LONDON, Oct 6 (Reuters) - Premier Oil will not go ahead with
its plans to acquire North Sea oil and gas fields from BP for
$210 million after Premier was taken over by rival Chrysaor, the
firms said on Tuesday.
"Premier has informed us that they will not now proceed with
their purchase of interests in Andrew & Shearwater. We will
therefore retain ownership and will be considering our options
for the future of the assets," BP said in a statement.
