Notes to editors
Block Energy is an AIM-listed independent oil and gas company
focused on production and development in Georgia, applying
innovative technology to realise the full potential of previously
discovered fields.
The Company has a 100% working interest in the highly
prospective West Rustavi onshore oil and gas field with multiple
wells that have tested oil and gas from a range of geological
horizons. The Field has so far produced 50 Mbbls of light sweet
crude, and has 0.9 MMbbls of gross 2P oil reserves in the Middle
Eocene. It also has 38 MMbbls of gross unrisked 2C contingent
resources of oil and 608 BCF of gross unrisked 2C contingent
resources of gas in the Middle, Upper and Lower Eocene formations
(Source: CPR Gustavson Associates: 1 January 2018).
Block Energy also holds 100% and 90% working interests in the
onshore oil producing Norio and Satskhenisi fields. It has recently
entered into a conditional sale and purchase agreement for Georgian
onshore Blocks XIB and IX.
The Company offers a clear entry point for investors to gain
exposure to Georgia's growing economy and the strong regional
demand for oil and gas.
