Statoil cuts spending, to offer share option on dividends


OSLO: Norway’s Statoil has pledged to keep cutting capital spending as oil prices fall after reporting better than expected fourth-quarter results, and said it would give shareholders the option to take their dividends in shares instead of cash.

Statoil said it now plans capital spending this year to be in the order of US$13bil, down from US$14.7bil in 2015.
