Dragon Oil Shares

Hi, probably a lost cause but.....

I had a few Dragon Oil shares dating back to the 90's but unfortunately I've moved house a few times and not kept my details up to date.

Obviously these shares we subject to a compulsory buyout at some point but I missed out. I still have the original certificate but don't know what to do with it.

I had registered on the Capita Portal but that has subsequently disappeared and I'm struggling to get access to the replacement from Link.

Am I wasting my time? Are the new owners under any obligation to pay me for my shares this long after the buyout?

Any help or suggestions gratefully received.
