Recently, Reabold released a presentation providing additional details on the assets it will acquire from Corallian for consideration of GBP250,000.

Reabold’s investment strategy

Reabold first invested in Corallian in 2017 to support the company’s efforts to explore and appraise the assets located in the UK offshore. Corallian acquired Victory during the 32nd licensing round held in 2020. In the year 2021, RBD increased its stake in Corallian to 49.99%. Reabold’s investment allowed Corallian to achieve key milestones, including the submission of key drafts for the Field Development Plan and Environmental Survey.
