On 18 April 2012, it completed a Qualifying Acquisition involving a 35% equity interest in Lime Petroleum Plc, whose assets included concessions in the Middle East. On 11 June 2012, it converted from a SPAC to an Oil and Gas Company following the Qualifying Asset Acquisition.

On 5 December 2013, the National Offshore Petroleum Titles Administrator of Australia awarded the VIC/P57 joint venture a Production Licence VIC/L31 over the West Seahorse oilfield in the offshore Gippsland Basin, Victoria, Australia. On 3 February 2014, Masirah Oil Ltd, a subsidiary of Lime Petroleum, discovered light oil in GA-South #1, the first offshore oil discovery in the east of Oman after more than 30 years of exploration activities. On 11 November 2015, Carnarvon Hibiscus completed drilling of the Sea Lion-1 exploration well in Australia.
