Serica Energy ( (GB:SQZ) ) has shared an announcement.
Serica Energy reported a strong rebound in production in November, averaging over 50,000 boepd, which reflects the potential of its portfolio. The company anticipates further production increases with the acquisition of Prax Upstream and the resumption of regular liftings from Triton, supporting its growth strategy through portfolio investment and M&A.

The company expects to complete the acquisition of Prax Upstream by mid-December, adding Lancaster production to its portfolio, and is exploring multiple M&A opportunities in the UK North Sea while progressing organic growth options.
