Name Change to UK Energy Group PLC

Summary by AI BETAClose X

UK Oil & Gas PLC is changing its name to UK Energy Group PLC, effective September 11, 2026, to reflect a strategic shift away from the UK onshore oil and gas sector towards geological energy storage and clean power, with its TIDM ticker symbol changing from UKOG to UKEN.

UK Oil & Gas PLC (London AIM: UKOG) is pleased to announce that the Company has changed its name to UK Energy Group PLC ("UKEn"), reflecting the Company's exit from the UK onshore oil and gas sector and its change of strategic direction within the UK to geological energy (hydrogen) storage and related clean power.

 

As of Friday 11th September 2026, the Company's name will change as indicated above on the London Stock Exchange, the TIDM ticker symbol will change from UKOG to UKEN and the Company's website will change to www.ukenplc.com, reflecting the Company's new identity.

It should be noted that the name change has no impact upon shareholders' rights and existing share certificates will remain valid and should be retained.
