The Department of Infrastructure (DoI) has granted Crogga another extension to its licence.
The company plans to extract gas from the Manx seabed.
The DoI and Crogga are working together to cover a “small number” of outstanding issues in relation to varying the terms of the company’s Seaward Production Innovative Licence.
According to the DoI, the process is in now its closing stages, and an extension period of seven weeks has been agreed between the two parties to finalise matters.
The licence currently requires the company to undertake a work programme as part of Phase B, which includes a 3D seismic survey, prior to moving to exploratory drilling in Phase C.
The variation request would allow drilling on the basis of a 2D survey.
