Resources round-up: Global Petroleum, Ariana, Edge Resources

AIM-listed oil and gas group Global Petroleum has finally completed the delayed interpretation of 2D seismic data in Petroleum Exploration Licence 29, offshore Namibia - in which it owns an 85 per cent interest - meaning that it can now concentrate on finding a suitable partner for the next phases of exploration activity. Meanwhile, Global says that the Juan de Nova Permit in the Mozambique Channel (30 per cent interest) is an additional highly prospective play and it is encouraged by the level of interest being shown in the area.

"Global's strong balance sheet and cash reserves mean that we can be highly selective about the opportunities we pursue.We do intend to add further asset(s) to our portfolio with the aim of building a diversified exploration business, using the existing high quality acreage - and our strong cash position - as a starting point," said Global Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Peter Hill.
