Oregen Energy Corp. (CSE: ORNG) (OTCQB: ORGEF) (FSE: A1S0) announced the appointment of petroleum geoscientist and former Impact Oil & Gas Exploration Director Philip Birch as strategic advisor. The move comes as the company evaluates a potential investment in Namibia's offshore Block 2812Ab in the Orange Basin, a region that has emerged as a world-class petroleum province following major discoveries by international operators.
Birch played a key role in identifying and advancing the Venus prospect prior to its successful drilling by TotalEnergies. According to Oregen, his expertise will support 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 appointment signals Oregen's intent to leverage deep industry knowledge as it assesses opportunities in the highly prospective Orange Basin.
The block under evaluation is located in an area that has attracted significant attention from major oil companies. Recent discoveries by TotalEnergies and Shell have confirmed the basin's potential, making it one of the most active exploration frontiers globally. Oregen's current flagship investment is a 33.95% net interest in Block 2712A in the Orange Basin offshore Namibia, positioning the company to benefit from ongoing exploration success in the region.
Oregen Energy is an investment company primarily focused on oil and gas assets in Africa. The company is actively exploring other investment opportunities in the Orange and surrounding basins. The addition of Birch is expected to enhance the company's technical capabilities as it seeks to expand its portfolio in this emerging petroleum province.
