The company is evaluating a potential investment in Namibia’s offshore Block 2812Ab in the Orange Basin, and Birch’s expertise is expected to support exploration strategy, subsurface evaluation, and technical positioning.
Birch played a key role in identifying and advancing the Venus prospect prior to its successful drilling by TotalEnergies. The Venus discovery is one of the largest in the region, and Block 2812Ab sits adjacent to it within the same proven petroleum fairway. Oregen Energy stated that Birch’s experience will be instrumental as the company considers this investment.
Oregen Energy is an investment company focused on oil and gas assets in Africa. Its current flagship investment is a 33.95% net interest in Block 2712A in the Orange Basin offshore Namibia, an emerging world-class petroleum province with multiple recent discoveries by major operators.

The Orange Basin has attracted significant attention from major oil companies due to recent discoveries, including the Venus find by TotalEnergies and others by Shell and QatarEnergy.

The appointment of Birch signals Oregen Energy's commitment to expanding its footprint in this promising area.
