This is a great learning process and thanks to all in 'the know' who are keen to share knowledge. No thanks to those who are plainly in 'the know' and those who aren't but profess to be, who are clearly manipulating those of us who are still learning.
I take on board completely that we are in new territory and with it comes an element of R&D. Getting from A to B in a straight line would be great, but it's not always the case and as long as we get there in the end, it'll be good enough for me.
The one thing I take from the recent sharing of information is that there is little difference in value, in this case, between bopd and bopd equivalent, with the latter including NGL/condensate/gas fractions, with some elements only discounted by small percentages when sold into TAPS. This puts a wholly different slant on flow rates - it doesn't need to be pure oil, even if there is such a thing, at this stage in the process.
The BIGGEST comfort, to me, is that Alkaid is exploring only a very small proportion of the known assets in PANR acreages. Each horizon will, I'm sure, present its own challenges but no-one has said this business is without risk.
