Energy AB (publ) (formerly Svenska Capital Oil AB (publ)) is a Swedish
upstream
oil and gas company with operations in Ukraine. The company was founded
in 2004
and its shares are since 12 June 2007 traded on Nasdaq First North.
In 2011,
Misen Energy AB (publ) acquired Misen Enterprises AB and its
Ukrainian
subsidiary, LLC Karpatygaz, including the rights to 50.01% of the
revenue and
profit from a gas production project in Ukraine. Under IFRS rules,
this
transaction is classified as a reverse takeover. In consideration of
the
acquisition, a new share issue was carried out.
The gas producing assets
have been acquired by production cooperation via a
joint activity project
governed by a Joint Activity Agreement between the wholly
-owned direct and
indirect subsidiaries of Misen Energy AB (publ), i.e. Misen
Enterprises AB and
LLC Karpatygaz (together 50.01%) and PJSC Ukrgasvydobuvannya

substantially higher than the purchase price for Misen
Enterprises AB.

oil
by providing modern technologies via a large-scale investment program.
