About Ithaca Energy

 

Ithaca Energy is a leading UK independent exploration and production company
focused on the UKCS with a strong track record of material value creation. In
recent years, the Group has been focused on growing its portfolio of assets
through both organic investment programmes and acquisitions and has seen a
period of significant M&A driven growth centered upon two transformational
acquisitions in recent years and now the Combination. Today, following
completion of the Combination Ithaca Energy is the largest resource holder in
the UKCS. With stakes in six of the ten largest fields in the UKCS and two of
UKCS's largest pre-development fields, and with energy security currently
being a key focus of the UK Government, the Group believes it can utilise its
significant reserves and operational capabilities to play a key role in
delivering security of domestic energy supply from the UKCS.

 

Ithaca Energy serves today's needs for domestic energy through operating
sustainably. The Group achieves this by harnessing Ithaca Energy's deep
operational expertise and innovative minds to collectively challenge the norm,
continually seeking better ways to meet evolving demands.

 

Ithaca Energy's commitment to delivering attractive and sustainable returns is
supported by a well-defined emissions-reduction strategy with a target of
achieving net zero ahead of targets set out in the North Sea Transition Deal.
