SOCAR Enters Preliminary $1.65B Deal for Comstock's Haynesville Gas Assets
The State Oil Company of the Republic of Azerbaijan has signed an initial agreement to invest approximately $1.65 billion in Haynesville shale gas assets operated by Comstock.
The State Oil Company of the Republic of Azerbaijan has moved to acquire a significant position in the US natural gas sector through a preliminary transaction valued at approximately $1.65 billion.
Under the framework of the initial agreement, the national oil firm, widely known as SOCAR, will secure a stake in upstream natural gas assets situated across the prolific Haynesville shale formation.
The target acreage and operational footprint are managed by US exploration and production operator Comstock. The asset base provides direct exposure to one of North America's premier natural gas basins, strategically situated proximate to major industrial corridors and export gateways.
The multi-billion-dollar cross-border partnership highlights sustained international capital interest in upstream North American energy reserves, particularly assets linked to major gas-producing regions.
