(Adds details on well costs, share price)
DENVER, May 5 (Reuters) - U.S. shale producer EOG
Resources on Friday said it may delay some well
completions in its Dorado natural gas play in Texas due to a low
price environment.
Natural gas prices tumbled around 50% at the start of this
year. On Friday Henry Hub futures were trading around $2.13 per
million British thermal units (mmBtu) .
The company said that well costs should increase no more
than 10% this year compared to 2022 as oilfield inflation has
shown signs of leveling off.
Shares of EOG were up 4.3% to $116.11 in early trading.
