Notes to Editors
Georgina Energy aims to become a
leading player in the global energy market and is focused on
establishing itself among the top producers of helium and hydrogen
worldwide. With a strategic approach and leveraging the experienced
management team's expertise, Georgina Energy aims to capitalize on
opportunities in these critical energy sectors.
The projects benefit from
established infrastructure and a reliable supply chain, offering
significant resource potential through low-risk, cost-effective
drilling projects.
Georgina Energy has two principal
onshore interests held through its wholly owned Australian
subsidiary, Westmarket O&G. The first, the Hussar
Prospect is located in the Officer Basin in Western Australia and
Westmarket O&G holds a 100% working interest in the exploration
permit. The second, the Mount Winter Prospect, is located in
the Amadeus Basin in the Northern Territory, which Georgina Energy
has a right to earn an initial 75 per cent. interest in (with the
potential to reach 90 per cent.).
In line with market demand trends,
Georgina Energy is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing gap
between supply and demand for hydrogen and helium with the resource
potential of Mount Winter and Hussar projects for their potential
accumulations.
