Norway’s DNO has an increasingly visible presence in the region’s industry. A settlement agreement with the Kurdistan Regional Government has seen the firm take a 75% holding at the Tawke oilfield in northern Iraq and this is its main source of production, with an average of 105,500 bpd last year. DNO plans to invest heavily in Iraq to drill new wells and spike production at Tawke and nearby Peshkabir. Legal expert Dale also manages offshore production in Oman and activity in the North Sea.
