15.   Discontinued Operations

 

In May 2011, Devon completed the divestiture of its operations in Brazil. With the close of the Brazil transaction, Devon has substantially completed its planned offshore divestitures. In aggregate, Devon's U.S. and International offshore sales have generated total proceeds of $10 billion, or approximately $8 billion after-tax, assuming repatriation of a portion of the foreign proceeds under current U.S. tax law.

 

Revenues related to Devon's discontinued operations totaled $43 million in the first six months of 2011 and $222 million and $434 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2010, respectively. Devon did not have revenues related to its discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2011.

 

Earnings from discontinued operations in the second quarter and first six months of 2011 and 2010 were largely impacted by gains on Devon's International divestiture transactions. The following table presents the gains on the divestitures according to the quarters in which the divestitures closed in 2011 and 2010. The after-tax amounts in the table below exclude $744 million of income tax expense related to assumed repatriations discussed in Note 14.
