The latest announcement is out from United Oil & Gas Plc ( (GB:UOG) ).
United Oil & Gas has completed the second stage of its Surface Geochemical Exploration programme and begun the critical third stage of piston coring on the Walton‑Morant licence offshore Jamaica. The work is concentrated mainly in the Walton Basin near the Colibri, Streamertail and Oriole prospects, with additional locations in the Morant Basin targeted using integrated multibeam and seismic data.
Up to 42 seabed cores will be collected over about a week for laboratory analysis in Houston to test for thermogenic hydrocarbons, which would provide physical evidence of an active petroleum system. The programme is positioned as a key step in de‑risking the Jamaican acreage, refining geological models and supporting technical evaluation and commercial discussions that could shape future exploration and partnership opportunities on the licence.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:UOG) stock is a Hold with a £0.18 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on United Oil & Gas Plc stock, see the GB:UOG Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on GB:UOG Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:UOG is a Neutral.
The score is held back primarily by weak financial performance (zero revenue and continued losses, plus volatile cash generation), partially offset by low leverage. Technical indicators are a key positive, showing an established uptrend with solid momentum. Valuation remains a concern because earnings are negative and the P/E is not meaningfully supportive.
