The latest announcement is out from MEC Resources Ltd ( (AU:MMR) ).
MEC Resources has updated investors on legal proceedings involving its 37.95% investee Advent Energy and joint venture partner Bounty Oil & Gas over the PEP 11 offshore exploration permit. The companies have sought judicial review in the Federal Court of Australia of a Joint Authority decision that refused their applications to extend and vary the PEP 11 permit.
The Federal Court hearing in Sydney before Justice Jackson concluded on 20 and 23 February 2026, with both sides submitting affidavits, agreed document bundles, and written and oral arguments. A decision has been reserved to a later date, and the outcome could materially affect the future of the PEP 11 project and, by extension, MEC’s exposure to the asset and its strategic position in offshore exploration.
