Expand Energy to move headquarters to Houston a year after Chesapeake-Southwestern merger

Expand Energy’s move aims to enhance industry ties and leverage Houston’s global natural gas market role while keeping its 500-strong Oklahoma City workforce intact.

  • According to the Feb. 9, 2026 update, Expand Energy announced it will relocate its headquarters from Oklahoma City to Houston and appointed its Chairman as interim CEO.
  • Following the week of February 3-9, 2026, Expand Energy, created in 2024 from a Chesapeake Energy and Southwestern Energy Company merger, is relocating to Houston.
  • Company executives said the move will strengthen relationships with key partners and leverage Houston's energy ecosystem as a gateway to the global natural gas market.
  • The company pledged to support its Oklahoma City employees and the local community, as Nick Dell stepped down as a director and will serve as an external advisor, with no mention of workforce size.
  • The board said these decisions position Expand Energy for its next stage of growth, with the relocation expected to be completed in 2026.
