OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oil and gas producer GMX Resources Inc. on Friday said it has agreed to sell a 40 percent interest in its gas gathering and compression business to Kinder Morgan Energy Partners LP for $36 million.
GMX said that this move will fund the addition of a second rig to the Haynesville/Bossier Shale horizontal drilling program.
The gas gathering and compression business provides gathering services to the company in its Cotton Valley Sands and Haynesville/Bossier Shale horizontal developments in East Texas.
