Maersk Tankers

Maersk Oil

Maersk Oil is a midsize international oil and gas company operating an oil production of some 600,000 barrels per day and a gas production of up to some 1,000 million cubic feet per day.

Turning marginal and challenging fields into a commercial success has been a cornerstone of Maersk Oil's business since our company was founded in 1962.

We developed groundbreaking technologies while working with tight chalk reservoirs in the Danish North Sea, and enabled Denmark to become an oil and gas producing country. Later, these technologies were deployed around the globe allowing us to become a truly global player in the upstream business.

Maersk Oil is now producing oil from the Danish and UK sections of the North Sea, Qatar, Algeria and Kazakhstan. It conducts exploration activities in those areas as well as offshore Norway, the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, Brazil, Angola and Oman.

We will grow our reserves base by deploying and further developing our technologies. At the same time we will make technological step-outs enabling us to master new technologies such as deepwater operation and Enhanced Oil Recovery. This combination ensures that we keep our leading position in our core countries and also create opportunities in new areas such as West Africa and the US Gulf of Mexico.

Our perspective and strategy for the oil business is focused on the long term and we believe that we have a significant role to play in the future security of the energy supply to the world. We view sustainable and eco-efficient work practices as simply the right way to do business and they can also lead to new opportunities.
