There were a few on the drillordrop site that professed to being experts on traffic planning and swing path analysis. They said the condition would never be approved by SCC. Well, they were wrong, it just took a little longer than it should have.
I am waiting for that RNS, come on silent Steve, issue an RNS. This time make it juicy and provide a proper update on HH1 and HH2z with flow rates for the last 3 months, a schedule for work-over on HH2z, and a little more meat on the bone than the usual primary school updates. I've read Janet and John books with more technical detail than the bulk of UKOF RNS's contain.
They would have put the cage on HH-1 to protect it if that was the case imo.
Other streams where investor chat have pictures. Don't think any swampies have seen it yet, otherwise they would be climbing on it :-)
Just a small top up of 4.37 mil @ .015...@ 13.12pm
Not forgetting millions of miles of bitumen impregnated surfaces to run on
Yes, it's getting colder, we need to warm this place up.
We need oil..... even my Tesla is full of oil derived products and needs black oil circles to run around on.
Tony,
Even if they had gone ahead as far as I can see the permission doesn't specify targets, so you're right no breach would have occurred, so that's nothing to do with SCC, nothing to do with me and the protestors campaign seems pretty inconsequential as well.
and just to tidy this up - from the 28 June 2019 Interims:-
'the HH-2 vertical pilot hole will be deepened into the Kimmeridge'
Vertical pilot deepened, not sidetracked, into the Kimmeridge.
As far as I'm aware this was the only time it was mentioned.
Whilst it wasn't stated how far into the Kimmetidge this statement suggests it was meant to be a lot more than just tagging the Kimmeridge:-
'to obtain key fracture imaging and rock data'
Ian
Yes - it's a discussion aboit 2019 events, but as Tony decided to make up stuff I thought I'd reply.
There was no enforcement because no permission was broken.
Drill Drop is dated 2019 old news!
Why argue. This is what was passed for HH-1 and HH-2.
SURREY COUNTY COUNCIL AS COUNTY PLANNING AUTHORITY DO HEREBY GRANT PLANNING PERMISSION FOR THE
RETENTION OF THE EXISTING EXPLORATORY WELL SITE AND VEHICULAR ACCESS ONTO HORSE HILL;
THE APPRAISAL AND FURTHER FLOW TESTING OF THE EXISTING BOREHOLE (HORSE HILL-1) FOR HYDROCARBONS, INCLUDING THE DRILLING OF A (DEVIATED) SIDETRACK WELL AND FLOW TESTING FOR HYDROCARBONS;
INSTALLATION OF A SECOND WELL CELLAR AND DRILLING A SECOND (DEVIATED) BOREHOLE (HORSE HILL-2) AND FLOW TESTING FOR HYDROCARBONS; ERECTION OF SECURITY FENCING ON AN EXTENDED SITE AREA;
MODIFICATIONS TO THE INTERNAL ACCESS TRACK; INSTALLATION OF PLANT, CABINS AND EQUIPMENT, ALL ON SOME 2.08HA, FOR A TEMPORARY PERIOD OF THREE YEARS, WITH RESTORATION TO AGRICULTURE AND WOODLAND.
Well Tony I'm not a resident, nor a campaigner, nothing to do with drill or drop.
,,,,,,,,and I've never seen UKOG using it as an excuse. Nor as far as I'm aware was there any enforcement from SSC. Anyway it could be classed as appraisal of the Kimmeridge, I'm pretty sure details of the pilot and sidetrack aren't within SSC remit anyway..
Here's a just as fanciful reason for how I stopped UKOG (who were the ones to publicise they were drilling through the Kimmeridge anyway):-
UKOG must read this board and read my posts and despite all the information they have they realised that my analysis of the Kimmeridge meant it wasn't worth bothering with and they could save the cash drilling and logging HH-2 in the Kimmeridge, which would entail another whole return trip with a new bit, then cleaning up the hole, logging runs etc, rather than go ahead with the sidetrack - and then have a bit of cash left over to cover some of the cost if there was a water issue - having read this on 2 October before they had finished the Portland drilling.
Excerpt from my 2 October 2019 post about the HH-2z ewt:-
'There could be issues - finding a water conduit, the well ending up in a less productive zone, or unexpected variation in the reservoir. But unless any of these are catastrophic the well should flow, either with or without esp help, the truly million dollar question is how well.'
I wonder how catastrophic it is?
There was a campaign claiming it was a beyond the planning application
For HH 2 that they could only pilot to the Portland and then side track, not pilot to the Kim , then sidetrack the Portland
Really,
How exactly did I prevent that?
How did protestors and Surrey prevent it?
As far as I'm aware UKOG just didn't do it, having said they would, it being in the plan etc. I've never seen a claim they were prevented from doing it. As far as I can remember it just wasn't mentioned again?
I'd like to know how my posts on here stopped it though.
Yep, agreed, Monday could be on the cards with all the data from weekend runs :-)
Someone has to say it..... wouldn't want to be out for the weekend :-)
It seems the rig is still on site.
Is that incase they have an HH-1 problem or do they actually plan to roll straight over to an HH-2z production build ?
Interesting time for investor to watch and traders to gamble on short term plays.
GLA
Penguins, it’s not me asking for the info. Adrian the fool is running straw man arguments and predictions night and day.
You know UKOG wanted to drill a pilot to the rest of the Kim as part of the HH2 program. But you protestors and Surrey obstructed that.
Tony,
'There is no evidence of water in the oil. So there is no reported smoke from the heater stack, dirty flare or water/waste tankers.'
Bit desperate, why not wait for the RNS?
Have you seen the gauges for oil, water and gas? What relevance does no smoke (reported) from the heater stack have with regard to water production, or for that matter production of kill fluid etc during clean up following the workover. Perhaps you could enlighten us as to whether there's any hard evidence of no water production.
Like anyone else, including me, who is not on site and in the loop just looking doesn't tell you the detail of what's happening. I'm afraid too many reports of waste tankers as oil filled tankers has even taken the shine off that side of you and your chums reports.
Keep to the facts of what you see. The pump is running, the flare is flareing. Maybe they're running the heater stack using gas not diesel, maybe it's running without smoke, maybe they don't need to run it.
and how many times have subjective opinions about the quality of the flare (clean, strong etc) turned out to be meaningless.
'The flare is clean far earlier than expected for a workover.'
Even if the company said that I would be suspicious about the motive.
I see your mates on twitter are claiming that the full development will start now because the planning permission conditions have all been met. Presume that's going to be done for free?
As I've said before the purchase of the kit they're using for production suggests the current set up is the development for a long while, maybe for good, the finances also say that there's no cash for 4/5 more wells plus the facilities at HH. They also have the problem of where to place these wells within these reservoirs that frankly they seem to know too little about, and unfortunately to understand more needs more wells that may be as successful as HH-2z. They didn't even bother to drill and log (let alone core) the Kimmeridge when HH-2 pilot was being drilled.
Don’t fall for the fools spin. The flare is clean far earlier than expected for a workover.
There is no evidence of water in the oil. So there is no reported smoke from the heater stack, dirty flare or water/waste tankers.
The fool would be broadcasting far and loud if there were. Trust me.
He didn’t camp outside the gates all day, either.
I personally think it needs a few more days to see what’s what.
Kit left site earlier this week. Flare has been seen on the stack. A tanker left yesterday (may have been carrying oil from stock tank).
They must have some details now on HH1 and the work-over. That RNS is due today or on Monday at the latest.
Is quiet Steve going to hurt shareholders again?
