Partnerships
Vitesse takes non-operated interests only with top-tier Bakken/Three Forks operators proven to deliver consistent cycle times, strong safety records, and repeatable EURs; in 2024 Vitesse emphasized partners with demonstrated capital efficiency. Alignment on development cadence and joint AFE sign-offs is required to protect IRR. Monthly AFE reviews and weekly joint operations meetings sustain performance and execution discipline.
Crude gathering, gas processing, and NGL marketing directly underpin realized pricing and uptime by securing collection, fractionation, and sales channels; these midstream links are essential as US crude production averaged 12.9 million b/d in 2024 (EIA). Contracts with reliable gatherers and processors minimize bottlenecks and flaring, while strong takeaway capacity narrows differentials. Coordinated maintenance schedules with partners protect delivered volumes and cashflow.
Access to working interests hinges on clean title and mutually negotiated terms with mineral and royalty owners, landmen, and title firms to secure assignment and operating rights. Partnerships streamline lease diligence, curative work, and DOI accuracy, reducing time-to-close and downstream disputes. Trust with mineral owners accelerates deal flow and repeat opportunities. Accurate ownership records reduce JIB and revenue disputes, preserving cash flow and partner relationships.
Capital providers, banks, and hedging counterparties
Revolver lenders and swap dealers provide liquidity and risk management, with 2024 macro rates (Fed funds 5.25–5.50%) shaping credit pricing and hedge costs; prudent leverage with fixed-price and basis hedges stabilizes cash flow through WTI’s 2024 average near 80 USD/bbl. Counterparty diversity reduces concentration risk and covenant alignment (loan-to-value and leverage covenants) enforces disciplined capital allocation.
- Liquidity providers: revolvers and banks
- Risk managers: swap dealers, hedge counterparties
- Diversification: lowers counterparty concentration
- Covenant alignment: enforces disciplined capital use
Regulatory bodies and ESG service providers
Regulatory bodies and ESG service providers ensure Vitesse Energy meets state and federal frameworks to maintain uninterrupted operations and reduce shutdown risk. Vendors deliver emissions monitoring, water stewardship and reporting tools that support compliance and operational optimization. Proactive engagement with regulators shortens permitting timelines and lowers fines while ESG partnerships boost credibility and access to >35 trillion USD in sustainable capital (2023).
- Compliance reduces operational risk
- Vendors: emissions, water, reporting
- Engagement cuts permitting delays
- ESG ties improve investor access
Vitesse partners only top-tier Bakken/Three Forks operators with proven cycle times, repeatable EURs and strict joint AFE sign-offs to protect IRR. Midstream partners secure gathering, processing and NGL marketing to limit differentials and flaring. Lenders, swap dealers and ESG vendors stabilize liquidity, hedges and compliance amid 2024 WTI ~80 USD/bbl and US crude 12.9M b/d.

What is included in the product
A concise, pre-written Business Model Canvas for Vitesse Energy outlining customer segments, channels, value propositions, key activities, partners, resources, cost structure and revenue streams across the 9 BMC blocks; designed for presentations, investor discussions and strategic planning with linked SWOT insights and competitive advantages.
High-level, editable canvas that distills Vitesse Energy’s value chain and revenue drivers into a single page, quickly relieving strategic ambiguity and alignment pain points for teams and investors.
Activities
Source, underwrite and close WI/ORRI packages across core Bakken benches, focusing on benches with inventory depth >200 locations and top-decile operators such as Continental, Chevron and ConocoPhillips.
Target a PDP/PUD mix ~60/40 to balance cash flow and upside, pursue deal IRR >20% and use collars, hedges and contingent payments to protect downside.
Structure step-ups and optioned acreage to preserve optionality and integrate assets via API-driven marketing and reporting, covering ~90% of volumes and targeting a 5–8% lift in realized pricing.
We prioritize capital allocation by selecting wells targeting IRRs above 30% and timing AFE participation to keep the reinvestment rate near 60–70%, optimizing portfolio returns. AFEs are continuously triaged using type curves, per-well costs and spacing to enforce payout thresholds (typically 12–18 months) and hard capital limits. Post-drill actuals are tracked versus pre-drill forecasts with KPI variance targets for EUR and cost under 10%.
We maintain operator/zone/completion vintage type curves across ~1,200 wells, refreshed monthly using 2024 12‑month strip pricing (~$75/bbl) and historical production; first‑year declines typically 60–70% with subsequent tailing rates tracked for EUR updates. We monitor decline profiles, LOE trends (running ~$8/BOE in 2024 peer medians) and differentials, and benchmark via offset analysis plus machine‑learning screens. EURs and PV‑10 are updated for reserves audits, adjusting PV‑10 by 5–15% per vintage based on 2024 price‑deck stress tests.
Commodity risk management
Vitesse deploys swaps, collars and basis hedges to smooth cash flows, targeting 60–80% of PDP coverage for the next 12 months. Risk limits and VaR-based exposure caps are enforced and programs are stress-tested under -30% price shocks and widened basis scenarios. Coordination with lenders secures 6–12 months liquidity cushions and covenant compliance.
- Hedge tools: swaps, collars, basis
- Coverage target: 60–80% PDP
- Stress tests: -30% price, widened basis
- Lender coordination: 6–12 months liquidity
Portfolio optimization and A&D recycling
Vitesse prioritizes divesting non-core, high-LOE or gassy assets to fund higher-return inventory, trading into stronger operators and faster development cadence while keeping optionality via continuous market surveillance; 1031-like tax planning is used where applicable (since 2018 IRC Section 1031 limits exchanges to real property) to defer tax on like-kind real estate swaps.
- Divest non-core assets
- Trade into better operators
- Use 1031-like real property planning
- Continuous market surveillance
Source and close WI/ORRI packages in core Bakken benches with inventory >200 locations, targeting top operators (Continental, Chevron, COP) and deal IRR >20%.
Maintain PDP/PUD ~60/40, target IRR >20%, protect downside with swaps, collars and contingent payments; 2024 strip ~$75/bbl.
Operate monthly-updated type curves across ~1,200 wells; first-year declines 60–70%, LOE ~$8/BOE (2024 peer median).
Hedge 60–80% PDP, enforce VaR limits and 6–12 month liquidity cushions; divest non-core assets to fund high-IRR inventory.
