FOGL is focused exclusively on offshore oil and gas exploration in the Falkland Islands.

We are pursuing an aggressive exploration programme that could lead to the development of a new petroleum province in the South Atlantic.

The joint venture operations have now moved into the well planning approvals phase. The recently completed site surveys represented the final phase of offshore activities prior to drilling.
