U.S. Energy Development Corp. has been quietly strengthening its presence in the Permian Basin, having closed more than $500 million in deals in the region so far this year.

The Fort Worth-based E&P focused much of its acquisition and joint venture activity so far this year on the Delaware Basin, adding producing wells and future drilling inventory as part of a broader growth strategy, said U.S. Energy CEO Jordan Jayson.
