2008 Annual Report and Accounts

Operations review: Rest of the World

In 2008 Tullow made good progress in Europe, South Asia and South America with new fields developed, major asset sales completed and acreage acquired in a new country with high-impact exploration potential.

Tullow’s Rest of the World assets remain integral to the business and comprise production, development and exploration interests in Europe and South Asia and high-impact exploration licences in South America. In the current financial climate, Tullow has undertaken a strict capital allocation programme which will prioritise key African developments in the near term. However, investment in the Rest of the World is expected to increase in 2010.
