Pantheon Resources PLC Announces New Executive Team Appointments
LONDON, UK / ACCESS Newswire / June 9, 2025 / Pantheon Resources plc (AIM:PANR) ('Pantheon' or the 'Company'), an oil and gas company developing the Kodiak and Ahpun oil fields in close proximity to pipeline and transportation infrastructure on Alaska's North Slope, is pleased to announce the following appointments to the Executive Team to complete the next phase of its strategic plan-transitioning to development and production and listing on a senior US exchange.
Appointment of Tralisa Maraj as Chief Financial Officer
Tralisa Maraj has been appointed Chief Financial Officer ('CFO'), succeeding Phil Patman. Tralisa's appointment will be effective 14 July, 2025.
In her role as CFO, Tralisa will lead the Finance Team to complete the transformation of Pantheon from a pre-revenue AIM-listed enterprise to a material Alaska North Slope producer listed on a senior U.S. exchange. She brings with her more than 25 years of experience, including having previously been the CFO of two publicly listed companies.
Tralisa's career began at Price Waterhouse Coopers in Trinidad. Having established herself as a Finance Executive, she became corporate controller at Remora Oil and Gas, followed by her appointment as CFO for Canadian-listed CGX Energy, and most recently, as CFO of the US-listed LiveWire Group Inc.
Tralisa is a chartered accountant (UK) and licensed CPA in Texas.
Appointment of Erich Krumanocker as Chief Development Officer
Erich Krumanocker has been appointed Chief Development Officer ('CDO'), succeeding Bob Rosenthal, to spearhead the Company's subsurface technical leadership. Bob has indicated his desire to step down from the Board of Directors and retire from the Company at the conclusion of the Company's upcoming board meeting on 13 June, 2025.
In his role as CDO, Erich will manage the transition of projects from exploration and appraisal through to development and production. Erich brings with him over 25 years of global experience in driving development, operations and project execution at scale across multiple continents.
Erich's career originated as a Petroleum Engineer with BP plc on the North Slope of Alaska, with vast experience in the North Sea, Azerbaijan and the U.S., with his BP career culminating as a VP of Production and Operations. Erich joins Pantheon most recently from Microsoft, where he served as a Partner leading digital transformation across the manufacturing and energy sectors.
Max Easley, Chief Executive Officer, commented: 'We are delighted to welcome Tralisa and Erich to the Pantheon Executive Team. They will be key in enacting our pivot from a world-class exploration and appraisal team to an equally successful development and operations team. Pantheon will benefit from a combined 50 years of international experience between the two. I also want to thank Phil Patman for his efforts in delivering a strong financial platform for growth through this transition and an ultimate US listing.'
David Hobbs, Pantheon's Chairman, added: 'I would like to add my welcome to Tralisa and Erich. In addition, I also want to express my personal gratitude to Bob Rosenthal, who has been a key member of the leadership of the Company. He was a founder of Pantheon some 20 years ago, then became a founder of Great Bear a few years later. Bob returned to Pantheon 7 years ago to help with the acquisition of Great Bear and then lead the technical team through the journey of discovering and appraising the Ahpun and Kodiak fields to demonstrate the potential for resources that are now independently certified at some 1.6 billion barrels of ANS Crude and 6.6 tcf of natural gas. His leadership has helped position the Company to be a significant part of Alaska's energy future.'

About Pantheon Resources
Pantheon Resources plc is an AIM-listed Oil & Gas company focused on developing its 100% owned Ahpun and Kodiak fields located on State of Alaska land on the North Slope, onshore USA. Independently certified best estimate contingent recoverable resources attributable to these projects currently total c. 1.6 billion barrels of ANS crude and 6.6 Tcf (trillion cubic feet) of associated natural gas. The Company owns 100% working interest in c. 259,000 acres.
Pantheon's stated objective is to demonstrate sustainable market recognition of a value of $5-$10/bbl of recoverable resources by end 2028. This is based on bringing the Ahpun field forward to FID and producing into the TAPS main oil line (ANS crude) by the end of 2028. The Gas Sales Precedent Agreement signed with AGDC (Alaska Gasline Development Corporation) provides the potential for Pantheon's natural gas to be produced into the proposed 807-mile pipeline from the North Slope to Southcentral Alaska during 2029. Once the Company achieves financial self-sufficiency, it will apply the resultant cashflows to support the FID on the Kodiak field planned, subject to regulatory approvals, targeted by the end of 2028 or early 2029.
A major differentiator to other ANS projects is the close proximity to existing roads and pipelines which offers a significant competitive advantage to Pantheon, allowing for shorter development timeframes, materially lower infrastructure costs and the ability to support the development with a significantly lower pre-cashflow funding requirement than is typical in Alaska. Furthermore, the low CO2 content of the associated gas allows export into the planned natural gas pipeline from the North Slope to Southcentral Alaska without significant pre-treatment.
The Company's project portfolio has been endorsed by world-renowned experts. Netherland, Sewell & Associates estimate a 2C contingent recoverable resource in the Kodiak project that total 1,208 mmbbl (million barrels) of ANS crude and 5,396 bcf (billion cubic feet) of natural gas. Cawley Gillespie & Associates estimate 2C contingent recoverable resources for Ahpun's western topset horizons at 282 mmbbl of ANS crude and 803 bcf of natural gas. Lee Keeling & Associates estimated possible reserves and 2C contingent recoverable resources totalling 79 mmbbl of ANS crude and 424 bcf natural gas.

