Appointment of CCEG as Blockchain Developer and Cryptocurrency Platform Provider

Wildcat Petroleum plc (LSE: WCAT), which is targeting investment opportunities in businesses and assets within the upstream sector of the petroleum industry and exploring the implementation of blockchain technology within the sector, is pleased to announce that it has appointed the Centre for Citizenship, Enterprise and Governance ("CCEG") as its Blockchain Developer and Cryptocurrency Platform Provider.

The Company has commissioned the CCEG to produce a report into the application of blockchain technology to the upstream sector of the petroleum industry and how best to implement this into future acquired oil exploration and production assets. In particular the report will look at issues of regulatory approval and appropriate jurisdictions in the event that the Company would conduct an ICO or launch an asset backed Token.

Mandhir Singh, Chairman of Wildcat, commented: "While we continue to make progress seeking a deal in the oil and gas sector, we are extremely excited to be making excellent strides in advancing the blockchain aspect of our growth strategy. Having a recognised global player such as CCEG as our partner will be invaluable in facilitating legal compliance, system integrity and to ensure that our approach is robust."

Professor Olinga Taeed, founder and director of CCEG commented: "CCEG is the home of the Social Earnings Ratio® (S/E), the corollary of the Price Earnings Ratio (P/E) which universally drives stock markets all over the world. We applaud Wildcat for their Total Value commitment to make impactful investment central to their core values. With the burgeoning of fintech instruments like tokenisation, first movers have great market advantage."
