STILL SLIMMING DOWN: ConocoPhillips, as part of its massive downsizing effort, has agreed to sell its business in Algeria to Indonesia's state-owned oil and gas company Pertamina for $1.75 billion.

TO DATE: ConocoPhillips has sold more than $20 billion in refineries, pipelines and other assets since 2010 to remake itself as an independent oil and gas producer.

The Houston company overall produced about 1.57 million barrels of oil equivalent per day in the nine months through September.
