Boies Schiller Flexner LLP have submitted a memorial to the arbitration panel which outlines Emmerson’s case including legal arguments and supporting evidence and requests damages of $1.22 billion. Morocco now has the opportunity to respond. Emmerson’s claims allege the violation by Moroccan authorities of the United Kingdom-Morocco Bilateral Investment Treaty. ---------- Capricorn Energy PLC - oil and gas exploration and production company with assets in Egypt - Egyptian House of Representatives ratifies the consolidated and amended concession agreement covering eight of its Egyptian Western Desert concession agreements. Capricorn has a 50% participating interest held jointly with Cheiron Oil and Gas Ltd. ‘The ratification represents a key milestone in the process to consolidate, extend and improve the terms of the company’s Western Desert asset base,’ company says. The new agreement extends the concession life by up to 20 years with a 10-year development term and two 5-year optional extension terms; amends the fiscal terms to promote investment, and merges the existing concessions ‘to increase operational and financial efficiencies.’ Capricorn will now work with Cheiron and authorities to complete the remaining customary steps required for the Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources to sign the amended concession agreement. Expects this to occur in the coming weeks. ---------- Jangada Mines PLC - natural resources development company - Announces positive update on its diamond drilling campaign at the Molly Gold Project in the Tapajos Gold Province, Para State, Brazil. Says 13 holes have been drilled for a total of 2,076 metres primarily targeting the high-grade Molly 1 & 2 targets. Calls the results ‘highly encouraging’ with indications from step-out drilling having ‘reinforced district-scale prospectivity’. Notes holes drilled contained quartz vein and/or disseminated sulphides, ‘the host for gold in this style of mineralisation’. 44 samples have been sent to labs with assay results expected mid-April. Expects phase 1 drilling in early April, with phase 2 and geological work to begin shortly after. The next phase of exploration is fully funded. Looking ahead, it continues to expect to ‘materially build on’ the existing JORC resource of 130,000 ounces of gold. With the minimum drilling requirements of 2,000 metres met, Jangada has agreed to exercise its option to acquire 100% of the project from BGold. Pending regulatory approval, Jangada will pay $100,000 and $250,000 in shares which will be subject to a one-year hard lock up. ---------- Touchstone Exploration Inc - onshore oil and gas development in Trinidad & Tobago - Average net sales volumes for January and February 2026 total 4,778 barrels of oil equivalent per day, consisting of around 20.5 million cubic feet per day of natural gas and 1,357 barrels per day of crude oil and liquids. Also provides an operations update. The Carapal Ridge 3 well has been brought onstream after being tied into its Central block natural gas facility. ‘The well is currently flowing natural gas and condensate as it continues to recover drilling and completion fluids,’ Touchstone says. Since the Central block acquisition, gross natural gas throughput excluding Coho-1 well volumes has increased to 19 million cubic per day from 16 MMcf/d through ‘optimization’, and rising to around 21.5 MMcf/d following the startup of CR-3. During the current cleanup phase, CR-3 is demonstrating intermittent peak rates of up to 5.7 MMcf/d during liquid offloading. This is the first new well in the field in over 17 years, company notes. Elsewhere, the Cascadura facility booster compressor successfully completes run testing in Houston and is currently in transit to Trinidad, with arrival expected in April and commissioning targeted for May. On the WD-8 oil block, drills the FR-1835 well, encountering around 290 feet of net pay. The drilling rig has since spudded the second well in a four-well campaign, Touchstone adds. CEO Paul Baay comments: ‘Our current strategy is twofold: maximizing the utilization of existing excess capacity in our processing facilities through targeted drilling and deploying capital toward our highest-priced sales contracts to optimize project returns. The CR-3 well achieves both objectives, adding immediate production while allowing us to benefit from strengthening LNG market fundamentals and improved pricing.’ ---------- Jadestone Energy PLC - Singapore-based oil and gas company - Due to the Cyclone Narelle in Australian, shut down its Stag field facilities on March 23, and demobilized the platform. Notes no release of hydrocarbons, which it has notified to the regulator. Comments: ‘Jadestone is currently assessing the damage to the Stag facilities, while also developing repair plans and a schedule for the resumption of production. The group has appropriate insurance in place, for both physical damage and loss of production income and is working with insurers through the standard claims process. Based on information currently available, Jadestone does not expect this incident to have a material financial impact on the group’s current year or longer-term cashflow projections.’ ---------- Copyright 2026 Alliance News Ltd.
