Central Petroleum与ADZ Energy达成协议，将业务拓展至澳大利亚南部的陆上奥特威盆地PEP169区块以及库珀盆地保留租约和PEL677许可证区块。根据协议，Central Petroleum获得PEP169区块Enterprise North勘探区20%的权益，计划于2026年中后期钻探一口勘探井；同时获得库珀盆地24个租约区块49%的权益，计划于2026年末至2027年初钻探两到三口勘探井。

Central 的总经理 Leon Devaney 表示，此次收购使公司转型为一家拥有近期钻探机会和巨大增长潜力的多盆地勘探公司。

Central Petroleum entered into agreements with ADZ Energy to expand into the onshore Otway Basin PEP169 and the Cooper Basin retention leases and PEL677 permit in southern Australia. The deals give Central a 20% interest in the Enterprise North prospect in PEP169, with an exploration well planned for mid-late 2026; and a 49% interest across 24 Cooper Basin leases, with two to three exploration wells targeted in late 2026 to early 2027.

Central managing director Leon Devaney said the acquisition shifts the company toward a multi-basin explorer with near-term drilling opportunities and significant growth potential.
