The latest announcement is out from Advance Energy ( (GB:BCE) ).

Beacon Energy has strengthened its strategic position in LNEnergy, with CEO Stewart MacDonald joining LNEnergy’s board and its 49%-owned vehicle, LNE IOM Limited, fully participating in a £780,000 rights offering that leaves its indirect stake in LNEnergy at about 48%. Subject to conditions expected to be met mid-2026, Beacon plans to increase its ownership of LNE IOM Limited to 100%, deepening its exposure to the Colle Santo gas project.

LNEnergy will deploy the rights issue proceeds to advance the Colle Santo project, including well integrity tests on two existing wells slated for May 2026 and completion of FEED in the second quarter. Beacon has published updated projections showing that, at higher European gas prices, its 42.3% indirect economic interest could yield a significantly higher NPV than previously estimated, underlining the potential value uplift as the project progresses toward a final investment decision and eventual production.
