Watson Farley & Williams (“WFW”) has advised United Oil & Gas plc on the sale by its subsidiary, UOG Holdings Plc (“UOG”), of the entire corporate capital of UOG Italia S.r.l. to Pxog Marshall Limited, a subsidiary of Prospex Energy Plc (“Prospex”). UOG owns a 20% working interest in the Podere Gallina Licence, in which Prospex has an existing interest, which contains the Selva Gas Field in the Po Valley region of Italy. The sale was approved by the Italian Ministry of Ecological Transition (“MITE”) which was the final condition to be satisfied in the sale and purchase agreement entered into between the parties.


UOG is a full-cycle AIM-listed oil and gas company focused on low-risk production and development projects in Egypt, as well as high-impact exploration in Jamaica.

Prospex is an AIM-listed investment company focused on European energy projects.


The WFW London Corporate team that advised United OIL & Gas was led by Partner and Global Oil & Gas Sector Head Chris Kilburn, supported by Associate Clementine Freeth on the English law aspects of the transaction and with assistance from Energy Partner Heike Trischmann on oil and gas specialist matters. The WFW Italy Corporate team that advised UOG on the MITE authorisation procedure and the Italian law aspects of the transaction was led by Counsel Luca Sfrecola and Associate Giovanni Benedetto.

Chris commented: “We enjoyed working with the UOG team on this transaction which demonstrated the firm’s capabilities in international oil and gas with the support of our WFW Italy colleagues led by Luca”.
