It said the extension followed discussions between Rockhopper and the Falkland Islands Government, securing its continued exploration and development rights in the region for the next two years.

“We are pleased to have extended the licences, enabling us to continue progressing our work in the Falkland Islands,” said chief executive officer Sam Moody.
