Devon & Chevron Natural Gas for Stock Swap

Oklahoma City, OK (AHN) - Devon Energy Corporation and Chevron reached an agreement to swap 14.2 million shares of Chevron common stock Devon owned for an interest in a coalbed natural gas field and $280 million in cash.

It produces the equivalent of 40 million cubic feet of natural gas daily.

Oklahoma City-based Devon Energy Corp. is listed in the S&P 500 index and it is the largest U.S.-based independent oil and gas producer.
