Continental Resources is built to lead, not to follow. As a privately held company with stable, long-term ownership, we have the freedom to think beyond convention, act with conviction, and invest with a horizon few others can match. That independence gives us the ability to pursue new ideas, advance innovation, strengthen our capabilities, and attract and retain exceptional talent. Combined with best-in-class technical expertise, operational excellence, and an unwavering commitment to financial discipline – that freedom sets Continental apart. We are not simply participating in the future of energy. We are helping shape it.
Our international expansion is defined by the same investment rigor that’s driving our success in the Lower 48.
It all starts with world-class rock. Today, we are partnering in Argentina and Turkey. Think of us as explorers with discipline and focus, using our unique experience and expertise to bring the world the energy it needs.
“The enduring strength of Continental lies in staying true to who we are while moving boldly toward what is next.”
Shelly Lambertz, Executive Chairman
“For 60 years, I’ve loved the idea of finding oil. I still love it.”

The acquisition of FireBird, which owns approximately 54,000 net acres in the Midland Basin, significantly expands Continental’s Permian Basin position and adds high-quality, oil-weighted production and development inventory adjacent to its existing operations.


The proposed transaction represents a significant expansion of Continental’s investment in Argentina and establishes another partnership with Mercuria.
