The company said no directive has been given by the Commission for the tendering process for the rig contract to be halted. In the said publication, the newspaper is alleged to have reported that the Petroleum Commission had ordered Tullow Ghana to withhold its rig contract tendering process. But Tullow said the said article contained several factual inaccuracies about the company and the contract. "The Commission has not instructed TGL to award any drilling contract to any entity including Rigworld as alleged in the article," the statement said.
