Afentra, formerly Sterling Energy plc, was launched in 2021
to support the African energy transition as a responsible,
well managed independent oil and gas company, assisting in
the continued economic and social development of African economies
through responsible management of their oil and gas assets
and bridging the gap to renewable and other sustainable forms
of energy. Afentra aims to access, redevelop and maximise the
full potential of existing producing fields and undeveloped
discoveries that no longer fit the portfolio of IOCs and host
governments in a safe, responsible and sustainable manner.
The Company has acquired 14% interest in Block 3/05 and a 40%
interest in Block 23 offshore Angola from Sonangol Pesquisa
e Produção S.A. ("Sonangol") for an aggregate consideration,
including maximum deferred consideration, of approximately
US$91.0 million (the "Sonangol Acquisition")
In addition, the Company is in the process of acquiring a further
12% interest in Block 3/05 and a 16 interest in Block 3/05A
offshore Angola from Azule Energy Angola Production B.V. for
an aggregate consideration, including maximum deferred consideration,
of approximately US$84.5 million (the "Azule Acquisition").
Pursuant to Rule 14 of the AIM Rules for Companies, the Sonangol
Acquisition constitutes a reverse takeover and therefore admission
is being sought as a result of such reverse take-over. Admission
is not contingent on completion of the Azule Acquisition.
Afentra also has an interest in a high potential exploration
project, onshore southwestern Somaliland. The Odewayne Block
covers a very large area (circa 22,000km(2)), located adjacent
