The total CapEx budget among these four companies will amount to 542 MM this year, with a total of 9 rigs running to drill 35 wells throughout the year.
Sanchez Energy Corp.Sanchez Energy is spending 65 MM in the TMS, and currently owns 40,000 acres there. Planning 4 gross wells using 1.3 rigs, the company is still in the exploration phase of development in this play, but has been encouraged by high well IP rates on nearby acreage.
