Upland Resources ( (GB:UPL) ) has provided an announcement.

Upland Resources has signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding with PT Pembangunan Aceh, the Aceh provincial government-owned energy and mineral investment authority, to collaborate on a feasibility and development plan for the MY1 and MY2 onshore blocks in Aceh, Indonesia. The agreement aligns Upland with the province’s devolved upstream governance structure and positions it within the prolific North Sumatra petroleum system, which hosts significant existing discoveries and infrastructure.

Under the MoU, Upland and PEMA will conduct a joint feasibility study covering technical, financial, legal and risk aspects, targeting production optimisation from existing fields in Block MY1 and high-impact exploration across both blocks. Preliminary internal assumptions envisage a phased development that could ramp up output to around 20,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day over five years, leveraging existing infrastructure, basin-scale exploration potential and a US$100 million funding commitment from strategic partner Lost Soldier Oil & Gas to support medium-term growth in Aceh.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:UPL) stock is a Hold with a £3.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Upland Resources stock, see the GB:UPL Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on GB:UPL Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:UPL is a Neutral.

The score is primarily held down by weak financial performance—no revenue, ongoing losses, and worsening cash outflows in 2024—implying elevated funding risk. Technicals provide only modest support (price above longer-term averages but soft near-term momentum), while valuation offers limited support given the negative P/E and no dividend yield data.
