Whit Myers, senior vice president of land and business development at Hibernia Resources III LLC, is today’s featured Forty Under 40 honoree.
Myers joined Hibernia in 2017, the same year the Houston-based E&P received a $250 million commitment from Natural Gas Partners.
“When we started Hibernia in late 2017, we had no assets and a strong preference to focus our efforts on the Midland Basin,” he said. “It took a lot of patience and persistence to find the right deals to build a sizable and contiguous position we are developing today.”
Previously, Myers served as land and business development manager for Plantation Petroleum Co. where he worked the Permian Basin and managed land and A&D efforts in Texas and New Mexico. He began his career as a landman with Exco Resources, working a variety of conventional and unconventional properties primarily in the East Texas and North Louisiana region.
