News wire — Tullow Oil narrowed its annual production forecast range and cut capital investment expenditure estimate on Wednesday, as the West Africa-focused oil producer attempts to bring down costs after two strategic wells returned disappointing results.
The company now expects its full-year production to be between 61,000 and 62,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day.
Its forecast for 2022 capital investment was reduced to about $360 million, while free cash flow forecast was raised to $250 million.
The company decided to push back its capital markets update to 2023 until it has an update on its strategy and outlook for investors, it said.
