Berry Petroleum Co

(BRY)

Berry Petroleum Company is an independent energy company engaged in the production, development, acquisition, exploitation and exploration of crude oil and natural gas. Publicly traded since 1987, Berry’s primary operations are in three of the largest oil basins in the United States. Berry traces its roots to California where it began producing heavy oil from the San Joaquin basin in 1909.

In 2003, Berry added the Uinta basin in northeastern Utah, which has seen a resurgence of activity over the past year. Berry has also acquired significant oil assets in the Permian basin in West Texas.
