DNO and its partners have drilled a dry well in the Page prospect in the southern part of the North Sea, using Noble Corporation’s Noble Intrepid jack-up rig.

DNO is the operator of the production license with 50% working interest, with Petoro and Aker BP holding 20% share each, while Source Energy holds the remaining 10%.
