Tincan asks "Can I ask , is Noble with the great white drill rig , same as the outfit that drilled in the Falklands before?"

No, Noble Energy was not Noble Drilling, and they didn't use a Noble Drilling rig either. Eirik Raude was owned by Transocean. And Noble

Energy is long gone and acquired by Chevron.

Santos says; "p.s Alma- sorry to be a pedant (as you are always right) but it was Humpty Dumpty not Alice who said ' When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean- neither more nor less'."

@Santos, I simply referenced the phrase from a pair of books written by Lewis Carroll, which collectively are known as Alice in Wonderland books. Humpty Dumpty appears in the second book and says it, but I never put the words in Alice's mouth. Anyway I profoundly apologise for offending your sensibilities on the matter and I will spend 4 hours in detention on Saturday morning as retribution, followed by a proper disciplinary caning by the Head Girl.

I see there has been a late surge of nominations for members of the Assembly. In Stanley it’s gone from 7 to 15, with 5 incumbents.

You can see them all here and download their manifestos to read if you have trouble getting to sleep tonight. I have, so I can assure you about that!

None of the candidates express any opposition to a hydrocarbon industry but many want a sovereign wealth fund to be created from the taxation, and the environment to be respected. Several of them don’t even mention hydrocarbons as an issue as they pursue their own local hobby horse.

So, it seems there is no opposition to Navitas taking a Final Investment Decision among those seeking election. The election will have no political impact.

“When I use a word... it means just what I choose it to mean”

So said Alice in Wonderland, and perhaps HMG too….

Delta9 : "had to laugh at the budget and 3p per mile tax on electric cars she announced"

Can you imagine sending in a monthly mileage report to HMRC? It's a golden opportunity to invent an app that you plug into your diagnostics port to wind the clock back, like in the old days with an electric drill and a flex!

Happy asks: "Would it be welcome if an Israeli company were emblazoned across the front pages as helping the Falklands assert sovereignty over the Malvinas (in Argentine parlance) when Milei was investing so much political capital developing relations with Israel."

"Falklands" asserts no sovereignty, it's a British Overseas Territory where King Charles III asserts sovereignty through appointing a Governor. Its right to exist is affirmed by UN and by popular referendum. Embassies in Jerusalem are as relevant as Roman armies at Hadrian's Wall.

President Donald Trump has pardoned two turkeys ahead of Thursday's Thanksgiving holiday, one called Happy and the other called Buzz

Who is the biggest idiot?

1. Borgo for forecasting a date

2. Chess gambler for believing it

3. Happy for pretending he's not Garbled

Option A. If there was a team who went down from BZZ on the "Night flight to Venus" Airbridge, then by tomorrow even the cleaners at Shorty's Diner will know and it will leak like a sieve and the SP will reflect it. That's a "Buy" signal.

Option B. If that team went by BA to Rio and on to Santiago, Punta Arenas and MPA arriving Saturday, it will still leak like a sieve, but it's too late to affect the SP and there's a Monday gap up. Then it's too late!

The old mantra of "You don't want to be out over the weekend" comes into play for FOMO.

"I stayed at the RAF club this week and it was most agreeable."

Are you confusing it with the RAC Club in Pall Pall.

Enjoy your next flight on an Air Tanker voyager full of squaddies.🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛

LAN Airlines fly into Mount Pleasant and back to Chile every Saturday, it's a more civilised way to go.

Call +500 21355 and ask reception to put you through Mr Moody's room.

If they say "Just a moment please, " hang up, because you know where he is.

They might get his name correct, it's Professor Alexander Kemp !

So, you don't know the difference between an incorporated company and an unincorporated partnership?

If Happy Investor, (aka “All IMHO DYOR”) wants to look informed and knowledgeable about corporate decision making, to put us all right, he might well do his own research about his target, before posting.

For example, in discussing Navitas he says:

1. “I think their shareholders would much rather they made the right decision”

2. “I'm saying their shareholders will only thank them for making whatever the right decision is for THEIR company.”

3. “Their fiduciary duty is only to their own shareholders.”

For his information, Navitas Petroleum LP is not a company with any shareholders or shares. It is an Israeli limited partnership.

DYOR, as they say.............

Happy, putting "All IMHO DYOR" into every post you make means one of two things

1. You don't want to be sued for falsehood.

2. You have no faith in the statements you make.

Whenever I see that kind of disclaimer , I think the poster is not 100% genuine.

A bit of research suggests the following:

If historical convention is followed, the newly elected members of the Legislative Assembly, during their first week as MLAs, will visit Government House, making their oaths and affirmations to the Governor.

For the December 2025 election, the first sitting of the new Assembly is expected in January 2026, aligning with past practice and the monthly meeting cycle. Exact dates will be confirmed by the Clerk of the Assembly once the Governor issues the convening notice.

So if folks are waiting for a fully functioning Government Legislative Assembly before Navitas announces FID, that doesn’t fit with today’s announced timetable of “before year end”

You just have to be thankful that Gretna Thumb-Berg didn't attend.

Pedant alert!!

Navitas Petroleum LP, the listed entity on TASE, is not a company, it has no issued shares and no shareholders.

It is a limited partnership, with partners who hold tradeable participation units which are 90% loans and 10% capital.

I am hoping its next weekend so I can blow the Winter Fuel Allowance on RKH shares 😂
