Devon Energy Monetizes Access Pipeline for CAD 1.4 Billion (USD 1.1 Billion); Additional CAD 150 Million (USD 120 Million) Payment with Future Expansion
Devon Energy Corp. announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell its 50 percent ownership interest in Access Pipeline to Wolf Midstream Inc., a portfolio company of Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, for CAD $1.4 billion, or USD $1.1 billion, using current exchange rates. The agreement also includes the potential for an incremental CAD $150 million payment with the sanctioning and development of a new thermal-oil project on Devon’s Pike lease in Alberta, Canada.

“With the highly-accretive sale of Access, Devon’s divestiture program is now complete with proceeds totaling $3.2 billion, surpassing the top end of our $2 billion to $3 billion guidance range,” said Dave Hager, president and CEO. “Furthermore, the divestiture proceeds significantly strengthen our investment-grade balance sheet and position us to further accelerate investment in our best-in-class U.S. resource plays, led by the STACK and Delaware Basin.”

Under terms of the sale agreement, Devon’s thermal-oil acreage is dedicated to Access Pipeline for an initial term of 25 years. A market-based toll will be applied to production from the Company’s three Jackfish projects, which are fully operational. As a result, Devon expects its lease operating expense at the Jackfish complex to increase by approximately USD $100 million on an annualized basis.

The agreement also includes the potential for the Access Pipeline toll to be reduced by as much as 30 percent with the development of new thermal-oil projects in the future. The Company’s next potential project is the first phase of Pike, which is located immediately adjacent to the Jackfish complex. Devon is the operator of this joint venture leasehold with a 50 percent working interest. Front-end engineering and design work at the first phase of Pike is complete, but the project has not been sanctioned.

The transaction is subject to regulatory approvals along with customary terms and conditions. Closing is expected in the third quarter of 2016. Bennett Jones LLP acted as legal advisor to Devon.
