“ Uganda
Following the announcement on 23 April 2020 that Tullow had agreed the sale of its assets in Uganda to Total for $500 million in cash on completion, $75 million in cash following FID, plus post first oil contingent payments, the transaction is progressing as planned with completion expected before the year-end.”
So transaction (almost) complete ahead of schedule... will this bring the below forward ?? Very early Q1 2021 ?
“ South America
In Suriname, the Goliathberg-Voltzberg North well in Block 47 is now planned to be drilled in the first quarter of 2021, testing dual targets in the Cretaceous turbidite play in approximately 1,900 metres of water. The well will be drilled by the Stena Forth drillship.”
Timescale set in relation to completion sale of Ugandan asset ?
“ Data reprocessing and evaluation continues in Guyana to support future drilling activity. In Peru, Tullow has been awarded blocks Z67 and Z68 in the Trujillo basin, targeting a completely new petroleum system and new plays.”
“ In Namibia, Tullow is awaiting the outcome of the Venus-1 well which is expected to be drilled by Total in the fourth quarter of 2020 on a block to the south of Tullow's PEL-90 acreage before deciding next steps.”
Lots to muse over & all reasons why there’s no reason given the debt is manageable this could hit 40p sooner than we think.
Time will tell.
