The company filed a request for arbitration in 2021.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Shares rose as much as 13% to 24.76 pence as of 8:08 a.m. in London trading.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Ghana handed back-tax demands to some of the biggest companies operating there including MTN Group Ltd., Gold Fields Ltd. and Kosmos Energy Ltd. in recent years. The country was seeking additional revenue after losing access to international capital markets because of its ballooning debt and loan-service costs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">The ICC announcement is a boost for Tullow after Chief Executive Officer Rahul Dhir said he would step down and Kosmos Energy dropped a bid for the explorer following \u201cvery preliminary discussions\u201d around a deal.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Tullow still has two remaining disputed tax assessments from the Ghana Revenue Authority for which it filed requests for arbitration with the ICC. They relate to loan interest over a decade and business interruption insurance proceeds it received. Those assessments total $387 million plus penalties, Tullow said in 2023.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">\u201cI look forward to constructive discussions with the government of Ghana to resolve the remaining claims,\u201d Dhir said in the statement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph b-article-body__copyright\">\u00a92025 Bloomberg L.P.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Bloomberg) &#8212; Tullow Plc gained after an international body found it wasn\u2019t liable for a $320 million tax assessment in Ghana, where its key oil assets are located.
