Southwestern Loses $608M in 2Q, Drills First 3 Utica Wells

Southwestern Energy issued its second quarter 2021 update last Friday. Southwestern produced 276 billion cubic feet equivalent (Bcfe) during 2Q, up from 201 Bcfe in 2Q20 (before it acquired Montage Resources). That works out to be 3.0 Bcf/d, of which 79% (2.4 Bcf/d) was natural gas and the rest was liquids (NGLs). Like EQT, Antero, and other major M-U drillers, Southwestern blew it on "unsettled derivatives" during the quarter. The company posted a $608 million loss for the quarter overall, losing $772 million on derivatives.
