Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Having consulted with the customer, the directors believe it is a reasonable assumption that the regulatory approval in respect of field operations will be granted beyond 31 December 2025. As such, the directors have developed a reasonable expectation that the company will continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future and accordingly have prepared the financial statements under the going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “On 25th March 2022, the Bareboat Charter was amended to last for an undefined period up to cancellation by either party with a 6-month cancellation period. At the end of this, the company's Bareboat Charter will expire and the company will be wound up.”
