Abandoned Assets

In 2023, management determined a stand-alone produced water handling facility was no longer economically beneficial to the operations of the Company, and the well was shut-in and taken out of service. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recognized an additional $0.3 million of plugging and abandonment

expense related to this well, which is included in “Abandoned Well Costs” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Abandoned Projects

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded $0.7 million in abandoned project expense related to the write-off of permits for water handling facilities and right-of-way easements that either expired prior to use or that we no longer planned to use for future projects. This is recorded in “Other Operating Expense, Net” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
