Prairie Operating Co. PROP
Prairie Operating Co. (the "Company," "we," "our" or "us") is an independent oil and natural gas company focused on the acquisition and development of crude oil, natural gas, and NGLs. Our assets and operations are
strategically located in the oil region of rural Weld County, Colorado, within the Denver–Julesburg Basin in Colorado (the "DJ Basin"). We believe the DJ Basin to be one of the premier resource plays in the United States ("U.S."), as Weld
County boasts some of the lowest break–even prices in the U.S., and has a long production history that has proven and consistent results. The productivity of this resource is demonstrated by the integral role that Weld County holds in
Colorado's energy economy, having produced 83% of Colorado's oil production as of December 2025.
