Matador Resources Company’s focus is to create a risk balanced portfolio of exploration opportunities for oil and gas in unconventional resource plays, supplemented with exploration for more conventional targets.  We concentrate our exploration efforts primarily on known hydrocarbon-producing areas with well-established production histories offering the potential for multiple-zone completions. During the last few years, we have concentrated on the Haynesville Shale play and more recently on the Eagle Ford Shale play.

Our principal areas of operation consist of:

• South Texas – Eagle Ford Shale


• Northwest Louisiana and east Texas – Haynesville Shale, including the Middle Bossier Shale, and the traditional Cotton Valley and Hosston (Travis Peak) plays


• Southwest Wyoming, northeast Utah and southeast Idaho – the Meade Peak Shale


• Southeast New Mexico and west Texas – Delaware and Midland Basins
