             DEVON ENERGY'S NET EARNINGS SOAR 460 PERCENT:
            SECOND QUARTER 2000 EARNINGS PER SHARE TOP $1.00


OKLAHOMA CITY, OKLAHOMA, JULY 27, 2000--Devon Energy Corporation (AMEX:
DVN, TSE: NSX) today reported record revenues and net earnings for the
quarter ended June 30, 2000. Record second quarter oil and gas production
and higher product prices led to the increases in revenues and net
earnings. For the quarter ended June 30, 2000, net earnings were $90.7
million or $1.02 per common share ($1.00 per diluted common share). This
compares to second quarter 1999 net earnings of $16.2 million or 33 cents
per common share.

Net earnings for the first six months of 2000 were $151.8 million or $1.70
per share ($1.67 per diluted share), also record highs. This compares to
net earnings of $22.2 million or 46 cents per common share in the first six
months of 1999.

HIGHER PRODUCTION AND PRICES PUSH REVENUES TO RECORD LEVELS

      Sales of Devon's oil, gas and natural gas liquids (NGLs) were up 281
percent in the second quarter of 2000 to $389.4 million, another record.
This compares with second quarter 1999 sales of oil, gas and NGLs of $102.1
million. Significant gains in both production and prices contributed to the
increase in revenues.

Total production of oil, gas and NGLs was up 111 percent over the second
quarter of 1999 to 19.1 million barrels of oil equivalent (Boe). The record
pace of year 2000 production growth is largely the result of Devon's August
17, 1999, merger with PennzEnergy Company.

Oil, natural gas and NGLs prices were all dramatically higher in the second
quarter of 2000. Devon's second quarter average oil price increased 73
percent from $14.71 per barrel in 1999 to $25.47 per barrel in 2000. The
average price for Devon's second quarter natural gas production increased
83 percent from $1.64 per thousand cubic feet in 1999 to $3.00 per thousand
cubic feet in 2000. The average price received for the company's NGLs
increased 67 percent from $11.33 per barrel in 1999 to $18.87 per barrel in
2000.

Allen Turner, Senior Vice President, remarked, "Many oil and gas companies
are reporting earnings growth in this period of robust oil and gas prices.
In addition to higher commodity prices, Devon has enjoyed strong production
growth. The expansion brought by the PennzEnergy merger late last year is
the largest contributing factor.

"However, we are also quite pleased with the production growth in our Gulf
of Mexico/Gulf Coast division during the last three months. In this
particular geologic area it can be difficult to offset normal production
decline. In the most recent quarter, we not only sustained production in
this area, we actually grew production. Second quarter 2000 production for
this division was eight percent higher than in the first quarter of this
year.

"In many of our previous mergers and acquisitions, we have gained not only
existing production, but also exploitation opportunities. This is proving
true with the PennzEnergy assets, particularly in the Gulf of Mexico."

PENNZENERGY MERGER INCREASES EXPENSES; BUT PRE-TAX EARNINGS STILL RISE

      In addition to driving revenues higher, the PennzEnergy merger caused
expenses to rise. Total pre-tax expenses jumped $170.3 million to $247.5
million for the second quarter of 2000. However, this expense increase was
far less than the $296.5 million revenue gain. As a result, pre-tax
earnings rose 466 percent in the second quarter to $153.4 million.

Nonetheless, most of Devon's expenses were higher, reflecting the expanded
scope of operations. Lease operating expenses increased 161 percent in the
most recent quarter to $70.8 million. Production taxes were up 230 percent
to $11.4 million in the second quarter of 2000. Second quarter
depreciation, depletion and amortization of property and equipment
increased $77.4 million to $113.2 million in 2000. General and
administrative expenses increased by $9.2 million to $16.1 million in the
most recent quarter. Total second quarter financing costs increased by
$21.7 million to $25.7 million in 2000.

INCOME TAXES

      Income tax expense for the most recent quarter was $62.6 million or
41 percent of pre-tax earnings. This compares to second quarter 1999 income
tax expense of $10.9 million or 40 percent of pre-tax earnings.
Approximately $29.0 million of second quarter 2000 income tax expense was
deferred, not requiring the use of cash.

ZERO COUPON CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES ISSUED AT ATTRACTIVE INTEREST RATE

      On June 22, 2000, the company announced a private placement of
20-year zero coupon convertible debentures. Net proceeds of the issue were
approximately $346 million. Devon intends to use the proceeds to repay
higher cost existing debt and for other corporate purposes. The effective
interest rate on the debentures is 3.875 percent per annum. Because the
debentures bear no coupon interest rate, there are no cash interest
payments required until redemption. Each debenture, which was priced at
$464.13, is convertible into 5.7593 shares of Devon common stock.

MERGER WITH SANTA FE SNYDER ON SCHEDULE

      Devon's proposed merger with Santa Fe Snyder Corporation, originally
announced on May 26, 2000, has moved a step closer to completion. As
reported on July 13, 2000, the Registration Statement on Form S-4 was
declared effective by the SEC on July 12, 2000. Definitive proxy materials
were filed with the SEC on July 21, 2000. Distribution of printed proxy
materials began on July 25, 2000. Shareholders of each company will meet on
August 29, 2000 to vote on the merger. Assuming shareholders of both
companies approve the transaction, completion of the merger will follow
shortly thereafter. The merger of Devon and Santa Fe Snyder will make Devon
one of the five largest independent oil and gas companies based in the
United States.
