Battalion Oil (BATL) – Among the Energy Stocks that Gained This Week

Core Insights - Battalion Oil Corporation (NYSE:BATL) experienced a significant share price increase of 309.02% from January 22 to January 29, 2026, marking it as one of the top-performing energy stocks during that week [1]. Company Overview - Battalion Oil Corporation is an independent energy company that focuses on the acquisition, production, exploration, and development of liquids-rich assets specifically in the Delaware Basin [2]. Recent Developments - On January 26, 2026, Battalion Oil's stock price surged after the company announced the termination of its gas treatment agreement with Wink Amine Treater due to the latter's acid gas injection facility being offline since August 2025. Battalion has since secured a new gas treating agreement with a large-cap midstream provider, alleviating previous output constraints [3]. - A significant facility expansion completed in Q4 2025 by the midstream provider now allows for the processing of all of Battalion's gas volumes from its Monument Draw Field. The facility is currently processing over 30 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) of gas production, a substantial increase from approximately 17.4 MMcf/d in December. This enhancement has resulted in an increase of about 1,200 net barrels per day in Battalion's average oil production for January [4].
