The transaction involves the acquisition of March GL by Greenland Exploration and Pelican, with March GL valued at approximately $215 million. The remaining 30% of the Jameson project is valued at $92 million. The combined company aims to explore and develop the Jameson Land Basin in East Greenland, which has significant potential as a hydrocarbon basin [1].
The Jameson Land Basin has been the focus of extensive exploration and research for decades. ARCO, shortly after its discovery of the Prudhoe Bay oil field in Alaska, invested in evaluating the basin, including detailed field mapping and seismic data acquisition. Despite this, the basin remained undrilled due to corporate and macroeconomic conditions of the time [1].
March GL has now built on this foundation, reprocessing the legacy seismic data with modern technology. This work has identified over 50 distinct oil and gas targets, many with clear structural and stratigraphic trapping potential. The Greenland Government has approved the mobilization of heavy equipment, and March GL has signed agreements with Halliburton for drilling services and a leading shipping company for a 3,500-meter-capable drilling rig [1].
The post-closing board of directors and executive management team of Greenland Energy Company will be led by Larry G. Swets, Jr. as Executive Chairman and Robert Price as Chief Executive Officer. The transaction is expected to close in Q4 2025 [1].
The merger establishes a robust foundation for growth and creates a platform to responsibly unlock Greenland's vast potential while generating substantial value for all stakeholders. Greenland Energy aims to drive energy security, economic diversification, and strategic independence for the United States and its allied partners [1].
For further information, interested parties can refer to the registration statement on Form S-4 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) [1].
