QuickView: Progress on Barryroe farm-out

On 9 February, Lansdowne (LOGP) and operator Providence (PVR) announced that they had reached agreement on commercial terms with a proposed farminee on Barryroe. The farm-out remains contingent on the proposed farminee’s ability to raise sufficient funding. As such, it is clear that the proposed buyer is not a major and there can be no certainty a deal will be concluded given funding challenges in the oil and gas sector. Nonetheless, this news represents commendable progress at a time when natural partners (IOCs and large independents) are cutting discretionary capex and E&Ps struggle to farm out assets.
