Further to the announcement on 20 July 2017 regarding African Petroleum’s A1 and A4 licenses in The Gambia, the Company confirms that it continues to await feedback from the government of The Gambia on its proposal to enter into the next phase of the licenses and transfer the outstanding well commitment into the new phase.

The Company expects to receive formal feedback and clarity on the A1 and A4 licence situation from the government within the next few weeks.
