Savannah in Gas-for-Oil Swap

Monday, September 24, 2018

Savannah Petroleum signed a gas-for-oil swap agreement with Seven Uquo Gas Ltd and Accugas Ltd. in Nigeria. The company signed a MoU with the two companies to conduct a gas-for-oil swap at the Uquo field in south-east Nigeria.

Seven Uquo’s rights to gas production from the field will increase to 100% from 88% and Savannah’s ownership of the oil project will be 100%.

In addition to the gas-for-oil swap, Savannah Petroleum has also agreed to acquire the 38% minority shareholders’ interest in Universal Energy Resources Ltd, raising its Stubb Creek field interest to 51% from approximately 32%.

“We are extremely pleased to be able to announce that we have reached agreement to increase our interests in two key assets, both through the frontier memorandum of understanding at Uquo and through the buy-out at Stubb Creek,” said Savannah Chief Executive Andrew Knott.
