德文能源为专注3个页岩地区寻求出售更多资产

中国石化新闻网讯 据WENews.com网站3月26日休斯敦报道，美国著名独立油气生产商、美国最成功的页岩油气开发公司之一的德文能源公司(Devon Energy)26日表示，为了把其投资组合集中到3个页岩地区，该公司将寻求出售比其之前宣布数字更多的资产。

德文能源公司首席执行官戴夫·海格在新奥尔良举行的Scotia Howard Weil能源会议上说，由于德文能源公司把其油气作业精简到SCOOP/STACK、二叠纪和落基山地区，该公司现在寻求出售高达50亿美元的资产。

海格说：“我们时下正在为公司制订更具战略性的举措。我们正在进行大规模的投资组合简化。”

海格说，即使油价最近上涨，德文能源公司仍没有把今年的资本预算从22亿美元增加到24亿美元的计划。他补充说，额外的现金流将用于削减债务和提高股东的投资回报。

Devon Energy Eyes More Asset Sales

U.S. oil producer Devon Energy Corp said on Monday it was looking to sell even more assets than previously announced in order to focus its portfolio on three shale regions.

Devon is now eyeing asset sales of up to $5 billion as it streamlines operations to the SCOOP/STACK, Permian and Rocky Mountain areas, Dave Hager, Devon's chief executive, said at the Scotia Howard Weil energy conference in New Orleans.

"We are working on more strategic type moves for the company," Hager said. "We are working on portfolio simplification of a significant scale."

The company has no plans to increase its 2018 capital budget of $2.2 billion to $2.4 billion even with the recent rise in oil prices, said Hager, who added extra cash flow will be used to cut debt and boost shareholder returns.
