The deal marks yet another consolidation in the sourcing, transportation and processing of LNG, this time in the Marcellus and Utica Shales. The Lawbook has the names of the Texas lawyers involved.

The combination would create a leader in the oil and gas mineral and royalty sector. Claire Poole has the details of the deal and the names of the lawyers involved.

If you need some perspective on the wild swings in the oil and gas industry over the past few years, look no further than Plano-based Denbury Resources. Denbury, which sought bankruptcy protection just a few years ago, is suddenly looking prosperous enough to be scouting for a viable suitor, according to Bloomberg. Claire Poole reports on the Denbury rebound, as well as a slate of a dozen deals reported to the Roundup last week.
