Q2 FY26
TL;DR. Murphy Oil raised its 2026 CAPEX midpoint to $1.55B to fund Bubale appraisal and Eagle Ford acceleration, reported Q2 production of 169,000 BOEPD at the upper end of guidance with $110M free cash flow, announced the Bubale oil discovery in Côte d'Ivoire with first appraisal well spud, and cut the Hai Su Vang resource estimate to 200–300 MMBOE after a dry hole while keeping Vietnam peak production guidance unchanged.
Bullish
- + Raised 2026 CAPEX midpoint from $1.25B to $1.55B to fund Bubale appraisal and Eagle Ford growth
- + Announced oil discovery at Bubale-1X in Côte d'Ivoire with first appraisal well already spud
- + Q2 production of 169,000 BOEPD exceeded the midpoint of guidance and generated $110M of free cash flow
- + Hai Su Vang remains a material 200–300 MMBOE opportunity, ~2–3x the size of Lac Da Vang, with Vietnam peak production outlook unchanged at 30,000–50,000 BOEPD
- + Strong balance sheet with $2.48B liquidity, leverage below 1x, and $550M remaining under share repurchase authorization
Bearish
- − Hai Su Vang-4X was a dry hole, forcing a downward revision of the Hai Su Vang resource estimate
- − Management flagged Vietnam peak production could land near the lower end of the 30,000–50,000 BOEPD range
- − Management expects modest or potentially negative free cash flow between now and first oil at Hai Su Vang / Bubale development
- − No share repurchases in Q2 despite higher commodity prices
