Enerplus agreed to buy Williston Basin assets from Hess Corporation for US$312 million cash (78,700 net acres in Dunn County, North Dakota, about 6,000 BOE/day), expected to close in May 2021. It will use about US$150 million of existing cash and borrow the rest on its bank facility, which it plans to enlarge up to US$900 million. It also raised 2021 production guidance to 111,000-115,000 BOE/day and set a five-year outlook with capital spending of about $500 million a year from 2022 to 2025. The release states it will aim to grow the base dividend and consider share repurchases.

Enerplus closed the share offering announced January 25, issuing 33,062,500 common shares at C$4.00 for gross proceeds of C$132,250,000, including the full over-allotment option. This adds to the share count and, with the US$400 million term loan, is meant to pay for the US$465 million Bruin acquisition; if that deal fails, the money goes to capex, repaying near-term senior note maturities and general purposes.
