Oregen Energy Corp. (CSE: ORNG) (OTCQB: ORGEF) (FSE: A1S0) has appointed Philip Birch, a petroleum geoscientist and former Exploration Director of Impact Oil & Gas, as a strategic advisor. The move comes as the company evaluates a potential investment in Namibia’s offshore Block 2812Ab in the Orange Basin. Birch played a key role in identifying and advancing the Venus prospect prior to its successful drilling by TotalEnergies, and his expertise will support Oregen's exploration strategy, subsurface evaluation and technical positioning related to the block, which sits adjacent to the Venus discovery within the same proven petroleum fairway.
The Orange Basin has emerged as a world-class petroleum province with multiple recent discoveries by major operators. Oregen Energy is an investment company primarily focused on oil and gas assets in Africa, and its current flagship investment is a 33.95% net interest in Block 2712A in the Orange Basin offshore Namibia. The appointment of Birch underscores the company's commitment to leveraging top-tier technical talent to assess and potentially capitalize on high-impact opportunities in the region.
Birch's background includes extensive experience in exploration and appraisal of deepwater frontier basins. His involvement in the Venus discovery, one of the largest finds in the region, positions him as a valuable asset for Oregen as it seeks to expand its footprint. The company is actively exploring other investment opportunities in the Orange and surrounding basins, and Birch's guidance will be instrumental in identifying and evaluating prospects.
