The board of Norwegian oil firm Noreco is proposing the conversion to equity of approximately 1.9 billion Norwegian crowns ($252 million) of bond debt under a revised restructuring proposal.
Following the proposed conversion the bondholders will own 92 percent of the company, it added.
Noreco also revised its cash forecast for end-2015 before any bond payments to a positive result of 214 million crowns from a negative 12 million crowns due to cost-cutting measures.
