Petro still in the election - no great surprise.
"The second well on the Tapir Block, the RCE-2, well was brought on stream slowly on May 23rd. The well initially produced clean oil at high rates but has developed a water cut. The well is currently being managed at reduced rates of 1000 BOPD (500 net)." - so production is suddenly only half of the projected rate - who expected that? - probably no-one after the previous RNS.
So that probably explains the drop at the end of last week - maybe a further drop to come.
And a big loss - was that drilling costs?
And while Q1 revenue looks to be a big jump up that is only when compared to Q1 2021. In reality Q4 revenue was $3,038,832 so the increase to $3,402,962 was nothing to get too excited about.
