Notes to Editors
Serica Energy is an independent British oil and gas company with a broad
portfolio of assets located in the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS). The Company is
responsible for about 5% of the UK's natural gas, which plays a significant
role in supporting the country's energy transition, and has invested over £1
billion in the UK supply chain since 2020. Serica maintains a balanced output
of oil and gas across its operations.
The Company's key producing assets are grouped around two major hubs: the
Bruce, Keith, and Rhum fields in the Northern North Sea, where Serica is the
operator; and a mix of operated and non-operated fields connected to the
Triton FPSO in the Central North Sea.
Serica aims to create shareholder value through a mix of production from
existing oil and gas fields, organic investment and M&A.
Serica expects to complete the purchase of Prax Upstream Limited during 2025,
gaining 100% ownership and operatorship of the Lancaster field situated in the
West of Shetlands area. In H1 2026, Serica is also set to complete the
acquisition of a 40% operated stake in the Greater Laggan Area offshore fields
and associated Shetland Gas Plant from TotalEnergies and non-operated
interests in the Catcher and Golden Eagle Area Development fields from
ONE-Dyas.
