The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) is pursuing Sh23.1 billion in taxes arising from the 2025 sale of Tullow Oil’s Kenyan business to Auron Energy E&P Limited, an affiliate of Gulf Energy Ltd.

Appearing before the Joint Committee of Parliament on February 12, 2025, KRA officials said the assessment followed a comprehensive tax audit covering the period between 2020 and 2025.

“In 2025, the Authority carried out a tax audit on the taxpayer for the period 2020 to 2025 and raised taxes amounting to Sh23,124,656,330,” KRA told MPs.
