- Thursday, March 7, 12:35 PM Burns Hargis, chairman of Chesapeake Energy's (CHK +3.4%) audit committee that conducted the probe into the financial dealings of outgoing CEO Aubrey McClendon, resigns from CHK's board. Louis Raspino, recent head of oil and gas driller Pride International, will fill the vacancy. 9 Comments [Energy, On the Move]
- Thursday, March 7, 9:06 AM Chesapeake Energy (CHK), seeking to sell as much as $7B in assets this year to plug a cash shortfall, plans to divest most of its stake in Clean Energy Fuels (CLNE). CHK's interest in the builder of filling stations that dispense gas-derived transport fuels will drop to 1.1% after the stock sale from the current level of 7.7%. CLNE -4.1% premarket. 7 Comments [Energy, On the Move]
- Monday, March 4, 2:59 PM Marathon Oil (MRO) hasn’t said publicly it’s searching for a successor to current CEO Clarence Cazalot, but Bloomberg says December's surprise resignation of its no. 2 man has it joining the growing ranks of energy firms seeking new leaders, including OXY, CHK, ECA, BBG and KKR's Samson Resources. With a bidding war looming, it's a good time to be an out-of-work energy exec. Comment! [Energy]
- Friday, March 1, 10:06 AM In what should not be a shock, Chesapeake Energy (CHK -3%) discloses the SEC is continuing its informal investigation of the company and has issued subpoenas for documents and testimony. The probe regards the practice of giving the CEO (departing next month) stakes in every well the company drills. 4 Comments [Energy, On the Move]
- Wednesday, February 27, 5:58 PM Along with its Q4 results, Western Gas (WES) announces it's buying a 33.75% interest in Marcellus shale gas gathering systems from Anadarko (APC) for $490M, and a similar interest in Marcellus gathering systems from Chesapeake (CHK) for $133.5M. The assets have a combined throughput of over 1.2 Bcf/d. WES plans to to finance the purchases with $220M in cash on hand, credit facility borrowings, and the issuing of 449K shares at an implied price of $54.55. (PR) 1 Comment [Energy, M&A]
- Monday, February 25, 6:53 PM Chesapeake (CHK) owes at least a hat tip to Canada for its role in the $1B joint venture with Sinopec (SNP); the government's stamp of approval for Cnooc’s (CEO) $15B takeover of Nexen (NXY) surely "gave a green light for upstream investment” from China. Late today, Cnooc's contentious takeover closed after it was first announced seven months ago. 7 Comments [Energy, Global & FX]
- Monday, February 25, 6:36 PM The verdict on Chesapeake's (CHK -6.8%) sale of Mississippi Lime assets is a nearly unanimous thumbs-down. The shale formation is less developed than the better-known Bakken and Eagle Ford, but Morningstar's Mark Hanson says the sale involves some of CHK's most promising acreage in the area. The deal may not bode well for others with sizable Mississippian stakes: SD -6.5%, MPO -6%. 9 Comments [Energy]
- Monday, February 25, 4:59 PM A major Michigan landowner sues Chesapeake Energy (CHK) and Encana (ECA), alleging the two energy companies colluded to rig bids for oil and gas rights in 2010. In earlier statements, CHK and ECA have acknowledged holding talks about forming a joint venture, but said no agreement was reached. Emails between Aubrey McClendon and ECA execs could prove damning. 3 Comments [Energy]
- Monday, February 25, 10:37 AM Chesapeake (CHK -2.8%) is obviously a distressed seller, so that helps explain why the $1B Sinopec (SNP +0.6%) paid to get into its Mississippi Lime acreage is below expectations. But the Mississippi Lime hasn’t shown great results: "It seems that foreign investors have been less willing over the last few years to come in and pay a large amount for unproven acreage,” Wells Fargo’s David Tameron says. 2 Comments [Energy, On the Move]
- Monday, February 25, 7:48 AM Chesapeake Energy (CHK) sells a 50% interest in its Mississippi Lime play to Sinopec (SNP) for $1.02B in cash. CHK -0.5% premarket. (PR) 1 Comment [Energy, On the Move]
- Thursday, February 21, 2:15 PM Not heard on Chesapeake's (CHK -0.9%) conference call: Aubrey McClendon. In another sign of change, CHK said it has hedged 50% of its projected 2013 natural gas production; a year ago, it hadn’t hedged any of its gas for 2012, and was clobbered as prices tanked. CFO Dominic Dell'Osso reiterated CHK's commitment to pay down debt, but still with $12B in long-term liabilities, Credit Suisse fears CHK may be backing away from its earlier $9.5B debt reduction target. 1 Comment [Energy]
- Thursday, February 21, 8:29 AM More on Chesapeake's (CHK) Q4 results: Net profit fell 36% Y/Y, hurt by debt buyback expenses and other items that offset strong revenue growth. Average daily production rose 9.3%, led by oil production, which grew to 15% of total production from 10%. For 2013, expects natural gas production to decline ~7% and liquids production to increase ~27%. CHK +1.7% premarket. 1 Comment [Energy, Earnings, On the Move]
- Thursday, February 21, 7:05 AM Chesapeake Energy (CHK): Q4 EPS of $0.26 beats by $0.12. (PR) 1 Comment [Earnings, Breaking News]

- Wednesday, February 20, 9:25 AM Chesapeake Energy (CHK) says its internal probe of the financial dealings of outgoing CEO Aubrey McClendon found no intentional wrongdoing. CHK also says its board concluded that no antitrust laws were violated in connection with the acquisition of Michigan oil and gas rights in 2010. CHK +1% premarket. 6 Comments [Energy]
