Liberia: Tullow relinquishes two of three blocks

Tullow Oil PLC in mid-June relinquished its interests in the LB-16 and LB-17 blocks offshore Liberia after completing a detailed review of results to date from its acreage across the West Africa Transform Margin.

Tullow retains its interest in Block LB-15 off Liberia and Block SL-07B-11 off Sierra Leone but for now will focus its attention on the Ivory Coast and Guinea campaigns in the region.
