David Golder, Chairman of PetroNeft Resources plc, commented:
“Today was a very important day for PetroNeft. The Board has proposed a strategy for the next phase of the company’s development which has been overwhelmingly supported by the shareholders today. Of approximately 850 individual shareholders voting, more than 810 shareholders supported the Board’s recommendations. This gives us a mandate to conclude the farm out with Oil India and to progress the development of our asset, debt free and with a fully funded US$45m work programme. We look forward to working with a great new partner, Oil India Limited, in developing the significant potential in Licence 61.”
