As far as CEO's go, SS is pretty poor. Sure, there may have been a few bad news stories in the last 6 months, but as CEO he should man up and get on with things, PR is not just about shouting from the rooftops when times are good, it's about providing a calm voice when things go wrong. The HH2z well issue, Kimmeridge production concerns at HH, flow rates from HH1 Portland, Loxley planning, IoW, Turkey, etc. There is no reason why SS should not be front and centre at least twice per month as the face of the company. Its disappointing that he's such a quiet chap. Maybe the next CEO will be a little more front and centre, open and honest, just so long as its not someone like Lenigas.
Maybe SS will turn UKOG around, HH is not a game changer. Loxley could show some positives as could IoW, but its Turkey that provides the best opportunity for a significant uprate in company fortunes. They need cashflow badly. The MO must change from placings to raise cash, to oil production cashflow.
