At the moment in time, gas is providing most (48.36%) of our energy, wind is only 1.17% and solar is 16.62%.
Without gas we would would be really screwed ... even coal (1.67%) is providing more energy than wind right now.

Sorry ! $22 million not £22 million

A few people on this board seem to think that, because there was an increase in free cash flow of £22 million in August, that it will be about the same for every month from now on (assuming PoO stays the same).
But the off-load is not every month but every 1 1/2 months so free cash flow will probably be nearer to $13.5 million per month average.
N.B. There is no off-load this month ( September ) so free cash flow could be negative.

Interesting article on Shetland Isles on how much they depend on Oil but it looks like Nicola is trying to replace Oil with Turbines.
These turbines will be 509 feet tall ... try to imagine a tower that is 15 times as tall as your average house .. boggles the mind.

mswartz you quote "Another reason to get Sea Lion started."
What on earth does that have to do with Sea Lion ... it's one hell of a long way to run a pipeline from Falklands to UK.

Those idiots at XR (Extinction Rebellion) want to close down all Oil & Gas production completely.
At this moment (27/08/2021) , natural gas is providing about 3 times more electricity than Wind and Solar combined.

You say "Access to ASEAN/RCEP is just the other side of Cape Horn"
What map are YOU looking at ... Australia is 7000 miles just the other side of Cape Horn and Japan is about 11000 miles.

Why on earth would the Royal Navy be interested in the Falklands ..... there's nothing down there. Portsmouth is closer to the Far East than the Falklands are.

I THINK HBR are THINKing of restarting the project of THINKing of whether they THINK that Sea Lion FID is worth THINKing about.
What do you others THINK ?

Re. "Greta and the Giants by Zoe Tucker, a story inspired by Greta Thunberg."
I have a confession to make.
When I started this thread, I hadn't really investigated what the book was about .. I just assumed, after seeing Greta's name, that it was about fossil fuels and the Giants were BP, Shell etc.
It turns out that it is about destruction of the forests by mythical giants. But the way that Brazil is destroying the Amazon rain forest or Indonesia is clearing all it's trees is definitely not mythical ... it's scandalous.
Seeing an Orangutan trying to protect his tree from being knocked down by a giant bulldozer was one of the saddest things I've seen for a long time.

Sorry to have misled about the book.

Kate and Jill Biden visited a school in Cornwall today.
"They were told that the children were reading Greta and the Giants by Zoe Tucker, a story inspired by Greta Thunberg."
Looks like the school is trying to brainwash kids against fossil fuels, hoping that they will then tell their parents ... the sooner RKH get the oil out of the ground at SeaLion the better.

I meant PoO going up to $80.

cyan2 you say :-
"A tax holiday or $5 off the royalty would make SL competitive imo."
Then if/when PoO goes up to $70, then Sl will become even MORE competitive regardless of what FIG decide to do.

Even Biden is ignoring it.

Hi Surfit
Thanks for the explanation.
It was the "Solan was a master stroke." bit that I didn't understand ,,, I forgot that they got rid of it to PMO originally ... but they are now stuck with again, having taken over PMO ... or have they managed to dump it again ?

Hi Surfit
You say "I do think that HBR have demonstrated in the past patience and astute/tough business policy: Solan was a master stroke."
Could you explain that please ?
