Linn Energy (LINE) business GSO/ Blackstone (BX) Linn Energy has a five- year $500 million agreement whereby GSO will earn up to a 15% RoR on wells drilled by LINE in exchange for providing 100% of the upfront drilling costs.
EXCO Resources (XCO) business KKR & Co (KKR) EXCO Resources struck a similar agreement with KKR & Co in July 2013 in the Eagle Ford.
Notable Quotes 2
Given a lack of material losses in the types of products banks are generally reluctant to materially reduce the RBLs of E&P especially during dislocations like the one we are seeing in oil right now.
This highlights the cost of capital problem that lower rated E&P companies now face - these are the real "have nots" in our minds.
