Under the terms of the transactions, Civitas has agreed to purchase a portion of Tap Rock’s Delaware Basin assets and all of Hibernia’s Midland Basin assets.
Both Tap Rock and Hibernia are portfolio companies of funds managed by NGP.
Reuters was the first to report that Civitas was in advanced talks with NGP to buy the Permian Basin-focused assets.

The deals are expected to close in the third quarter of 2023.
