GLOBAL ENERGY DEVELOPMENT PLC
(the 'Company')
PANAMANIAN CONTRACT RELINQUISHMENT
Global Energy Development PLC, the Latin America focused petroleum exploration
and production company (LSE-AIM: "GED"), announces that it has relinquished its
Panamanian Garachine contract (the "Contract") by mutual consent with the
Panamanian government with immediate effect.
The relinquishment is in line with the terms of the Contract, which allowed for
relinquishment of the Contract by the Company after successful completion of the
work commitments of each phase. The Panamanian government has duly given its
consent to allow the Contract to be formally relinquished following the
completion of the Phase 1 work commitments.
The Contract was purely exploratory in nature, accounting for none of the
Company's independently audited reserves, and did not feature within the
Company's recently announced Three Year Plan (the "Plan") which consists
predominately of developmental drilling. As such it was deemed non-core and a
decision was taken by the Company to relinquish the Contract and focus
expenditures elsewhere within the Company's portfolio that form part of the
Plan.
