Fascinating and a bit mind boggling actually.

Come on, chaps. All of this talk is complete hypothesis, and none of it is going to have any bearing on the outcome of a war that appears on the face of it to be going on in Ukraine, and none of it is actually relevant to HUR. Get your zimmers and get out for a walk. Take in some fresh air. Be with nature. Get out of those busy hypothesising minds... and give the rest of us a well-earned break!

Haggis, Chap. Take a breather. Have a think about what you are saying on here. At best it’s misleading. What you’re posting on here are just thoughts inside of your head - wishful thoughts - as though they are reality, and they’re just not. You’re not on your own with this. I, for one, having been invested here for some considerable time, with very little to sing about, have such thoughts, but as there is no basis of fact to them, I choose not to post them.

Daily meditation I have found helps me to be able to filter out what is the truth from the fantasy. AIMHO. GLA.

Come on, Haggis. Even by your standards, “guaranteed” is. at the very least, fanciful. I don’t even think the BOD’s of the Company would even give that level of assurance.

Just my belief that getting the 3D seismic work done at the cost of a neighbouring interest and not our own seems to me like commercially a really poor and short-sighted decision, meaning that we don’t own the data, we have no control over how the data is produced, and most importantly, how it is interpreted. Why on earth would you do that?

LB I don’t think the British Government will allow EVR to be listed on the Russian or any other stock exchange. Afterall, wasn’t it the British Government that was making the (albeit baseless) claims that EVR was supplying steel to build Russian tanks, which is how we ended up where we are? Surely it will want to keep EVR, and crucially, its capital, under British jurisdiction until Putin has been put down, and the WEF has replaced him with a Zelensky’esque plastic puppet.

Phoebus, PANR’s Texas project was a complete f***-up, no question, and it caught me well and truly with my pants down. Sort of got myself invested in Alaska North Slope therefore by default. But then the same could be said about my investment in ECO also!

PANR, perhaps, is as good an opportunity as ECO, maybe better in that it has 100% working interest onshore North Slope of Alaska. I’m bullish and a long suffering holder in both. SP here is at risk of drifting down though, in the absence of good news. That’s not me deramping btw. That’s just experience of what happens after a sizeable dilution and no news following it up, to kickstart some momentum up its a*se.

Whatever, Haggis.

I agree commercia I’ve been an LTH in this dog for such a long time. And this placing looks just like the rest of the deals in this company... stitched up like a
Kipper. Came tantalisingly close to getting to my exit point here last week. Yet again, the door gets slammed shut yet again. Carrot dangled. Yet again. FFS.

Smallfishbigpond With the price of Brent as it is, coupled with the fact the EU and the Uk have a renewed focus on securing hydrocarbon production closer to home, that would seem to present CNOOC with the golden opportunity to offload an ageing asset at a premium value. Pretty damned shrewd if you ask me.

Darientaylor for thickoes like me that don’t get the joke, please can you break what you have just said into bite sized pieces and explain the punchline.

“Frostbite in as little as 10 minutes”... flipping ‘eck have we got some more oil for t’fire?

FORD707 There are a lot of ifs, buts and maybes with this puppy at this stage. I wonder whether even Jay and Bob are even certain where we are going to end up with PANR 12 months or longer from now.

Selfish is right, that if the Council’s decision is to refuse the application and its grounds for doing so are later found to be erroneous from a planning or legal perspective, then the Secretary of State can order costs against the Council (not the Counsellors personally) for the costs incurred by the applicant as a direct consequence of the erroneous decision. The costs awarded will be enough to make the Council’s eyes water, but it will never be a 100% cost recovery for the applicant (Persimmon’s point 2 refers).

By virtue of that, the Council have to be mindful, Persimmon, that their political leanings in jurisdictions such as this, where a development such as this goes against the grain of local political opinion (Nimbyism, ruralism, gentrification issues most probably) doesn’t cloud the decision, because that is not a material planning consideration (Persimmon’s point 1 below refers)

So far as Persimmon’s points 3 and 4 are concerned, even if nothing has materially changed in the application since the original planning decision was made, if the Local Planning Authority deems that material information has come to light since that original planning decision was made, that is sufficient to change the outcome of a decision, then it does mean that the resultant voting could be different. That information could be subsequent legal advice from the LPA’s legal counsel, further planning advice from the planning officer, or subsequent material information being forthcoming from a key stakeholder, for example.
So far as Persimmon’s point 5 is concerned, this is correct. The Committee will be of course aware of those factors, but the application must be determined in accordance with Town and Country Planning Act and relevant Central Government Planning Policy Guidance.

Barking it’s not unusual for applications like this, deemed to be politically sensitive to get refused or sometimes not determined by the Local Planning Authority, knowing that the applicant will appeal to the Secretary of State thereafter. Especially in these backwater planning authority areas where not a lot happens and where the political priority is more about whether Mrs Miggins’ cat got rescued from the village green oak tree, than about jobs, revenues And energy security issues.

Correct, Feeks. The buck stops with the Councillors. The planning officer acts merely as advisor to the Council specifically relating to the application on the context to local, regional and national planning policy and guidance.

BeingTheBanker... 100%. The great British public has been locked in mass hypnosis for decades. OFCOM is the party responsible for censorship of British mainstream media “information” to ensure that everything that is published is of the same required “truth”. I remember when Andy Kershaw wrote a piece in ‘the Independent’ regarding the devastating impact on Iraqi babies born in Basra years after the use of non-depleted uranium (tank-buster) shells by British and American forces in the first Iraq War. I sobbed reading that, and yet it was probably the last time that I ever came to read something that I sensed had an element of truth to it in the British press.

I think every LUFC fan would be voting Boris if CFC got crushed by this. No love lost there.

But CFC hitting the wall? That won’t happen, will it? Surely the British Govt knows that it would risk losing massive impetus behind its [mis]information campaign around Ukraine, if it forced CFC out of the football league. Other than Leeds and maybe Spurs fans, this would be a hugely unpopular move. The Govt knows the importance that soccer plays in providing the British people with the single biggest collective escape from reality that it has. Psychologically, it would be like suddenly jolting someone out of a hypnotic state, and throwing them into a really depressing dose of reality... politically, a massive risk.

In this world of real time [mis/dis] information that we live today, I see how easy is has become for even a small group like on this BB, ending up having a scrap about stuff like Ukraine and Covid and and and... all because the reality is that none of us really know what the reality is. None of us! Because we are being played. We are spoonfed “information” that probably constitutes someone or something’s convenient truth, to fulfil a deeper agenda, and that we are emotionally used and abused (from all sides) to generate a desired response. But in every instance the universal response is one of fear. And all I have to do is take a look at the activity on this BB today, to see what the result is. And it is happening everywhere. It is dividing (and conquering) those that even appear to have a commonality in life, in this case, the success for HUR going forward.

Please, can I respectfully ask that we all take a moment to reflect on the purpose of the posts on here. How are some of the things that are being said here adding to the value of this BB? How can we all make an effort to improve the value of the posts on here in service and support to our fellow HUR holders? Can we find it in ourselves to keep the content supportive, informative, in integrity, and without judgement, and the context HUR-focussed?

There are some great people on this BB who have, over the years, devoted their time and energy to helping people like me understand what is going on with HUR, which has helped me in making investment decisions a whole lot easier, and I am eternally grateful for that. Please let’s all aspire to be one of those for the future investors of HUR.

With love, blessings and the very best of luck to all.
