據油價網6月29日消息稱，根據路透社看到的文件，繼此前剝離二疊紀油氣資產的趨勢形成之后，雪佛龍在新墨西哥州和得克薩斯州出售了更多資產。

雪佛龍是該地區最大的地產所有者，擁有超過200萬英畝的土地，一段時間以來，雪佛龍一直在出售該地區的一些資產，這有助于石油和天然氣交易的增加。該公司還收購了同一地區的其他資產，并表示今年為二疊紀盆地的開發預留了40億美元。

上個月，雪佛龍簽署了一項協議，以63億美元的價格收購美國頁巖油公司PDC energy，收購其在Denver-Julesburg和二疊紀盆地現有資產附近的資產。

與此同時，雪佛龍在新墨西哥州拍賣了2000多英畝的土地，在新墨西哥州和得克薩斯州拍賣了近3萬英畝的土地，投標截止日期為7月27日。據路透社報道，通過這些拍賣獲得的土地價值估計為1億美元。

此次交易可能是為了剝離該地區價值較低的資產，并收購高性能資產——這是雪佛龍多年前就開始走的一條路，但這條路可能因新冠疫情而中斷或放緩。

雪佛龍還在與頁巖氣儲量豐富的阿爾及利亞就鉆探權進行談判，該協議可能在今年年底前敲定。

Chevron Looks To Dump More Permian Assets

Following a previously established trend of divesting Permian oil and gas assets, Chevron has put more assets up for grabs in New Mexico and Texas, according to documents seen by Reuters.

Chevron, the largest property owner in the area with over 2 million acres, has been offloading some assets in that region for a while, contributing to the pick up in oil and gas dealmaking. It has also picked up other assets in the same area, setting aside $4 billion for Permian basin development this year.

Last month, Chevron signed a deal to buy shale firm PDC energy for $6.3 billion—picking up assets next to its existing assets in the Denver-Julesburg and Permian Basins.

Meanwhile, Chevron has listed more than two thousand net acres for sale via auction in New Mexico, and nearly 30,000 acres in New Mexico and Texas, with bids due July 27. The value of the acreage up for grabs via these auctions is estimated at $100 million, Reuters suggested.

The dealmaking is likely a push to offload lower-valued assets in the area and pick up high-performance assets—a path that Chevron set out on years ago, but one that was potentially disrupted or slowed by the Covid pandemic.

Chevron is also in negotiations with shale-gas-rich Algeria over drilling rights there in a deal that could be finalized by the end of this year.
