Civitas Resources has wrapped up the previously announced acquisition of Bison Oil & Gas II, a Denver-Julesburg Basin (DJ Basin) operator.

The Colorado-based oil and gas company said that the consideration for the deal was changed to reflect an all-cash transaction worth around $300 million.

Originally, the consideration was $346 million as per the agreement signed last month. It included a cash payment of $45 million, assumption of debt and other liabilities of up to $176 million plus 2.3 million of Civitas Resources’ shares.