London Assembly Members Tell Mayor To Oppose Car Bloat
Old Mini next to new Mini. A majority of Members of the London Assembly—the 25-member elected body that scrutinizes the work of the London Mayor—voted on June 5 to oppose 'carspreading,' the phenonomen of automobiles becoming wider, heavier and taller. This car bloat, also known as 'autobesity,' damages London's roads, said the London Assembly motion, causing congestion, and putting pedestrians, cyclists and other drivers at greater risk of death and serious injury. Cars are getting bigger by an average of 1 centimeter every two years, with many new cars now too large for U.K. minimum parking spaces. Elly Baker AM, who proposed the motion, said: 'London's streets weren't designed for larger vehicles like SUVs, which now make up a third of all cars on the road. Their greater size, weight, and higher [hoods] put vulnerable road users at greater risk, reduce available parking spaces, and cause more wear and tear on our roads.' She added: 'It's time we took sensible steps to manage the impact of oversized cars and ensure our streets remain safe and accessible for everyone.' The vote was won by 14 votes against eight. The motion states that the 'consequences of surging vehicle size undermine goals for road safety, air quality and put outsized pressure on public finances.' The Assembly now calls on the Mayor to write to the Department for Transport asking that they update vehicle regulations to introduce tighter limits on passenger vehicle size and hood height. The Mayor is further urged to write to HM Treasury asking for a progressive tax on passenger vehicle weight via Vehicle Excise Duty. The Assembly is also calling for London Councils to explore the feasibility of boroughs charging higher parking charges to SUVs to account for pressure they put on road space and local parking spaces. In a referendum last year, the citizens of Paris voted to triple parking fees for SUVs. Today's BMW-built Mini is much wider than the British Motor Corporation's 1959 original, and is also taller and longer. Other famous car models—such as the VW Beetle and the Ford Fiesta—have also increased markedly in size and weight. Modern cars are larger partly because of airbags, crumple zones and air conditioning units, but also because consumers prefer larger motor vehicles—hence the success of SUVs. The motor vehicle 'arms race' has led to calls from motorists for road lanes to be widened and parking spaces to be enlarged. Roads in most British cities are becoming more and more choked as wider motor cars struggle to squeeze past each other. There's an epidemic of pedestrian-unfriendly 'pavement parking'—wheels half up on the sidewalk—and tempers fray when wing mirrors are bashed as porkier cars pass each other. Research from Transport & Environment (T&E) in 2022 found that 'autobesity'—car bloat—is real, with many cars getting too big for British roads, exceeding the 180 centimeter minimum for on-street parking. More than half of new cars sold in 2023 were too wide for the minimum specified on-street parking space in major U.K. cities. Off-street parking is now a tight squeeze even for the average new car, while large luxury SUVs often make it impossible. Fatter cars are heavier cars. And heavier cars cause more highway damage. Richard Hebditch, UK Director for T&E UK, said: 'The trend of cars getting wider has been progressing for decades and that trend will continue until the U.K. sets stricter limits. Currently we allow new cars to be as wide as trucks. This has meant our roads are now home to big SUVs and American style pick-up trucks that are parking on our footpaths, endangering pedestrians and cyclists and making everyone else on our roads less safe.'

UK announces $19 billion investment in first major nuclear plant since the 1990s
LONDON (AP) — Britain will invest 14.2 billion pounds ($19 billion) to build a new nuclear station that will reduce the U.K.'s reliance on volatile international fossil fuel markets, the government said Tuesday. Officials said the investment will go into building the new Sizewell C nuclear power plant in Suffolk, on England's eastern coast, saying it will generate enough low-carbon electricity to power 6 million homes when it becomes operational in the 2030s. Prime Minister Keir Starmer said previous governments had dithered and delayed over nuclear power. No new nuclear plant has been opened in the U.K. since Sizewell B in 1995. 'Having our own energy in this country that we control, gives us security, gives us independence, so (Russian President Vladimir) Putin can't put his boot on our throat,' Starmer said. 'And it means that we can control the prices in a way that we haven't been able to in recent years, which has meant very high prices for businesses, for households and for families.' The government also announced that Rolls-Royce is the preferred bidder to develop a number of small modular reactors, which it said can power around 3 million homes and help fuel power-hungry industries like AI data centers. The Treasury said building Sizewell C will create 10,000 jobs. The investment announced Tuesday is in addition to 3.7 billion pounds the U.K. government already committed to the project. Nuclear power is seen as an increasingly important electricity source as the government seeks to decarbonize Britain's electricity grid by 2030, replacing fossil fuels with low-carbon power. The U.K. also wants to reduce its dependence on imported oil and gas, especially in light of soaring energy prices following Russia's invasion of Ukraine. But critics have said nuclear plants are far more expensive and slow to build compared with renewable energy options such as solar and wind power. Environmental groups have also argued Sizewell C will damage local nature reserves that host wildlife like otters and marsh birds. About 300 people joined a protest against the development at the Suffolk site over the weekend. 'Net zero is supposed to happen by 2030 — there is no way this is going to be completed by then,' said Jenny Kirtley, a local resident who chairs the campaign group Together Against Sizewell C.
