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.
