Aug 4 (Reuters) - Oil and gas producer EOG Resources Inc posted an about 7% rise in second-quarter adjusted profit on Wednesday, driven by higher crude prices as COVID-19 vaccine rollouts and easing travel curbs boosted fuel demand.
The Houston-based company's adjusted net income was $1.01 billion, or $1.73 per share, in the quarter ended June 30, compared with a profit of $946 million, or $1.62 per share, in the first quarter. (Reporting by Arunima Kumar in Bengaluru; Editing by Maju Samuel)
