Lundin Petroleum Shares Insight on the Johan Sverup Experience Ahead of Oil & Gas IQ's Acquisition & Divestiture Summit

LONDON, March 6, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

Oil & Gas IQ releases a brand new podcast about the facts behind the discovery of the Johan Sverdrup field and ramifications for the independent E&P company ahead of this year's  Acquisition & Divestiture Summit

Acquisition and divestiture is an important part of the European oil and gas industry. With recent years' economic instability it's more important than ever for exploration and production companies to stay on top of their portfolios.

In this exclusive interview Oil & Gas IQ speak to Andreas Hildeng, Commercial Manager Business Development at Lundin Norway, about the facts behind the discovery and how it has been a game changer on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.

"The importance of Johan Sverdrup to the North Sea arena cannot be underestimated" said Tim Haïdar, Editor In Chief of Oil & Gas IQ. "Expected to produce up 200,000 barrels of oil a day, it is projected to account for more than half of Norway's oil production by 2040. Suffice it to say, this is a game-changer for Norway and a goldmine for the folks at Lundin."  

The oil and gas industry's key players in acquisition & divestiture will be gathering for the 11th year running at IQPC's Acquisition & Divestiture Summit in April with one common goal; to raise their profiles, explore opportunities and build relationships in order to create fast moving and profitable deals that deliver real value to oil and gas businesses.
