Oil Development
Energy XXI has made its name by finding and developing undervalued Gulf of Mexico oilfields abandoned by larger oil companies sometimes decades ago. Over the company's short history, Energy XXI has completed five major acquisitions totaling approximately $2.5 billion. As a result of this “acquire and exploit” strategy, the company holds approximately 179 million barrels of oil equivalent (BOE) in proved reserves. In terms of production, Energy XXI averages between 46,000 to 50,000 BOE per day.
