The purchase, which it will make for a nominal consideration, will increase its interest in the licence to 20%.
The licence contains the North Kelsey Prospect which is located approximately 10 kilometres to the south of the Wressle-1 discovery well in PEDL180.
The estimate of total mean combined prospective resources is 6.7m barrels of oil.
It now expects that operations on the North Kelsey-1 well will begin in the first quarter of 2016.
