Project IV

Exploration potential

Project IV focuses on exploring the potential of the IX, XIH, and XIQ licences, wehre significant prospectivity has been identified.

In 2025, a farmout agreement was entered into covering the XIQ licence, under which the farm-in partner will acquire up to 75% interest (with an option to 92.5%) in return for a work programme that includes 3D seismic and up to three high-impact wells.

This agreement accelerates Project IV’s exploration and development potential, leveraging partner expertise and sharing operational and financial risk.
