The search for his successor has already begun and Dhir will stay in his role until a date to be determined "to ensure a smooth transition," the company said.

Non-executive chairman Phuthuma Nhleko said: "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."

Dhir said: "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 circa $1.4 billion."

At 0810 GMT, the shares were down 6% at 22.52p.
