CAPRICORN ENERGY PLC
CAPRICORN ENERGY PLC is a Public Limited Company registered in United Kingdom under SC226712, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 7 January 2002 and lists its registered address as Edinburgh, United Kingdom. 2 shareholders are on record for CAPRICORN ENERGY PLC, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Companies House and was last updated on 18 September 2026.

Shareholders of CAPRICORN ENERGY PLC

The largest of these is American Century ETF Trust-Avantis International Equity ETF, holding 8.4% — the largest recorded stake — followed by iShares Trust-iShares International Small-Cap Equity Factor ETF at 4.8%.

Directors and officers of CAPRICORN ENERGY PLC
The Director of CAPRICORN ENERGY PLC currently on record is Richard Herbert; seven of the 40 officer records shown for CAPRICORN ENERGY PLC are current appointments, filed with Companies House. The remaining 33 records shown (Iain Meiklejohn, Kevin Hart and 31 others) are former appointments that have since been resigned. Management authority at CAPRICORN ENERGY PLC sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control. The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.
Data availability
The register reports 41 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 40 most relevant records are shown here.
Group Structure
Group structure of CAPRICORN ENERGY PLC
CAPRICORN ENERGY PLC has no recorded parent company — it sits at the top of its own group structure, with 5 subsidiaries recorded beneath it across 2 jurisdictions. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.
- CAPRICORN ENERGY INVESTMENTS LIMITED (United Kingdom)
- CAIRN UK HOLDINGS LIMITED (United Kingdom)
- Capricorn Energy Plc (Norway)
- CAPRICORN SENEGAL (HOLDING) LIMITED (United Kingdom)
- CAPRICORN OIL LIMITED (United Kingdom)
Data availability
Those 5 subsidiaries span United Kingdom, Norway jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. Three of the 5 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
