What they tell their suppliers
In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
Tullow specifies payment periods of 30 days from receipt of a true, correctly prepared and adequately substantiated invoice in all of its standard contract models. Tullow sometimes varies standard payment terms by reducing the payment period from 30 days to 15 days based on negotiations with suppliers and consultation with Finance. Tullow does not specify a maximum payment period in its model contracts, however Tullow provides for suppliers’ right to charge interest on any undisputed invoices overdue. Tullow does require that invoices be submitted within 3 months of the work qualifying for payment to ensure discipline.
Dispute resolution
Tullow reserves the right to dispute items on the invoice. Contracts provide that Tullow will pay undisputed items on the invoice upon receipt of a new invoice for the undisputed portion and supplier’s credit note for the original disputed invoice in accordance with payment terms agreed in the contract. For a minority of contracts entered into in 2024 and for contracts entered into before 2024, Tullow undertakes to pay the undisputed items on the invoice upon receipt of a supplier’s credit note amending the original disputed invoice. Tullow also reserves the right to withhold disputed amounts from any money due under the contract. Suppliers then have aright to submit invoices for any money due once the dispute is settled. All Tullow contracts provide for parties resolving disputes amicably

Is this official government data?
How this is compiled. Built from official records only: Companies House and the gov.uk payment-practices service. The payment figures are self-reported — companies over the size threshold must file them by law and the board signs them off. No credit-agency data. The numbers are theirs; the plain-English read is ours. This is information compiled from public records under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — not a credit rating and not advice.
The 31-day comparison figure is the median across 6,185 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
