Director Shareholding

Enterprise Oil PLC 13 March 2002 Announcement Body Information: SHARE OPTION EXERCISES BY CURRENT AND FORMER EMPLOYEES We have today been notified by the Trustee of the Enterprise Oil Employee Worldwide Benefit Trust, of a transfer out of the trust on 13 March 2002 of 22,050 ordinary shares in the capital of the company following an exercise of share options made today by current and former employees. 15,090 shares were sold following exercise at 615.0951p per share and 4,910 shares were sold following exercise at 614.94p per share. The Directors, I G Craig, Sir Graham Hearne, W S H Laidlaw, A B Shilston and K P Watts, are potential beneficiaries of the Trust (together with all other employee share option holders) and are therefore treated under the Companies Act 1985 as having a deemed interest in the total number of shares held by the Trust. As a result, the Directors' deemed interests in the Trust have been reduced by the above-noted number of shares disposed of. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company confirms that this notification does not relate to an actual dealing in the Company's securities by the above-noted Directors whose beneficial interests in the Company remain unchanged notwithstanding the above events.
