Sept 28 (Reuters) — West Africa-focused Tullow Oil reported a sharp improvement in first-half free cash flow on Monday, driven by strong output from its Ghana fields, stronger-than-expected new-well performance and higher oil prices stemming from the Iran war. Here are details: Tullow's free cash flow swung to $4 million for the first half ended June 30 from negative $188 million a year earlier. 4 per barrel. 7 kboepd in the first half.

Peel Hunt analysts said Tullow's Ghana assets outperformed their expectations, supported by successful drilling results and strong uptime. Tullow has spent the past year reshaping itself around Ghana, selling non-core assets in Gabon and Kenya, refinancing its debt and securing licence extensions for its flagship Jubilee and TEN fields until 2040. com)
