California Resources to Boost Drilling as Q1 Production Hits 154 MBoe/d

California Resources Corporation (CRC) on Tuesday reported a robust start to 2026, delivering first-quarter average net production of 154 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day.The company's output remained heavily weighted toward liquids, with oil accounting for 81% of total volumes.While the quarter was strong, the company noted that higher crude prices triggered adjustments in its production sharing contracts, resulting in a volume reduction.Despite this technical headwind, CRC is moving to capitalize on the current price environment by significantly increasing its drilling activity for the second half of the year.The producer now targets a 2026 gross production exit rate of approximately 175 MBoe/d, which would represent a 1% entry-to-exit growth rate for the year."With higher oil prices and an attractive drilling return portfolio, we see a clear opportunity to accelerate development across our multi-decade resource inventory. As a result, we are adding incremental drilling activity this year," stated Francisco Leon, CRC's President and Chief Executive Officer.

RBC Capital Markets Raises Commodity Price Outlook for 2026-28

RBC Capital Markets has raised its commodity price outlook due to the potentially long-lasting impact of the conflict between the US and Iran.The analysts said the tightening of supply and demand fundamentals has prompted them to raise their 2026-2028 equilibrium price for Brent/WTI by $10 to $80/$75 and Henry Hub natural gas by $0.25 to $4.00 per million cubic feet."This move reflects ongoing collateral damage in the Gulf region and a rising call on barrels globally from an energy security standpoint," RBC's research note said.It added that share buy-back activities were likely to slow given the recent sharp rise in equities valuations, up by more than 50% in the calendar year so far.In terms of trading ideas, RBC highlighted ConocoPhillips (COP) and EOG Resources (EOG) among large players, California Resources (CRC), Permian Resources (PR) and Chord Energy Group (CHRD) among small to medium and Expand Energy Corp (EXE) in gas.RBC said it had raised its EPS-to-cash flow per share estimates by an average 45% to reflect its revised commodity price expectations with oil players in this basket generally up closer to 55%.In keeping with this, price targets have been raised 27% on average, the note said.
