Oslo, 14 October 2024 – DNO ASA, the Norwegian oil and gas operator, will publish its Q3 2024 operating and interim financial results on 7 November at 07:00 (CET). A videoconference call with executive management will follow at 14:00 (CET). Today the Company provides an update on production, sales volumes and other key information for the quarter.

Volumes (boepd)

Selected cash flow items

DNO’s share of crude oil from the Tawke license during the quarter has been sold to local buyers as the Iraq-Türkiye Pipeline remained closed. Payments are deposited directly into DNO’s international bank accounts in advance of loadings.

In the third quarter, DNO paid a dividend of NOK 0.3125 per share (totaling USD 29 million), which was up 25 percent from prior quarterly distributions. The Company had no tax payments or refunds during the quarter.

The acquisition of stakes in five oil and gas fields in the Norne area in the Norwegian Sea announced in May was completed on 30 August. Net cash consideration paid by DNO was approximately USD 24 million. The transfer of DNO's 22.6 percent interest in Ringhorne East to Vår Energi, the other element of the swap, was completed on the same date.

Other items and information

DNO participated in two exploration wells in the Norwegian North Sea in the quarter. The Heisenberg/Angel well in PL827SB (49 percent interest) was spudded on 18 August and completed on 16 September. The well delineated the play-opening 2023 Heisenberg oil and gas discovery and confirmed the volume estimate of 24 to 56 MMboe but the deeper Angel exploration target was found to be mainly water wet. The operated Falstaff well (50 percent interest) was spudded on 20 September and drilling was ongoing as of end of Q3 2024.

Other drilling activities during the quarter included the B-3 well in Kurdistan at the DNO-operated Baeshiqa license (64 percent interest), which was spudded on 21 February, completed on 26 July and was ongoing a testing program as of end of Q3 2024.
