Europa Oil & Gas, the AIM traded UK, Ireland and Morocco focused oil and gas exploration, development, and production company, has announced that it has repaid in full the £1,000,000 loan facility provided by Union Jack Oil which was announced on 9 September 2022. In accordance with the terms of the Loan, the principal and accrued interest has been repaid without penalty and following repayment the Loan will be cancelled. The Loan was secured against a 10% interest in the Wressle field (PEDL180 and PEDL182), including the associated infrastructure; this security will now be released at which point the Company will be completely unencumbered and debt-free.
As announced on 10 October 2022, following drilling of the Serenity well the Company expects to receive in the coming months, once all of invoices for the SA02 well have been received and a final well cost has been established, a repayment of approximately £2 million from the escrow account.
Simon Oddie, CEO of Europa, said:
‘I would like to thank UJO for providing us with this loan, which provided Europa with additional liquidity as part of our prudent cash management philosophy pertaining to our short-term capital requirements. Although the results were disappointing, the Serenity well was drilled significantly under budget and the £2 million, when added to our existing cash balance and ongoing net income from our onshore production, provide us with a strong balance sheet to fund the ongoing assessment of the Serenity development, development activity at Wressle and also to continue with our stated efforts to add additional appraisal assets to the portfolio. I look forward to providing further updates as each of these exciting facets of the Europa business progresses.’
