Ascent Resources PLC - European and Hispanic American project-focused oil and gas exploration and production company - Announces receipt of a positive arbitration tribunal binding interim decision, confirming Ascent Slovenia Ltd's entitlement to proceeds above the baseline production profile from all wells in the concession area. The tribunal has now issued a binding interim decision confirming that, while in a preferential recovery position, ASL is entitled to a 90% share of the hydrocarbons produced. Therefore in addition to PG-10 and PG-11A revenues, it will now also be entitled to receive ongoing monthly revenue from incumbent wells. The tribunal will now decide the final award. Chief Executive Andrew Dennan says ASL is "very pleased" by the decision, which "underlines what has been evident to the current Ascent team for some time and now and finally is being resolved formally and in a binding way."
