July 15 (Reuters) - California Resources Corp CRC.N filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on Wednesday after defaulting on certain interest payments following a slump in oil prices over the past few months.
The oil and gas producer reached an agreement for $1.1 billion debtor-in-possession financing package, which also refinances the company's current revolving loan facility.
