UK Oil & Gas Investments PLC has announced that the Environment Agency has formally granted the necessary permit to flow test the Broadford Bridge-1 oil exploration well.
The BB-1 well is located in the 300 km² PEDL234 licence, in which the Company has a 100% interest via its ownership of the licence's operator, Kimmeridge Oil & Gas Limited.
Stephen Sanderson, UKOG's Executive Chairman, commented:
"This enables us to move onto the next phase of operation at Broadford Bridge. Our drilling and comprehensive coring programme has been very successful and we look forward to equally positive results from our flow testing operation."
