Gulfport Energy Corporation (GPOR) is an independent exploration and production company focused on the development of natural gas, crude oil, and natural gas liquids within the United States. The company’s core operational assets are concentrated in the Appalachian Basin, specifically the Utica and Marcellus formations in Ohio, and the SCOOP Woodford and Springer formations in Oklahoma.
Operating as an upstream entity, Gulfport’s business model relies on the geological assessment and extraction of hydrocarbons from shale plays. The company operates in a capital-intensive sector where profitability is highly sensitive to regional basis differentials and the prevailing market prices for natural gas and crude oil. Investors can further evaluate these market sensitivities and valuation metrics on ValueRay. Gulfport Energy was incorporated in 1997 and maintains its corporate headquarters in Oklahoma City.
