Orca Energy Group and its subsidiaries settled a legal dispute with Swala Oil and Gas (Tanzania) plc, discontinuing Tanzanian court proceedings (Case No. 11561 of 2025) and halting an anti-suit injunction in England’s High Court. The agreement, announced February 27, 2026, replaces litigation with confidential arbitration under London Court of International Arbitration rules, with London as the arbitration seat. Orca, a TSX-V-listed natural gas developer (symbols ORC.A, ORC.B), operates in Tanzania through PanAfrican Energy Tanzania Limited, its primary subsidiary. Swala, in liquidation, had pursued claims against Orca in Tanzania, while Orca countered with an injunction in the UK to block those proceedings. Contacts for Orca include CEO Jay Lyons and CFO Lisa Mitchell, with media inquiries directed to Celicourt PR. No exchange liability was assumed for the release.
