In late April 2018, internal sources reported that Express Petroleum & Gas Co Ltd and Misana Energy Resources sold its 15% each interest in Sudanâs Block 25 to the state-owned Sudan Petroleum Corp (Sudapet). Â With the exit of these two Nigerian companies, Sudapet would become 100% owner of the block until the pending MOU with the State Oil Corp (State) company is closed. State is since several months under negotiations for a deal with Sudapet to farm-in up to 50% of its working interest in Block 25. When signed, State will become a fully owned operating subsidiary of the Vancouver based Stamper Oil & Gas Corp (Stamper).   Block 25 is located in the south of Sudan, in the border with South Sudan, Melut Basin. It was officially awarded in February 2015 to Express Petroleum and Misana Energy with the 15% interest each while Sudapet was the operator with the 70% of the stake. Block 25 hosts two developing fields, Rawat Central and Wateesh.
