据世界石油网俄克拉荷马城报道，美国德文能源公司(Devon Energy Corp.)日前宣布，该公司已完成把其在加拿大的业务以28亿美元的价格出售给了加拿大自然资源有限公司(Canadian Natural Resources Limited)。
在调整购买价格和与出售相关的估计税收以后，德文能源公司获得了25亿美元的净收入。德文能源公司计划把净出售收入连同加拿大大约5亿美元的现金余额汇回美国国内偿还债务。
为了完成公司向高回报的美国石油增长业务的转型，德文能源公司继续推进其在德克萨斯州北部巴奈特页岩盆地的天然气资产的剥离进程。巴奈特页岩盆地的天然气资产目前正在进行销售，德文能源公司预计在今年年底前退出这些资产。

Devon Energy completes sale of Canadian business
Devon Energy Corp. has announced that it has completed the sale of its Canadian business to Canadian Natural Resources Limited for $2.8 billion. Devon received net proceeds of $2.5 billion, after adjusting for purchase price adjustments and estimated taxes associated with the sale. The company plans to repatriate the net sales proceeds along with Canadian cash balances of approximately $500 million to the U.S. to repay debt.
To complete the company’s transformation to a high-return U.S. oil growth business, Devon continues to advance the divestiture process for its Barnett Shale gas assets in north Texas. The Barnett assets are currently being marketed and the company expects to exit the assets by the end of 2019.
