Oil Search eyeing acquisitions in PNG


MELBOURNE: Oil Search Ltd said it is looking for acquisitions in Papua New Guinea (PNG) where it holds the bulk of its assets but managing director Peter Botten said deals may take some time as buyer and seller expectations remain wide apart.

Botten said Oil Search was better positioned than many of its peers to weather a prolonged period of low oil prices as its oil and gas output in PNG remained very profitable.
