Tullow Oil plc is a British-Irish exploration and production company primarily engaged in the oil and gas industry. Founded in 1985, Tullow Oil has its headquarters in London, United Kingdom. The company is known for its focus on discovering and developing oil and gas resources in emerging markets, particularly in Africa and South America.
Tullow Oil has historically been involved in both exploration and production activities. They have explored and developed oil and gas fields in various countries, including Ghana, Kenya, Uganda, and several others. One of the company's notable achievements was the discovery of significant oil reserves in the Jubilee Field off the coast of Ghana in 2007, which marked a turning point in its growth.
However, it's worth noting that Tullow Oil has faced its share of challenges as well. Fluctuations in global oil prices, technical difficulties in exploration and production, regulatory issues in some host countries, and financial constraints have affected the company's operations and financial performance.
