Fresh news on science and technology in Alaska
Provided by AGPAUSTIN, Texas, May 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via IBN – IBN, a multifaceted communications organization engaged in connecting public companies to the investment community, is pleased to announce the release of the latest episode of The MiningNewsWire Podcast as part of its sustained effort to provide specialized content distribution via widespread syndication channels.
The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Robert Price, CEO of Greenland Energy Company (NASDAQ: GLND), an energy company focused on Greenland's Jameson Land Basin.
To begin the interview, Price discussed Greenland Energy’s recent financing and its fully funded drilling program in the Jameson Land Basin.
“We went through a de-SPAC process and just raised $70 million… Our project is fully funded to drill two wells in Greenland. The wells are at 70 degrees latitude — the same latitude as Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, discovered by ARCO in the 60s and 70s. ARCO identified our 2-million-acre position as its number one prospect after Prudhoe Bay and spent over $275 million on seismic programs, building an airport and a seaport, but oil prices cratered and they never drilled the well. We’ve reprocessed that seismic with modern techniques, and our independent engineering report suggests an upside of over 13 billion barrels of oil. We’re drilling our first two wells this year.”
Price then outlined the geological characteristics of the basin and the project’s conventional resource profile.
“Before continental drift, our basin was part of the North Sea, so our rocks are exactly the same as the North Sea. We have oil skims on the surface that we have genetically tested to be the exact fingerprint of North Sea Brent crude, 40-degree light sweet crude. When the Ukrainian war broke out, Europe was importing over 2 million barrels of oil a day from Russia, which they stopped importing. The U.S. shale industry made up that shortfall. Well, if prices go back to $60–$70 a barrel, the U.S. cannot make up that short supply. That’s why our project, when we drill these wells, could be very significant not only to U.S. energy security, but to Europe as well.”
Looking ahead, Price detailed the operational timeline for the company’s first drilling campaign and what investors should expect through 2026.
“The logistics are already in place. Our first location is three miles from the beach. We’ll do a beach landing of drilling equipment, and we’ll have our road ready to go. During the first freeze, in the first part of October, we expect to begin drilling our very first well. Just on that first location, our independent engineering report says the well could prove up to 2.9 billion barrels of oil.”
