Europa Oil & Gas (Holdings) PLC - UK and Ireland-focused oil and gas exploration, development and production company - Updates on the company’s application for a licence as part of the 33rd UK Offshore Licensing Round that closed in January. Says the North Sea Transition Authority proposes a marriage between Europa and another party for the Licence. But, Europa decides not to accept the proposed marriage and also notifies the NSTA that, if the NSTA subsequently decide to award the Licence, in its entirety to the company as the sole owner, Europa would decline the offer. Europa explains that since its original application various aspects of the operating conditions and the fiscal environment have changed and remain uncertain. This reduces the economic and strategic attractiveness of the licence. As such, Europa believes that its resources are better deployed on its existing assets and looking for new opportunities within its core areas of focus.
