The new maritime boundary as determined by the tribunal does not affect the TEN fields as per the map at http://www.tullowoil.com/media/press-releases/itlos-judgment. \n \nTullow will now work with the Government of Ghana to put in place the necessary permits to allow the restart of development drilling in the TEN fields. Tullow expects to resume drilling around the end of the year which will allow production from the TEN fields to start to increase towards the FPSO design capacity of 80,000 bopd.\n \nPaul McDade, CEO, commented today: \n\"Tullow looks forward to continuing to work constructively with the Governments of both Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire following the conclusion of this process. While the TEN fields have performed well during the period of the drilling moratorium, we can now restart work on the additional drilling planned as part of the TEN fields' plan of development and take the fields towards their full potential.\" \n \nFOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:\n \n\n\n\n\nTullow Oil plc \n(London)\n (+44 20 3249 9000)\nChris Perry (investors)\nNicola Rogers (investors)\nGeorge Cazenove (media)\n\n\nMurray Consultants \n(Dublin)\n (+353 1 498 0300) \nPat Walsh\nJoe Heron\n\n\n\n\n \nNotes to Editors\n \nTullow Oil plc\nTullow is a leading independent oil & gas, exploration and production group, quoted on the London, Irish and Ghanaian stock exchanges (symbol: TLW).
