Chief Executive Officer Hugh Mackay said: "I am highly encouraged by the performance of our producing UK assets during the first half of the year. Daily production has been consistently higher than that of the previous year despite the recent workover programme for West Firsby 7.
"Our UK production continues to generate more than enough cashflow to cover our
operating costs and provides a solid foundation from which we can develop our
other highly exciting assets."
The share price rose 11.69% to 10.75p by 14:22.
