Where We Operate

North America

Talisman is becoming a leading, returns-focused, shale producer in North America. The company has a diversified portfolio that includes interests in shale plays in British Columbia (BC) and Quebec in Canada, and Pennsylvania, New York and Texas in the US. Talisman continues to invest in conventional oil and natural gas properties in Western Canada. The company expects future growth to come from low-cost, long-life shale assets.

North Sea

With a decade of sustainable production ahead of it in the North Sea, Talisman is focused on offshore development and exploration activities in the UK and Norway. Talisman’s North Sea production is predominantly light, high-value oil and liquids. The company plans to maintain the region as a stable cash-generating business.

Southeast Asia

Talisman’s Southeast Asia operations are expected to continue as a self-funding, growth area over the medium term and with significant, long-term exploration upside. Talisman is exploring and developing oil and natural gas in Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Australia and Papua New Guinea. Current production from the region is predominantly oil and liquids, or natural gas linked to oil prices.

International Exploration

Talisman is building an international exploration portfolio that will contribute to the renewal of the company through the discovery of significant new hydrocarbon resources. In Peru and Colombia, the company is building an oil-focused core region. In Southeast Asia, Talisman is exploring prospects offshore Malaysia, Indonesia and Vietnam and onshore Papua New Guinea. In addition, Talisman is also looking for exploration opportunities to sustain North Sea production. The company is also pursuing material growth opportunities in Poland and in the Kurdistan region of northern Iraq.
