Third Energy wants to drill for shale gas at an existing well in Kirby Misperton, but is still waiting for formal approval from the government and recently began removing equipment from the site.
The Kirby Misperton Protection Camp say they've fulfilled their promise to remain there until the company were "no longer a threat to the area."
A spokesperson for the group says: "The last two weeks have seen convoys of fracking equipment leaving the site and this week we celebrated as the rig was finally removed.
"It’s clear Third Energy are not going to be fracking anytime soon, and so the time has come to begin packing up the Kirby Misperton Protection Camp."
The group says it will now begin the process of returning the field to its former state and will be arranging community work days over the coming weeks.
