About Jadestone Energy
Jadestone Energy plc is an
independent upstream company focused on the Asia-Pacific
region. It has a balanced and increasingly diversified
portfolio of production and development assets in Australia,
Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam, all stable jurisdictions
with a positive upstream investment climate.
Led by an experienced management
team with a track record of delivery, who were core to the
successful growth of Talisman Energy's business in Asia-Pacific,
the Company is pursuing a strategy to grow and diversify the
Company's production base both organically, through developments
such as Akatara in Indonesia and Nam Du/U Minh in Vietnam, as well
as through acquisitions that fit within Jadestone's financial
framework and play to the Company's strengths in managing maturing
oil assets. Jadestone delivers value in its acquisition strategy by
enhancing returns through operating efficiencies, cost reductions
and increased production through further investment.
Jadestone is a responsible operator
and well positioned for the energy transition through its
increasing gas production, by maximising recovery from existing
brownfield developments and through its Net Zero pledge on Scope 1
& 2 GHG emissions from operated assets by 2040. This strategy
is aligned with the IEA Net Zero by 2050 scenario, which stresses
the necessity of continued investment in existing upstream assets
to avoid an energy crisis and meet demand for oil and gas through
the energy transition.
Jadestone Energy plc (LEI:
21380076GWJ8XDYKVQ37) is listed on the AIM market of the London
Stock Exchange (AIM: JSE). The Company is headquartered in
