Date: Tuesday 24 Mar 2009 LONDON (ShareCast) - Oil and gas firm Dragon Oil said its investigations into irregularities in the company’s accounts indicate the improper conduct by some senior managers was confined to the Market department and the Contract department. The irregularities in the accounts identified in late February will not have a material impact on Dragon Oil’s financial position, the company said. An investigation by KPMG has revealed that, although internal controls were in place to prevent improper conduct relating to procurement activities, the individuals concerned managed to circumvent these through acts of collusion. “These individuals appear to have obtained financial benefits for themselves by securing improper payments from certain contractors,” the company said, adding that it has contacted the contractors concerned.
