ConocoPhillips profit up 38% on asset-sale gain
ConocoPhillips' /quotes/zigman/294662/delayed/quotes/nls/cop COP +0.66% third-quarter earnings increased 38% as the exploration-and-production company's results were boosted by a gain on an asset sale.
The company is in the midst of a three-year repositioning in which it has shed billions of dollars in assets and is planning to divest itself of more operations as it seeks to focus on fast-growing shale plays in the U.S.
The quarter included gains from asset sales of the Clyden undeveloped oil sands leasehold in Canada and the Phoenix Park midstream asset in Trinidad and Tobago. The company has also unveiled plans to sell its interest in the North Caspian Sea Production Sharing Agreement as well as its Algeria and Nigeria businesses, deals that are expected to generate about $8.9 billion in proceeds.
