                                                                PR NEWSWIRE

                 NORTH EUROPEAN OIL ROYALTY TRUST ANNOUNCES
           THE DISTRIBUTION FOR THE THIRD QUARTER OF FISCAL 2015

Red Bank, N.J.  July 30, 2015   The Trustees of North European Oil Royalty
Trust (NYSE-NRT) announced today a quarterly distribution of $0.36 per unit
for the third quarter of fiscal 2015, payable on August 26, 2015 to holders
of record on August 14, 2015.  Natural gas sold during the second calendar
quarter of 2015 is the primary source of royalty income on which the August
2015 distribution is based.  John R. Van Kirk, Managing Director, reported
that this year's quarterly distribution of $0.36 per unit is 21.74%, or $0.10
per unit, lower than the distribution of $0.46 per unit for the third quarter
of fiscal 2014.  Specific details will be available in the earnings press
release scheduled for release on or about August 14, 2015.

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.  The operating companies may
make further adjustments during the quarter based on the recalculation of
royalties payable for prior periods, and the Trust has no means of predicting
such adjustments.

The table below shows an estimate of the amount of royalties anticipated to
be received in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 based on the actual amount
of royalties that were payable to the Trust for the second calendar quarter
of 2015.  Amounts in dollars are based on the current exchange rate of
1.105375.   Actual royalty income in dollars is valued based on exchange
rates on the day funds are transferred.  The August estimate below includes
a negative adjustment from the prior quarter of Euros 522,499.
