NEW DELHI: Reliance Industries (RIL) is selling some of the Eagle Ford shale gas project's ‘assets’ in the US for $100 million to Sundance Energy, marking the company's exit from the second shale gas venture as it sharpens focus on telecom.
The acreages and producing wells assets being hived off are located in Atascosa, La Salle, Live Oak and McMullen Counties of Texas and were not slated to be developed in the near term, the company said in a statement on Tuesday. RIL will retain its interest in the remaining core assets of the Eagle Ford project.
