EOG Resources To Buy Encino Acquisition Partners In $5.6 Bln Cash, Debt Deal

On May 30, 2025, EOG Resources announced a $5.6 billion deal to acquire Encino Acquisition Partners, expanding in the Utica shale region.
EOG pursued the acquisition to increase its Utica position by 675,000 net acres, bringing its total to 1.1 million acres with over 2 billion barrels equivalent resources.
Encino operated 1,068 wells in eastern Ohio, producing nearly 48% of the state's oil in 2024 and forming a contiguous 485,000-acre liquids-rich zone.
EOG CEO Ezra Yacob stated that the purchase significantly expands their prime holdings in the Utica region, establishing a new core area for the company alongside its Delaware Basin and Eagle Ford operations.
The deal is anticipated to finalize sometime in the latter half of 2025, targeting $150 million in first-year cost synergies and reinforcing EOG’s role as a leading operator in the Utica shale region.
