Notes to Authors

 

Egdon Resources plc

 

Egdon Resources plc (LSE: EDR) is an established UK-based exploration and production company primarily focused on onshore exploration and production in the hydrocarbon-producing basins of the UK and Europe.

 

Egdon currently holds interests in thirty five licences in the UK and France and has an active programme of exploration, appraisal and development within its balanced portfolio of oil and gas assets. Egdon is an approved operator in both the UK and France.

 

Egdon has production from the Keddington and Kirklington oil fields in the East Midlands and the Avington oil field in Hampshire. Further oil and gas production is anticipated from Kirkleatham and Ceres in 2010 and Waddock Cross in 2011.

 

On completion of the acquisition of Encore E&P Limited, Egdon will acquire a further two permits onshore France.

 

Egdon has announced a disposal of its French subsidiary to eCORP. This will result in two French permits being transferred from Egdon ownership on completion which is expected shortly.

 

Egdon Resources plc listed on AIM in January 2008, following the demerger of its gas storage business, Portland Gas plc (now renamed Infrastrata plc). The pre-demerged business was formed in 1997 and listed on AIM in December 2004.
