producing companies are withdrawing, i.e. “tail-end” production.
– Supplemented with exploration activities in order to secure new resources
Operating highlights 1Q05
„ The company entered a new region in the period by the acquisition of
2 interest in the exploration concessions Block H and Block I offshore
Equatorial Guinea, West Africa.Preparation for a well in Block H, 3Q
2005 is ongoing.
„ The production from the Didon field has been adversely affected by
technical problems with the FPSO operating on this field. As
previously announced this has caused a reduction in the overall
production level for Q1 2005.
„ Didon complementary development project progress according to set
schedule.
Engineering has achieved more than 50% progress and fabrication
work on the jacket and the deck has started.
„ A total of 136 000 BOE produced in Q105.
