CORRECTIONS: 7/1/14, 2:15 p.m. EDT. An initial version of this story misspelled the names of John Connally and Zackary Pullin. The third paragraph also misstated Vinson’s role on another deal for Devon Energy. We regret the errors.
Vinson & Elkins continued to ride the oil and gas energy M&A boom in North America this week, grabbing roles for private equity-backed Jupiter Resources on its $1.8 billion purchase of properties in Alberta from Canada’s Encana, as well as Devon Energy on its $2.3 billion sale of noncore U.S. natural gas assets to Linn Energy.
