CALGARY - The beleaguered Terra Nova oilfield off the coast of Newfoundland and Labrador could live to pump another day after its owners reached a restructuring agreement in the eleventh hour Wednesday.
The oilfield's seven owners will shuffle their shares and provide short-term funding for the project, rather than abandon the field entirely, a news release from Suncor Energy Inc. said.
