Zenith Energy ( (GB:ZEN) ) has issued an announcement.

Zenith Energy Ltd. has faced significant challenges in its Tunisian operations, particularly with the Robbana and El Bibane oil concessions. The Tunisian authorities have obstructed oil sales, leading to financial strain on Zenith’s subsidiary, Ecumed Petroleum Tunisia Ltd (EPT), which has incurred costs of approximately US$2 million. The situation escalated with the unauthorized sale of 3,987 barrels of oil by the Tunisian national oil company, ETAP, without compensation to EPT. This action is part of a broader pattern of alleged unlawful expropriation and breaches of contractual obligations by Tunisian authorities, prompting Zenith to pursue legal remedies to assert its rights and seek justice.
