PA Resources AB: PA Resources Divests from Netherlands Blocks Q7/Q10a

Regulatory News:

PA Resources has reached agreement to dispose of its 30 percent interest in Netherlands offshore Blocks Q7 and Q10a to Tulip Oil, subject to regulatory approval. Tulip Oil will pay a consideration of GBP 1 million (SEK 12 million) on completion of the transaction, with a further payment contingent on certain asset milestones being met. Reflecting only the firm consideration, the transaction results in a book loss of approximately SEK 19 million, which will be recorded in the fourth quarter.

– Consistent with focussing our discretionary expenditure on assets with appreciable upside in the central North Sea, North Africa and West Africa, we have exited from these non-core blocks and wish Tulip Oil every success in their future activities, says Mark McAllister, CEO of PA Resources.
