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

The share price of Battalion Oil Corporation (NYSE:BATL) surged by 309.02% between January 22 and January 29, 2026, putting it among the Energy Stocks that Gained the Most This Week.

Battalion Oil Corporation (NYSE:BATL) is an independent energy company focused on the acquisition, production, exploration, and development of liquids-rich assets in the Delaware Basin.

Battalion Oil Corporation (NYSE:BATL) skyrocketed on January 26 after the company revealed that it had terminated its gas treatment agreement with Wink Amine Treater after the latter’s acid gas injection facility went offline in August 2025 and failed to resume operations. Instead, Battalion has now secured a new gas treating agreement with a large-cap midstream provider, effectively removing the bottleneck that had constrained its output for the past several months.

Thanks to a significant facility expansion completed in Q4 2025, the midstream provider can now process all of Battalion Oil Corporation (NYSE:BATL)’s gas volumes from its Monument Draw Field. The facility is now processing more than 30 MMcf/d of the company’s gas production, up significantly from an average of approximately 17.4 MMcf/d in December. This has directly translated to an increase of approximately 1,200 net barrels per day in Battalion’s average oil production month-to-date in January.
