Description: EC Ecopetrol October 16, 2025

Ecopetrol S.A. (NYSE: EC) is Colombia’s largest integrated oil and gas company, operating across four core segments: Exploration & Production, Transport & Logistics, Refining & Petrochemicals, and Electric Power Transmission & Toll-Road Concessions. The firm extracts and produces crude oil and natural gas, moves these and refined products through its pipeline network, refines at the Barrancabermeja and Cartagena complexes, and manages a portfolio of power-transmission lines and toll-road assets.

The company’s footprint extends beyond Colombia to other South-American markets, the United States, Central America, the Caribbean, Europe, and Asia, giving it exposure to multiple currency regimes and regional demand dynamics.

Key recent metrics (2023-2024) include an average crude output of roughly 800 k bbl/d, refining capacity of about 370 k bbl/d, a debt-to-equity ratio near 0.6, and a dividend yield that has hovered around 6 %-all of which are benchmarked against peers in the Integrated Oil & Gas GICS sub-industry. The firm’s cash-flow generation remains highly sensitive to Brent-linked oil prices and to the Colombian peso’s exchange rate, which together drive earnings volatility.

Primary economic drivers are the global oil price environment (particularly OPEC+ production decisions), domestic Colombian consumption trends, and the regulatory framework governing concessions for toll roads and power transmission. A shift toward renewable energy and stricter emissions standards could pressure the Refining & Petrochemicals segment, while the Transport & Logistics arm benefits from any increase in crude-oil throughput.
