Enterprise Oil
Enterprise Oil was a major UK independent exploration and production company based in Europe, with core areas of activity in the United Kingdom and Ireland, mainland Europe, Brazil and the Gulf of Mexico. The Company was once a constituent of the FTSE 100 Index but was acquired by Royal Dutch Shell.
==History==
Enterprise Oil was formed in 1983 to exploit the North Sea oil production assets of the then state-owned British Gas plc: it was privatised and its shares first listed on the London Stock Exchange in February 1984.〔(A whole world sold on sell-offs )〕 In 1994 the Company was involved in a high-profile but unsuccessful bid to acquire Lasmo.〔(Lasmo attacks Enterprise Oil's 'dismal' record )〕
The Corrib gas field was discovered off the coast of Ireland by Enterprise Oil in 1996, and has proved especially troublesome for Shell (see Corrib gas controversy).〔(Corrib gas project )〕〔(Public Inquiry Report )〕 In the last few years of the Company's existence it was also investing significant sums in its Brazilian oil interests.〔(Brazil: Enterprise Oil schedules investments )〕
The Most Reverend Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury and former Bishop of Durham, served as Group Treasurer from 1984 to 1987.
The Company was purchased by Royal Dutch Shell for £3.5bn in 2002.〔(Royal Dutch / Shell buys Enterprise Oil of Britain )〕
