Primary exploration firm Rift Helium is to list on London Stock Exchange’s Alternative Investment Market (AIM) market from the middle of April.
The company has already raised £8m which will support environmental impact assessment approval, 3D seismic-led prospect definition and drilling at the 238 sq km Upepo project in southwest Tanzania. Well targeting and drilling are planned for the first half of 2027 and up to 41 bcf has been identified in the ‘flagship’ licence block.
