Falkland Oil and Gas Ltd, abbreviated to FOGL, was an energy company registered in the Falkland Islands and headquartered in London, the United Kingdom. Its business was based on exploring for offshore oil reserves off the coast of the Falklands. It owned the right to extract oil from a number of blocks to the east and the south of the islands.

FOGL was listed on the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange. The company issued an initial public offering on 14 October 2004, debuting at a price of 40p.[2] By 2010, FOGL estimated that its four best prospects could contain {{convert|8|Goilbbl|e9m3|abbr=off}},[3] with up to {{convert|60|Goilbbl|e9m3|abbr=off}} in total in all sectors off the coasts of the Falklands.[4] The share price peaked at 267p in June 2010, but slumped by half on 12 July 2010, when it was found that one of its prospect wells, Toroa, was empty [5]- as of 1 March 2015 the share price had dropped to ~31 pence.

The company merged with Rockhopper Exploration on 18 January 2016.[6]

Legal issues

Due to the ongoing disputed nature of the Falkland Islands, FOGL received criticism from Argentina. On 30 April 2014 FOGL announced the following in their annual report;

{{Quote box
|quote = Argentina legal issue

It is well documented that Argentina claims sovereignty over the Falkland Islands and the surrounding maritime

areas. The Argentine government has recently stated that it intends to take legal action against companies and

individuals with regards to this claim. Neither FOGL, nor any of its Directors have received any written notification

or legal documents from the Argentine Government with respect to such actions. FOGL's position on this issue is

clear. The Hydrocarbons Law (Law No 26.659) enacted by the government of Argentina does not apply to the

Falkland Islands or its surrounding waters, and is therefore unlawful. Any attempts to enforce Argentine domestic

legislation in relation to the Falkland Islands continental shelf are an unlawful assertion of extraterritorial

jurisdiction. As such, Argentina's action is contrary to the UN Convention of the Law of the Sea. It is also unlawful

interference with the right of the Falkland Islanders under the UN Charter to selfdetermination, their right to develop

their hydrocarbons resources and the peaceful development of their economy.
