- Impact of horizontal development on well economics, capital efficiency and future development inventory;
- Infrastructure and operating requirements to transition more activity from traditional vertical development to horizontal development;
- How Ring’s recent equity offering strengthens financial flexibility and supports the Company’s long-term strategy to reduce leverage, fund organic growth and pursue high-return development opportunities; and
