Galilee Energy (ASX: GLL) is pleased to announce that it has been successful in its R&D application and received a refundable R&D Tax offset of $2,789,155 for the 2019/20 financial year.

The R&D Tax Incentive is an Australian Government programme under which eligible companies are entitled to receive a 43.5% refundable offset for eligible expenditure incurred on eligible research and development activities.

The incentive received results from the R&D expenditure incurred on both the Glenaras Multi Well Pilot and the Water Management Project. While Galilee is fully funded for its current activities, this R&D offset further strengthens the Company's cash position and will supplement our planned commercialisation activities to drive the Glenaras Gas Project forward and accelerate timing to commercial gas supply.
