In March 2018, Occidental divested non-core midstream assets for approximately $150 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain of approximately $40 million. In addition, Occidental classified approximately $100 million of non-core proved Permian acreage as assets held for sale at March 31, 2018.

In March 2018, Occidental issued $1.0 billion of 4.2-percent senior notes due 2048. Occidental received net proceeds of approximately $985 million. Interest on the notes will be payable semi-annually in arrears in March and September of each year, beginning on September 15, 2018. The proceeds were used to refinance the repayment of the $500 million aggregate principal amount of Occidental's 1.50-percent senior notes due in February 2018, with the remainder to be used for general corporate purposes.

In January 2018, Occidental entered into a new five-year, $3.0 billion revolving credit facility (2018 Credit Facility), which replaced theprevious credit facility, that was scheduled to expire in August 2019. The 2018 Credit Facility has similar terms to the previous credit facility and does not contain material adverse change clauses or debt ratings triggers that could restrict Occidental's ability to borrow under the facility.
