Bill Barrett Corporation is an oil and gas company focused on developing and exploring properties in the Rocky Mountain region, based in Denver, Colorado and founded in March 2002. It began operations in the Wind River Basin and expanded its portfolio by acquiring undeveloped leaseholds and several producing properties with substantial undeveloped acreage across multiple basins, including Uinta, Wind River, Powder River, Williston, and later Piceance. Following asset sales in late 2014, the company narrowed its focus to two development assets located in the Denver-Julesburg Basin in Colorado and the Uinta Basin in Utah. The organization acts as a regional independent operator with assets concentrated in the Rocky Mountain states. In 2017, Bill Barrett merged with Fifth Creek Energy, and the merged entity is described as HighPoint Resources in later reporting, reflecting corporate evolution beyond the original firm.
