GREELEY, Colo. (AP) - Noble Energy is moving 100 employees out of its Denver headquarters.

The Greeley Tribune reported (https://bit.ly/2sEd70j ) Wednesday that employees will have the option of relocating, mostly to the independent oil and natural gas company’s main headquarters in Houston and some in Greeley.

Noble Energy, the second-largest oil and gas drilling company in Colorado, has about 770 employees in Colorado - 300 in Denver and 470 in Greeley.

The employee shuffle comes on the heels of a $1.2 billion sale of the company’s Marcellus Shale assets in May.

The Marcellus sale brings the company’s total sales for the year to $2 billion and will help cover the costs of acquiring Clayton Williams Energy Inc., according to company documents. That deal was a $2.7 billion acquisition.
