Union Jack Oil Plans BTC Mining Using West Newton Gas Supply

Union Jack Oil plc has announced bold plans to leverage its gas reserves for Bitcoin mining. In partnership with Reabold Resources and others, the company has signed a non-binding letter of intent with Texas-based 360 Energy Inc.

The agreement outlines the use of West Newton gas to power on-site Bitcoin mining operations. This move marks an innovative shift for the traditionally conservative energy sector. Union Jack aims to convert natural gas directly into electricity, fuelling a modular data center designed for BTC mining.

West Newton Site: A New Digital Frontier

West Newton, located in Yorkshire, holds an estimated 200 billion cubic feet of recoverable gas. Rathlin Energy, operator of the site on behalf of the joint venture, has conducted a feasibility study. The study supports early monetisation through In-Field Computing (IFC) solutions.

360 Energy’s IFC platform captures stranded or flared gas and converts it into electricity. That electricity powers modular data centers, enabling efficient, low-carbon Bitcoin mining on location. If approved, the first unit will be deployed at the West Newton A site, targeting gas from the WNA-2 well. The aim is to generate near-term revenue before a full-scale gas development is approved. Preliminary estimates suggest the project could yield strong financial returns.

Regulatory and Strategic Outlook

Union Jack’s Executive Chairman, David Bramhill, called the plan a “positive update.” He stated that the company is thinking creatively to unlock value from untapped resources. The mining initiative could also lead to a new Bitcoin Treasury strategy if successful.

Bramhill acknowledged that regulatory uncertainty has slowed progress. However, he noted early signs of improvement in the UK’s stance toward onshore energy development. He emphasized the synergy between Union Jack’s traditional oil and gas expertise and the forward-looking digital mining venture. “Onshore producers must now think outside the box,” Bramhill said. “This project aligns with our goal to create sustainable returns for shareholders.”

A Fusion of Energy and Technology

Union Jack’s collaboration with 360 Energy highlights a growing intersection of legacy energy and modern finance. As natural gas producers seek profitable, low-emission alternatives, Bitcoin mining offers a compelling path.

If implemented, this venture could serve as a model for others. It shows how stranded or idle gas reserves might fuel decentralized finance, quite literally. While still in early stages, the project signals how traditional energy firms can evolve in a digital-first world.
