Ecopetrol is Colombia's national oil company and the largest company in the country by market cap. It operates across the oil, gas, and petrochemical value chain and has a growing renewables portfolio. The Petro government's opposition to new oil exploration contracts has created a reserve-replacement overhang that will weigh on long-term production; near-term, existing reserves continue to generate strong free cash flow. Attractive dividend yield (~8%) reflects both the cash generation and the political discount. ISA (transmission infrastructure) acquisition adds regulated earnings.
