Dana Gas books record profit in 2021

The Middle East and North Africa-focused Dana Gas reported record profit during the 12 months to December 31 owing to higher oil prices and other income, the company said on February 9.

Dana Gas booked a net profit of $317mn in 2021 compared with a net loss of $376mn in 2020. The increase was primarily due to higher oil prices, improved operational performance and other income. The company's other Income included $608mn relating to amounts due following an arbitration award. This was partially offset by impairments of $451mn.
