For immediate release
Energean plc
("Energean" or the "Company")
Update on the proposed acquisition of interests in Block 14 and Block 14K,
offshore Angola
London, 3 June 2026 - Energean plc (LSE: ENOG, TASE: אנאג) provides an
update on the proposed acquisition from Chevron of a 31% operated interest in
Block 14 and a 15.5% non-operated interest in Block 14K, offshore Angola,
announced on 12 March 2026 (the "Transaction"). The Company has been informed
by the seller, Chevron, that it has received notice from one of the joint
venture partners, Etu Energias, purporting to exercise its pre-emption rights
in relation to the Transaction.
The sale and purchase agreement entered into between Energean and Chevron
remains in effect until: (i) the relevant pre-emption right is determined to
have been validly exercised and executed; and (ii) a new sale and purchase
agreement between Chevron and Etu Energias has been executed and completed.
The Company notes that any assignment to Etu Energias must be made on the same
or equivalent terms as the sale and purchase agreement between Energean and
Chevron. This includes the condition precedent requiring the buyer to deliver
evidence to the seller that it is a proven deepwater oil and gas operator of
at least one existing deepwater producing asset in water depths greater than
300 metres, both within 15 days after signing and as at the unconditional
date.
The Company will provide further updates as and when appropriate.
