Associated Press Mission Resources to Sell Oil Fields 07.05.2005, 08:39 AM
Mission Resources Corp. said Tuesday that it agreed to sell its non-operating interest in two oil fields to XTO Energy Inc. for $56.5 million in cash.
The Goldsmith and Wasson oil fields, located in Ector and Yoakum Counties, Texas, produce about 1,000 barrels of oil daily. Mission said that it will hold the proceeds as cash until it is acquired by Petrohawk Energy Corp. The acquisition is expected to close by the third quarter.
"We believe that this sale will better align Mission's strategic goals of decreasing unit operating expense and raising our percentage of operated properties," said Robert L. Cavnar, Mission chairman, president and chief executive, in a statement. "Our successful 2005 drilling efforts are expected to more than offset the modest daily production being sold."
Petrohawk, an independent oil and gas company, agreed in April to buy Mission for $135 million plus stock and assumed debt.
