history
The company was founded in 1997 as a privately held company and listed on the Australian Stock Exchange in 1999 with shares of $ 150 million and on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) on the London Stock Exchange in 2004. Roc Oil is broadly positioned both economically and geographically thanks to its production and reservoir research. It should be a company that stands out from other competitors through particularly successful mineral exploration and its subsequent successful and effective exploitation. Roc Oil took over Anzon Australia Limited (AEL) in 2008 after acquiring more than 90 percent of the shares and securing large oil and gas reserves on and offshore on the coast of Victoria .
Roc Oil is active in the international oil market, where business is done in US dollars, and works with countries that are members of OPEC as well as with others that are not.
