Current & Recent Activity

SITLA has made the conscious decision to defer the Oil and Gas Competitive Lease Offering until July, due to current market factors affected by the COVID-19 outbreak. We extend our gratitude to all stakeholders and wish everyone all the best during these challenging times. We look forward to working with you over the coming days and remain available for your questions. Stay safe! – SITLA OG Team
