Bill Barrett Corporation is an exploration and production company primarily engaged in the development and production of oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids, with a focus on assets located in the Denver-Julesburg Basin of Colorado and the Uinta Basin of Utah. Founded in 2002 and headquartered in Denver, Colorado, the company operates in multiple basins within the Rocky Mountain region of the United States. Its core products encompass crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids produced from its extensive portfolio of development and exploratory properties. Bill Barrett Corporation completed a significant strategic combination with Fifth Creek Energy Company, LLC in early 2018, resulting in a name change to HighPoint Resources Corporation, which marked a major business transformation emphasizing a focus on high-quality oil assets in the DJ Basin for substantial growth. This merger, valued at approximately $650 million, also involved an equity restructuring that positioned Fifth Creek Energy as the majority shareholder. The company operates under HighPoint Resources as a subsidiary of Civitas Resources, Inc., reflecting a broader corporate evolution and expansion in its business operations and geographic range within U.S. oil and gas markets. Bill Barrett Corporation continues to streamline its portfolio to emphasize high-return oil growth assets and enhance operational efficiency in its targeted basins.
