Greenland Energy Co

The US company Greenland Energy shipped camp and drilling equipment to Nerlerit Inaat despite lacking the required individual permits and environmental studies. The Greenlandic government publicly halted the project; an approved drilling start is realistically not possible before winter 2027 due to the lengthy permitting process. Local opposition over risks to hunting and wildlife, as well as the project's political connections, have intensified the controversy. » Más en handelsblatt.com

Greenland Energy and partners had equipment brought to Nunap Qeqqa but do not have the required permits. The Greenland government says planned drilling by White Flame Energy in winter 2026/2027 is unlikely to take place because an environmental impact assessment and public hearings are missing. It is demanding a "realistic timetable"; 80 Mile says it is disappointed, and a permit is not expected before next year. » Más en spiegel.de

Greenland authorities said regulatory and environmental reviews cannot be completed in time, forcing Greenland Energy to postpone planned drilling in the Jameson Land region until at earliest winter 2027. The delay follows the company bringing equipment ashore without permission and raises concerns about impacts on protected wetlands and local livelihoods. Shares fell over a third after the announcement; Greenland Energy says it will refine plans and deepen engagement with communities and regulators. » Más en theguardian.com
