Divestitures

During the second quarter of 2018, Devon sold a portion of its Barnett Shale assets, primarily located in Johnson County for $553 million ($481 million after customary purchase price adjustments). Estimated proved reserves associated with these assets are approximately 10% of total proved reserves. The transaction resulted in an adjustment to Devon’s capitalized costs with no gain recognized in the consolidated statement of earnings. In conjunction with the divestiture, Devon settled certain gas processing contracts and recognized an approximately $40 million settlement expense, which is included in asset dispositions within the consolidated statement of earnings.

In June 2018, Devon announced the sale of its aggregate ownership interests in EnLink and the General Partner for approximately $3.1 billion. The proceeds from the sale will be utilized to increase Devon’s share repurchase program to $4.0 billion, which is discussed further in Note 18. Devon completed the sale of its interests in EnLink and the General Partner in July 2018 and expects to recognize a gain of approximately $2.5 billion in the third quarter. Additional information on these discontinued operations can be found in Note 19.
