3 Oil And Gas Stocks Worth Watching As Oil Prices Slip

Energy markets are caught between fear and relief as the Strait of Hormuz stays constrained, talks with Iran inch forward and oil prices slip below triple digits. That mix creates real winners and losers across global Oil & Gas Producers, and you do not want to spot the ripple effects after everyone else has reacted. This article explains how three specific stocks from our screener are currently wired into this story.

The three stocks below are just a sample, and the full screen surfaced 33 more Global Oil & Gas Producers with similarly detailed stories that are not covered here. If you want to identify, compare and analyze the highest conviction opportunities wired to today’s crude market, head straight into the Global Oil & Gas Producers screener.

Texas Pacific Land (TPL)

Overview: Texas Pacific Land earns royalties and water service fees from its extensive Permian Basin acreage, tying its fortunes closely to upstream oil activity.

Operations: Texas Pacific Land generated about US$553 million from Land and Resource Management and US$344 million from Water Services and Operations, entirely within the United States.

Market Cap: US$25.3b

Texas Pacific Land gives you indirect exposure to the Global Oil & Gas Producers theme, because its royalties and water business respond to how aggressively operators drill across the Permian rather than to pump prices alone.

"Reliance on oil royalties and Permian Basin activity faces long-term risks from decarbonization, reserve declines, and regulatory challenges, which may affect growth and margin stability."

What happens to Texas Pacific Land’s rich royalty economics if a single key assumption about future Permian development intensity changes?

If that single assumption matters to you, read the full narrative for Texas Pacific Land to see how Texas Pacific Land’s royalty engine could accelerate or stall under different drilling paths.

Medco Energi Internasional (IDX:MEDC)

Overview: Medco Energi Internasional is an Indonesia based oil and gas explorer and producer with additional power, mining, and services operations.

Operations: Medco Energi Internasional generates about US$1.95b from exploration and production, with additional revenue from trading, power, and services across Asia, Indonesia, Africa, and the Middle East.

Market Cap: IDR36.2 trillion

For a screener focused on large oil and gas producers whose fortunes move with global crude volumes, Medco Energi Internasional brings a mix of upstream exposure and contracted energy sales that ties its prospects to both commodity swings and long term project execution.

"On May 21 to 22, 2026, MEDC officially signed a gas commercialization agreement from the Sakakemang and Corridor Blocks worth USD 1.296 billion."

What happens to Medco Energi Internasional’s earnings profile if a single assumption around contracted volumes and pricing in that gas deal shifts?

If that kind of contract risk is on your mind, read the full narrative for Medco Energi Internasional to see how Medco Energi Internasional’s gas deals could accelerate or stall future cash generation.

Vista Energy. de (BMV:VISTA A)

Overview: Vista Energy. de is a Latin American explorer and producer focused on developing oil and gas fields in Argentina’s Vaca Muerta shale.

Operations: Vista Energy. de generates about US$3.5b in revenue from exploration and production of crude oil, natural gas and LPG.

Market Cap: MX$133.9b

Vista Energy. de gives you direct upstream exposure within the Global Oil & Gas Producers theme, with cash flows closely tied to international crude benchmarks and a growing export footprint from Argentina.

"Very low lifting costs of $4.4 per BOE and ongoing initiatives in contracts and technology to reduce drilling and completion costs from around $12.8 million per long lateral well support the potential for resilient net margins, even when benchmark prices are volatile."

What matters next is how one unseen pressure on Vista Energy. de’s realized pricing shapes the durability of those margin advantages over time.

That pricing pressure is exactly where the story gets interesting, and the full narrative for Vista Energy. de shows how Vista Energy. de’s low costs could turn that squeeze into accelerating upside potential.
