In just a dozen years Newfield Exploration has grown from a promising upstart to one of the world's leading independent crude oil and gas exploration and production companies. Now consistently ranked among the top 12 operators in the Gulf of Mexico in terms of daily gross operated production volumes, Newfield has seen 6 straight years of 25% and greater compound annual growth rate in both reserves and production. And the aggressive Newfield team has no intention of slowing down. The company expects to continue its climb up the rankings via a growth strategy that balances acquisitions with drilling opportunities. Essential to this approach is a commitment to applying - across the organization, from the drilling platform to the data center-the best technology available, while preserving an independent's low cost structure and mindset.
