"Georgina Energy remains on track to obtain its re-entry and drilling approvals from DEMIRS, supporting our strategy of low-risk well re-development projects in Australia. These projects focus on unlocking significant prospective resources of natural gas, hydrogen and helium. The execution of the Aztech contract and drilling permit for the Hussar project is a crucial first step to proving our concept."
