                 NORTH EUROPEAN OIL ROYALTY TRUST ANNOUNCES
           THE DISTRIBUTION FOR THE SECOND QUARTER OF FISCAL 2014


Red Bank, N.J.  April 30, 2014 - The Trustees of North European Oil Royalty
Trust (NYSE-NRT) today announced a quarterly distribution of $0.56 per unit
for the second quarter of fiscal 2014, payable on May 28, 2014 to holders of
record on May 15, 2014.  Natural gas sold during the first calendar quarter
of 2014 is the primary source of royalty income on which the May 2014
distribution is based.  John R. Van Kirk, Managing Director, reported that
this year's quarterly distribution of $0.56 per unit is 12.5%, or $0.08 per
unit, lower than the distribution of $0.64 per unit for the second quarter
of fiscal 2013.  No details on sales or production have yet been received
from the operating companies.  Specific details will be available in the
earnings press release scheduled for release on or about May 14, 2014.

Trust royalty payments for each fiscal quarter are based on actual royalties
payable for the preceding calendar quarter.  In the final month of the
Trust's fiscal quarter, the operating companies determine the actual amount
of royalties that should have been paid to the Trust and compare this amount
to the amount actually paid.  Any underpayment would be added to the amount
of royalties paid during the final month of the current fiscal quarter.  Any
overpayment would be deducted from the amount of royalties to be paid in the
first month of the Trust's next fiscal quarter.  In the quarter just ending,
the overpayment of Euros 253,450 will be deducted from royalties anticipated
to be received in May 2014.

The table below shows estimated royalties anticipated to be received during
the third quarter of fiscal 2014 based on the actual amount of royalties that
were paid to the Trust for the first calendar quarter of 2014.  Amounts in
dollars are based on the current exchange rate of 1.38592.  Actual royalty
income in dollars is valued based on exchange rates on the day funds are
transferred.
