   Dublin and London -- September 24, 2019 - Providence Resources P.l.c. 
(PVR LN, PRP ID), the Irish based Energy Company ("Providence" or the 
"Company"), notes yesterday evening's announcement at the UN Climate 
Action Summit by An Taoiseach, Leo Varadkar, which stated the Irish 
Government's intention to phase out oil exploration licences in the 
future. 
 
   The Company believes that the phasing out only relates to the issuance 
of future oil licences and the Company presumes that all of the options, 
licences and leases already in place will be allowed to progress for 
their full duration. 
 
   Providence has a large exploration and appraisal portfolio offshore 
Ireland and the Company will be seeking clarification of the situation 
through the offices of the Irish Offshore Operators' Association 
("IOOA").  IOOA is the representative organisation for the Irish 
offshore oil and gas industry.  Its members are companies licensed by 
Government to explore for and produce oil and gas in Irish waters. 
 
   The IOOA spokesperson/CEO made the following statement on the IOOA 
website: 
 
   "IOOA look forward to seeing the full detail of the proposals to be 
outlined in the Taoiseach's speech at the Climate Action Summit this 
evening. In particular we look forward to receiving the exact detail of 
the proposed implementation of today's announcement regarding future 
exploration in Ireland. Our members remain committed to Ireland's 
efforts to transition to renewable energy, however energy security for 
Ireland is an important part of that process and we will seek a meeting 
with Government in relation to the matter in the coming weeks."
