On 3 September 2024, Harbour completed the deal to acquire the majority of Wintershall Dea’s upstream assets for US$11.2 billion. This report focuses on Wintershall Dea's exploration performance from 2013-2024.

Improvement in exploration performance towards the end of the decade coincided with two play-opening discoveries in Mexico and focused spend in Norway.
