Providence Resources Oil & Gas exploration

Irish based upstream oil and gas company Providence Resources holds offshore exploratory licences located within the 'Rathlin Basin', near Rathlin Island. Initial surveys show encouraging results and suggest the possible location of recoverable resources. The prospect, known as Polaris, is now being worked up for exploration drilling, subject to the receipt of the necessary permits and approvals.

Our Involvement

We advised Providence Resources on a wide range of planning and licencing issues relating to future exploration and drilling at the Polaris prospect. This has also included providing Providence Resources with initial advice on community & stakeholder engagement around any future exploration or extraction activities.
