Thor Energy PLC

("Thor" or the "Company")

Appointment of Managing Director

Thor Energy plc ("Thor") (AIM, ASX: THR, OTCQB: THORF) is pleased to announce that Mr Andrew Hume has agreed to join the Board as Managing Director based in Perth, Western Australia.

Andrew has a 27-year career in the energy sector, holding key roles in multinational companies. He commenced at Thales Group (previously known as Racal Electronics), advancing to Geosciences Manager, USA. At Shell and Murphy Oil Corp, he contributed to geoscience analysis, drilling, asset management, and portfolio growth. At Maersk Oil and Gas, he led regional new ventures before steering strategy and performance across exploration and appraisal. Following the acquisition by TotalEnergies, he led regional strategy, portfolio, planning and performance, before delivering business development, leading joint ventures and managing a multiparty decarbonisation and renewables project. Andrew's career is marked by global experience and leadership across business and technical disciplines, principally in the USA, Australia, Denmark, and the UK. He holds an Executive MBA with distinction from the University of Cambridge and BSc (Hons) Geology from the University of St. Andrews.

Alastair Clayton, Executive Chairman commented: "It's fantastic to welcome Andrew to the Board of Thor Energy as Managing Director. Andrew has an outstanding track record in the oil and gas industry worldwide. Thor has recently entered the nascent natural hydrogen sector via the soon-to-close Go Exploration acquisition thereby giving it control of one of only four granted hydrogen licences in South Australia. Andrew's business leadership and technical skills in oil and gas are directly applicable to natural hydrogen exploration and development and will therefore be key in driving the business forward. With a prospective resource for hydrogen and helium expected to be completed by leading independent industry consultants RISC soon, it is particularly satisfying to be able to cement the executive leadership to take Thor forward."
