Devon to Score $1.0 Billion from New Asset Sales; More Planned
Devon Energy has entered into definitive agreements with undisclosed parties to monetize nearly $1 billion of non-core upstream assets in east Texas, the Anadarko Basin and an overriding royalty interest in the northern Midland Basin. These transactions are subject to customary terms and conditions and are expected to close in the third quarter of 2016. The Company expects to incur minimal taxes associated with these transactions.
Dave Hager, president and CEO, said: "Combined with other recent asset sales, we have now announced $1.3 billion of gas-focused upstream divestitures. As we've said previously, proceeds from these tax-efficient transactions will be utilized to further strengthen our investment-grade financial position. With oil prices having moved in our favor throughout the sales process, we are encouraged by the interest and progress in marketing our remaining non-core oil assets in the Midland Basin and Access Pipeline in Canada. Proceeds for the entire divestiture program are well on their way to achieving our previously announced range of $2 billion to $3 billion in 2016."

Additionally, Devon is in advanced negotiations to sell its 50 percent interest in the Access Pipeline in Canada. An announcement is anticipated within the next several weeks.
