據世界石油2023年8月14日報道，美國頁巖先驅切薩皮克能源公司（Chesapeake Energy Corporation）已執行一項協議，將其在鷹福特頁巖遠景區持有的剩余資產以7億美元的價格出售給銀弓資源公司，從而使鷹福特頁巖遠景區退出的總收益超過35億美元。
切薩皮克能源公司已同意出售其位于Dimmit和Webb縣的鷹福特頁巖遠景區凝析油豐富部分的約42000凈英畝產區和約540口井，以及相關資產、工廠和設備。在今年第二季度，這些油田的平均油氣凈日產量約為29000桶油當量(60%為液體)，產生了大約5000萬美元的息稅前利潤。到2022年12月31日，與這些資產相關的凈探明儲量約為1.24億桶油當量。
切薩皮克能源公司預計這筆交易將在今年年內完成，有效交易日期自2023年2月1日算起。切薩皮克能源公司將在交易完成后獲得6.5億美元，最后5000萬美元的分期付款將在交易完成后一年內支付。銀弓資源公司還同意，如果紐約商交所WTI平均油價在每桶75美元至80美元之間，銀弓資源公司將向切薩皮克能源公司額外支付2500萬美元的或有款項，如果WTI紐約商交所平均價格在交易結束后的一年內高于80美元，銀弓資源公司將支付5000萬美元，這將使這筆交易的總收益增加到7.5億美元。切薩皮克能源公司預計，這些收益將用于進一步加強其資產負債表和股票回購計劃。
切薩皮克能源公司總裁兼首席執行官Nick Dell'Osso表示：“我們很高興成功完成了從鷹福特頁巖遠景區資產的退出，使我們能夠將資金和團隊集中在馬塞勒斯和海恩斯維爾頁巖產區的優質頁巖和回報上。”

Chesapeake Energy completes Eagle Ford exit with $700 million sale to SilverBow Resources
Chesapeake Energy Corporation has executed an agreement to sell its remaining Eagle Ford assets to SilverBow Resources, Inc. for $700 million, bringing the total proceeds from its Eagle Ford exit to more than $3.5 billion.
Chesapeake has agreed to sell approximately 42,000 net acres and approximately 540 wells in the condensate rich portion of its Eagle Ford asset located in Dimmit and Webb counties, along with related property, plant and equipment. During the second quarter of 2023, average net daily production from these properties was approximately 29,000 boe (60% liquid)m which generated approximately $50 million of EBITDAX. As of December 31, 2022, net proved reserves associated with these properties were approximately 124 MMboe.
Chesapeake expects the transaction will close in 2023, with an effective transaction date of February 1, 2023. The company will receive $650 million upon closing, with the final $50 million installment paid one year from the closing date. SilverBow has also agreed to pay Chesapeake an additional contingent payment of $25 million, should oil prices average between $75 and $80 per barrel WTI NYMEX or $50 million should WTI NYMEX prices average above $80 during the year following the close of the transaction, which could increase total proceeds of the deal to $750 million. Chesapeake anticipates the proceeds will be available to further strengthen its balance sheet and for its share repurchase program.
"We are pleased to have successfully completed the exit of our Eagle Ford asset, allowing us to focus our capital and team on the premium rock, returns and runway of our Marcellus and Haynesville positions," said Chesapeake President and Chief Executive Officer Nick Dell'Osso.
