North Sea
On 16 March 2026, DNO announced a non-cash swap of Norwegian Continental Shelf
assets with Equinor Energy AS covering DNO’s stakes in four non-core discoveries
in exchange for interests in the Kvitebjørn area in the Northern North Sea. The
swap accelerates production from discoveries in DNO’s portfolio.
Post quarter end, DNO announced start-up of the Symra field offshore Norway nine
months ahead of schedule. The field is expected to deliver 4,000-5,000 boepd net
to DNO at plateau.
DNO did not participate in any exploration wells in the quarter, but plans to
drill seven exploration or appraisal wells on the Norwegian Continental Shelf
later this year.
Kurdistan
Two wells drilled in December 2025 and January 2026 were brought on production
in the Tawke field early in the first quarter. But immediately following the
start of the U.S.-Israeli air campaign against Iran on 28 February 2026, DNO
ceased production and drilling in Kurdistan as a temporary safety measure. On 9
April 2026, the Company restarted field operations, including workovers of
existing wells, and relaunched its previously announced eight-well drilling
campaign in preparation for resumption of production from the Tawke and
Peshkabir at stepped up rates.
Selected cash flow items
DNO’s net entitlement production of oil from the Tawke license during the
quarter was sold to a local buyer. All payments continued to be received by the
Company in advance of oil deliveries.
In the first quarter, DNO paid a dividend of NOK 0.375 per share (totaling USD
38.5 million), which represents NOK 1.50 per share on an annualized basis. DNO
also paid taxes totaling USD 64 million in Norway related to installments for
taxable profit for 2025.
