Hong Kong-listed Brightoil Petroleum (Holdings) Limited (Brightoil) on Wednesday (17 July) issued an update on its winding-up petitions at Hong Kong and Singapore.
A winding-up petition against Brightoil was heard at the High Court of Hong Kong on 17 July 2019, and was further adjourned to be heard on 22 July 2019.
“The Company will continue to seek legal advice in relation to the Petition. Further announcement(s) will be made by the Company as and when appropriate,” it stated.
There have since been several extensions of the moratoria following the initial winding up applications against Brightoil Singapore and Brightoil by creditors.
The last hearing at the High Court of Singapore was on 2 July 2019, and resulted in the moratoria further extended until 5 August 2019.
“The Company will continue to seek legal advice in relation to the Application. Further announcement(s) will be made by the Company as and when appropriate,” said Brightoil.
Trading in Brightoil’s shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange has suspended since 3 October 2017 due to audit issues.
