It examines customer segments and value propositions alongside channels and customer relationships, then links revenue streams to key resources, key activities, key partnerships and cost structure. For Chord Energy, useful questions include how hydrocarbon sales depend on reliable field operations, how gathering or pipeline options influence access to buyers, and how drilling, production and transport costs shape the economics of each volume.

Rivalry can affect competition for acreage, services, talent and market access. Supplier power matters where drilling, completion, processing or transport capacity is limited, while buyer power can arise in commodity marketing arrangements and local takeaway options. The threat of new entrants concerns the capital, technical and regulatory barriers to building viable production businesses. Substitutes are broader alternatives that meet energy needs, including other fuels and lower-carbon energy options, not simply another producer.

Price focuses on benchmark exposure, differentials, contract terms and the role that hedging analysis may play in evaluating cash-flow predictability.

Technological developments may affect drilling efficiency, data use, emissions monitoring or field productivity.
