Exhibit 99
                                                                 PR NEWSWIRE

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


Red Bank, N.J.  July 31, 2014   The Trustees of North European Oil Royalty
Trust (NYSE-NRT) announced today a quarterly distribution of $0.46 per unit
for the third quarter of fiscal 2014, payable on August 27, 2014 to holders
of record on August 15, 2014.  Natural gas sold during the second calendar
quarter of 2014 is the primary source of royalty income on which the August
2014 distribution is based.

John R. Van Kirk, Managing Director, reported that this year's quarterly
distribution of $0.46 per unit was 6.12%, or $0.03 per unit, lower than the
distribution of $0.49 per unit for the third quarter of fiscal 2013.
Preliminary data suggests that the reduction in this quarter's distribution
resulted from lower gas sales and prices.   Specific details will be
available in the earnings press release scheduled for publication on or about
August 13, 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 304,717 will be deducted from royalties anticipated
to be received in August 2014.

The table below shows estimated royalties anticipated to be received during
the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 based on the actual amount of royalties
that were payable to the Trust for the second calendar quarter of 2014.
Amounts in dollars are based on the current exchange rate of 1.3405.
Actual royalty income in dollars is valued based on exchange rates on the
day funds are transferred.
