Shares in Longboat Energy PLC rose Tuesday after the company
reported a significant hydrocarbon discovery at the Kveikje
exploration well offshore Norway, which is operated by Equinor
ASA.
The oil-and-gas company, which has a 10% interest in the
license, said the preliminary estimate of recoverable resources in
the Kveikje Main target is between 28 and 48 million oil-equivalent
barrels, above pre-drill expectations.
The discovery has excellent quality and is close to existing
infrastructure, Longboat said.
Shares at 0703 GMT were up 22% at 75.0 pence.
