Occidental Petroleum為購買Permian盆地斥資20億美元

Occidental Petroleum has acquired producing and non-producing leasehold acreage in the Permian basin from private sellers, the company said Monday. In a separate transaction, the company has also acquired interests in several Permian basin EOR properties.

According to the company, the leasehold acquisition includes approximately 35,000 net acres in Reeves and Pecos counties, Texas, in the Southern Delaware basin. The acreage yields about 7,000 boed of net production (72% oil) from 68 horizontal wells. Meanwhile, Occidental also acquired working interests in producing oil and gas CO2 floods and related EOR infrastructure, increasing the company’s ownership in several properties where it is the operator or an existing working interest partner. The total purchase price for these transactions is approximately $2 billion, which has been funded from existing cash on hand.
