Devon Energy Announces Strategic Exit of Canadian Business for CAD $3.8 Billion
Devon Energy Corp. announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Canadian business to Canadian Natural Resources Limited for CAD $3.8 billion, or USD $2.8 billion. This transaction is subject to customary terms and conditions and is expected to close by the end of the second quarter of 2019. Proceeds from the sale of Canada will be used for debt reduction.
“The sale of Canada is an important step in executing Devon’s transformation to a U.S. oil growth business,” said Dave Hager, president and CEO. “This transaction creates value for our shareholders by achieving a clean and timely exit from Canada, while accelerating efforts to focus exclusively on our high-return U.S. oil portfolio.
The company’s Canadian asset portfolio consists of heavy oil assets principally located in the province of Alberta, with net production averaging 113,000 oil-equivalent barrels in the first quarter of 2019. At year-end 2018, proved reserves associated with these properties amounted to approximately 409 million barrels of oil. Field-level cash flow accompanying these assets, which excludes overhead costs, totaled $236 million in 2018.
