Genel Energy plc is an oil company with a registered office in Jersey and a field office in Turkey. The company is listed on the London Stock Exchange. It has its exploration and production operations in the Kurdistan region of Iraq, as well as exploration licences in Morocco and Somaliland. The company owns rights in three production sharing contracts in the KRI, including interests in the Taq Taq, Sarta, and Tawke licences.[2]
Genel Energy was created in 2011 as a result of the reverse acquisition of Turkish Genel Enerji by
Çukurova Group (56%) and Mehmet Sepil's family (44%). In 2009, Genel Enerji planned to merge with Heritage Oil; the deal subsequently collapsed.[4]
