Col Ecu Ecop Oxy AmerNeed 2xOBA27 Nov 2018 22:39
No doubt the exit route for Col Oil into Ecu is the key Driver here OXY Ecopetrol GTE AMER , we own it, the OBA and stamp authority on it far more when we secure control of the pipeline maint'ce in Ecu. See article which Applies to Ecop & OXY, pipeline options and security - OBA limits when you add - PUT 9/ 12 /( Mecaya PUT 8 & GTE vertical and to the West = 50kbopd, Terecay tacaco +1m acres would need a second pipeline - into Ecu at least 50kbopd would dilute the supply risk and handle capacity. Amer Couldn't say this in a news RH blackout, Peeps thinks usis stupid. Not now - Quote Feb 18 article - IMPO believe Ecop will talk to Amer about Put 13 - which sits directly below Terecay and would be needed for a second pipeline. Quote Colombia’s Oil Industry Faces 3 Big Problems, Feb 18, Colombia’s beleaguered oil patch remains under considerable pressure. Aside from falling investment and a lack of proven reserves that has led to fears that it only can support another five years of production at current rates, it continues to experience considerable disruptions and outages. That includes the recent bombing of the all-important Caño Limón pipeline, which connects the Caño Limón oil field operated by Ecopetrol and produces around 50,000 barrels daily to the Caribbean port of Coveñas. In early February 2018 another bomb destroyed a stretch of the pipeline, extending an already month-long stoppage caused by earlier attacks. This has taken 210,000 barrels daily of transportation capacity offline, impacting Colombia’s already declining production. It’s difficult to determine when Ecopetrol will be able to open the spigots and recommence pumping at those oilfields. It will have a sharp impact on its 2018 performance because the three oilfields combined are responsible for around 212,000 barrels of daily oil production, which amounts roughly 30 percent of Ecopetrol’s total daily output. This doesn’t bode well for the company, especially as it battles a range of preexisting issues like dwindling reserves and oil output. This latest development, along with oil’s recent weakness, caused Ecopetrol’s stock to fall by 8 percent over the last week. END We both need each other Ecop & Amer - mission critical projects. With OXY behind us - the BB;s need to get used to that,not RH dominated shorters BB. FFS More +ves to come. Think Indico using monster drill, 350ft per day add 4 days for casing, rig 31st Oct, spud 3rd Nov, we should hit TD next week, RNS 5th Dec on depth news, output news add 3 weeks just before the year end IMO DYOR GLA HNY. I could be very wrong, but IF Indico is UP DIP shallower add ONGC +AMER have had +6mths to get the location of the drill correct - under the darkness of GREY RNS's. News soon. Fingers crossed.
