Wildcat Petroleum announced that it has passed a due diligence process conducted by the South Sudanese Ministry of Petroleum (MOP). This process included the evaluation of the company’s technical competency as well as its financial capability to complete a major multi-million/billion-dollar oil production purchase.
This clearance is required from the MOP before Wildcat can undertake any petroleum deal in the country including the purchase of large-scale oil production.
Financial backing for the potential purchase of any production in South Sudan has been provided by a number of industry investors, including The Waterford Group.
Wildcat Petroleum plc (LON:WCAT) was incorporated in early 2020, with plans to work and invest in the upstream sector of the petroleum industry – namely exploration, appraisal, development and production of oil and gas.
