Sterling Issues Surrender Notice for Ntem

Monday, August 8, 2016

Sterling Energy announced that its wholly owned subsidiary Sterling Cameroon has issued a notice of surrender in relation to the Ntem Concession, offshore Cameroon.

The surrender will be effective by the end of December 2016. The company does not expect to incur any material costs associated with the surrender.

Eskil Jersing company CEO said: “We are disappointed that we have been unable to reach an acceptable solution for all parties to advance operational activity on the Ntem Concession. Given the declaration of force majeure in May 2014, the remaining potential on the block and the challenging macro landscape, we have made the decision to formally surrender the Ntem Block. Our focus remains on securing transformative, exploitation led M&A opportunities.”
