受严峻市况影响，独立石油生产商Tullow Oil已决定售出挪威境内所有勘探与开发许可证，退出挪威市场。这意味着该公司将关闭挪威事务处，并解雇50名员工。
Tullow发言人称：公司已知会相关机构，目前已开始与员工进行协商。由于油价持续低迷，挪威市场并不景气，且公司需要集中精力优先发展非洲和南美洲的核心资产组合，因而出此下策退出挪威市场。Tullow在挪威共有34个勘探许可证区域，计划2016年在该国钻取四口勘探井。发言人还表示：公司将履行现有勘探许可区的全部义务，并对员工负责。
本周早些时候，Tullow位于加纳海上的TEN (Tweneboa、Enyenra and Ntomme) 油田投产，第一批石油的产出使用浮式生产储油轮（FPSO）Prof. John Evans Atta Mills。公司希望能不断增产，在2017年之前实现日产8万桶，达到该浮式生产储油轮的日加工量。

Independent oil exploration and production company Tullow Oil has decided to sell its exploration and development licenses in Norway and exit the country due to a challenging market. This means that the company will shut down its Norwegian office and lay off around 50 employees.
The company’s spokesperson said that Tullow has already submitted notifications to the relevant authorities and has started a consultation process with its staff. “This difficult decision has been made in response to the ongoing challenges presented by a low oil price and the need to prioritize our investment in our core portfolio in Africa and South America.” The oil company has 34 licenses in Norway and planned to drill four exploration wells in the country in 2016. The spokesperson further added: “We will, of course, fulfill all our commitments on our existing licenses and honor all our obligations to staff.”
Earlier this week, Tullow produced first oil from the Tweneboa, Enyenra, Ntomme (TEN) fields, located offshore Ghana, to the FPSO Prof. John Evans Atta Mills. The company expects oil production to ramp-up gradually towards the FPSO capacity of 80,000 bopd through the remainder of 2016.
