Oct 7 (Reuters) - Chevron ( CVX ) said on Monday it

would sell its non-operated interest in the Athabasca Oil Sands

project and its operated interest in Duvernay shale, all located

in Alberta, Canada, to Canadian Natural Resources ( CNQ ) for

$6.5 billion.

The all-cash transaction, expected to close during the

fourth quarter of 2024, is part of the company's plan to divest

$10 billion to $15 billion of assets by 2028.

The assets together contributed 84,000 barrels of oil

equivalent per day (boepd) of production to Chevron ( CVX ) in 2023.
