Board change

5 December 2024 - Tullow Oil plc (Tullow) today announces that Rahul Dhir
will step down as Chief Executive Officer and resign from the Board during
2025 to pursue other business, academic and family interests. The Board has
initiated a process to find his successor. Rahul will stay in his role until a
date to be determined to ensure a smooth transition.

Phuthuma Nhleko, Non-Executive Chairman, commented today:

"I would like to thank Rahul for his hard work and dedication to Tullow. Since
joining in 2020, Rahul has led a comprehensive turn-around and strategic reset
of Tullow, focussed on the delivery of operational and financial performance,
debt reduction and positioning the company for future growth."

Rahul Dhir, Chief Executive Officer, commented today:

"It's been a privilege to serve Tullow during these past four and a half
years. During this period, we have achieved a step change in our operating
performance, cost structure and capital discipline and delivered over $1.1
billion in free cash flow and reduced our net debt from $2.8 billion to c.$1.4
billion. I am also very proud of our team's strong culture of ownership and
commitment to business delivery. With a strong pan-African platform, Tullow is
well-positioned as a trusted partner and responsible operator to deliver the
next phase of growth."
