FEL 4/19 - Status of Licence
Europa Oil & Gas has received confirmation from the Irish Government that its FEL 4/19 licence remains live and in Phase 1 while its extension application is under consideration, a crucial development for the company's strategic asset containing the 1.5 TCF Inishkea West gas prospect. This prospect is highlighted as a low-risk, potentially significant source of low-emission energy for Ireland, with proximity to existing infrastructure allowing for rapid development and a reduction in reliance on higher-emission imported gas.

Given the proximity to existing infrastructure, a discovery at Inishkea West could be brought online quickly and would reduce Ireland's reliance on imported gas, which carries significantly higher emissions than gas from Inishkea West would.\"\n \n* * ENDS * *\n \nFor further information, please visit www.europaoil.com or contact:\n\n\n\n\nWilliam Holland\n\n\nEuropa Oil & Gas (Holdings) plc\n\n\[email protected]\n\n\n\n\nSamantha Harrison / Ciara Donnelly / Elliot Peters\n\n\nGrant Thornton UK LLP - Nominated Adviser\n\n\n+44 (0) 20 7383 5100\n\n\n\n\nPeter Krens\n\n\nTennyson Securities\n\n\n+44 (0) 20 7186 9033\n\n\n\n\nPatrick d'Ancona / Anna Sutton\n\n\nVigo Consulting\n\n\n+ 44 (0) 20 7390 0230\n\n\n\n\n \n\n","length":4510,"tagName":"div"}]
