On Wednesday, Murphy Oil Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MUR#NYSE">MUR</a>) disclosed that its subsidiary had signed a Purchase and Sale deal to acquire floating production storage and offloading vessel (FPSO) from BW Offshore for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/44289461">gross purchase price of $125 million.</a>
The purchase includes an initial $100 million payment upon delivery by first quarter of 2025, with the remaining balance upon meeting contractual obligations (expected by second-quarter of 2025).

Outlook: Murphy reaffirmed its 2025 capital expenditure guidance of $1.135 billion–$1.285 billion and for the first quarter at $425 million.
Eric M. Hambly, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, &#8221;By acquiring the FPSO and restructuring our contract, we will achieve a material reduction in operating costs of nearly $60 million annually with a payback of about two years independent of oil price, while enhancing returns for future infield development and exploration and increasing net proved developed reserves by approximately 8 million barrels of oil equivalent.&#8221;
