Penn Virginia Corp. will snap up assets in the Eagle Ford Shale in South Texas for $205 million from Devon Energy Corp., the company said Monday.
The Houston oil producer's purchase of assets in Lavaca County included 19,600 net acres adjacent to its operations in the region, which means it can drill longer horizontal sections and cut its breakeven costs in some areas to $30 a barrel.
