JW not happy with building a business, he wants an Empire LOL
This will go past 50 in no time , the director / family buys will soon double up.
Ml is like eu funding , it will come eventually,
Boris will be keen to get the UK working flat out ,
If we could get funding as well with h&w in play now 1p on the horizon
Yep pacman, google gave me the same definition ;))
Looking good today
Really nice price action recently, and volumes are creeping up as well.
I was disappointed - though not surprised - to learn about further delays regarding IM funding, but it looks like the market likes the H&W part of the business very much.
Nice article droderick :-)
Very interesting interview by Arun on Bloomberg. I like the shape this is taking.
Britain May Get First Floating Gas Store to Ease Reserve Crunch
2020-05-05 08:31:09.51 GMT
By Anna Shiryaevskaya
(Bloomberg) -- Infrastructure company Infrastrata Plc is
getting closer to order a giant ship that can both store and
regasify liquefied natural gas for a U.K. market lacking such
facilities.
The firm will decide on a floating storage and
regasification unit in northwest England in the next few months,
the company’s Chief Financial Officer Arun Raman said in an
interview. A consortium with two or three other companies,
potentially including independent oil trader Vitol SA, will be
formed this year, he said.
Just like in the oil market, the unprecedented glut of
natural gas has boosted demand for capacity to hold on to the
commodity for longer. Traders can’t store the fuel in tankers at
sea for long akin to oil traders because some of it evaporates
or gets used to propel the vessels.
That means greater demand for tanks onshore or in FSRUs.
The pandemic sinking consumption further has exacerbated the
need to store the fuel in anticipation of higher prices in the
future.
“Given what we are seeing in the LNG markets today, there
is clearly a need for LNG storage,” Raman said. “There is no
regasification capacity in the U.K. or in Europe at the moment.
Everyone is operating at over 100% capacity.”
At terminals across Europe, free capacity is running low
because not enough fuel is sent into the grids. That has created
a backlog of vessels that are waiting several days to unload the
fuel. Other European nations that are considering the FSRU
route, also as a way to diversify their supply sources, include
Germany and Greece.
Infrastrata’s project, which doesn’t yet have a definite
timetable for commissioning, would help accommodate a further
new supply coming from the Middle East and Africa in 2023-24,
Raman said.
Natural Gas Storage Tanks Are Filling Up Fast Across Europe
Infrastrata already has a relationship with Vitol after the
trader bought long-term capacity at its natural gas storage
project in Northern Ireland that will start in a couple of
years. Vitol declined to comment.
The company is also holding discussions with other partners
for the project at Barrow-in-Furness, which will have a capacity
of 5.5 million tons per year. They include another trading
house, a utility and an oil major, Raman said, adding that
Korean companies with trading arms have also showed interest.
“We have seen a lot of interest from trading houses who are
starting to bulk up on their LNG contracts,” he said.
I'm taking huge encouragement from these family buys.
Personally I don't like giving share tips to any friends. I'll take a punt with my own money but won't be responsible for theirs.
I definitely don't give share tips to family for the same reason plus I'm a lot closer to them.
Taking it a stage further, I under no circumstances would give a tip to anyone about investing in a company I was linked to as if it did go boobies up, I would feel even more responsible for their losses.
This is just me though.
To me though, seeing management AND family members investing, is a massive signal of positivity.
The management at H&W certainly are convinced things are going to be very good, And who is closest to the action, this is about as close to the horses mouth we are going to get.
This must be sending a really positive message to potential and current investors. If this was followed up by the ML could really take off.
More buying from the management.
Keep it up guys. :)
“a division or contrast between two things that are or are represented as being opposed or entirely different.”
For people that didn’t know what that means, and Spud. I knew of course...... cough!
That’s my education done for today. GLA
I know, a total dichotomy. What a fun ride we have ahead!
Imagine a start up that's 159 years old ;)))
Not a bad storyline. Now for the contracts to start coming. The light at the end of the tunnel is probably not an oncoming train!
Big plans for employment, no wonder the job advert is out for an HR Director.

Agree, very nice info. Perhaps the billionaire owner might fancy bidding 10p a share for Infa!
Best wishes all. Stay safe.
The BBC Northern Ireland news item on Kilroot power station was good to read this morning. It announces that Kilroot power station is converting from coal fired to gas powered after being awarded a new energy contract.
This is great from a local employment perspective but could there also be benefits in some way for Infa ? Kilroot will now obviously be a major gas consumer with a responsibility for supplying the electricity network and it's also located less than 10 miles down the same coastline as Islandmagee.
Just thinking out loud (and in text) here.

Your not the only one, I have many bodies buried myself..ifl..prox...ctag to name a few
It’s a handy function......maybe they should rename ‘bury your head in the sand’
Wow, I wish I had that facility on my pf.
So fed up of being reminded of past mistakes, going back years, every time I log on.
Companies that went down the pan years ago but still remain as "suspended" or "delisting" on the list.
Companies like Max Petroleum and Oxus Gold and a few more that went boobies skyward long ago.
Those and the ones that are now worth less that the dealin costs. lol
Anyhoo, noted, cheers.
Si
I picked up the courage to click un-hide in my pf for infa, 2m @-61%!
Pressed ‘hide’ and logged off

Looking like a nice Golden Cross yesterday, with a rising 50 day MA crossing up over the 200 day MA.
Last few times it's done this over the past year we've had a nice rally subsequently.

Let's hope all those "sticky hands" hold for a greater returns and we do the same.
GL, Si. :)
(Anti-TA hat on)
Ffs , it does say son in the rns :)))))
Every little helps!
Spud, either you need new glasses, or you need to put the glass down...

A relation of Judith, son perhaps?
Speedy,
I try to speak as I find. I don't believe that ramping my own book is going to make a difference and I have explained before that I consider it reasonable to use places such as this to vent my frustration with the board, rather than with individual posters and investors.
I am undecided as to whether I agree with Spud that INFA is all about H&W in the medium term; certainly I remain frustrated at the balls-up that IslandMagee became and I remain equally hopeful that this will play out as I originally anticipated, which was the reason for my investment in the first place.
I believe my postings about H&W to have been, on balance, broadly neutral, given that I have repeatedly acknowledged the potential political angle of the acquisition.
