Gordon Stein, CFO of CleanTech Lithium, explains why CTL acquired the 23 Laguna Verde licenses. Watch the video here.
Correction ..possible apology too !! The “Aurora” ship due on the 13th June is V2GS9 and is a smallish container ship NOT a P&O Cruise Liner …so there you have it. Again Vessel Finder site will confirm details and current location !!Sorry folks !
How many will remember this beauty when she visited the Building Dock a few months ago ? Well “Vessel Finder “ site shows her passing up the Irish Sea this eve past the Isle of a Man and Belfast “ For orders” which means Russia .As mentioned here before she has travelled several times to and from Sabetta in N.Russia to France and on the last voyage to Spain from where she is now sailing .Interesting, as her sister ships (all U.S.A.owned ?) also seem busy on similar trades ..hopefully we were well paid at the time !!
Lottie ..you deserve top spot and a prize for your most instructive and supportive report .I know from others (with whom I am in contact) that you are a genuine and experienced Investor, not in any way a mere Ramper for your own self.
Your posts are well worth the read and after my own intended visit to Belfast next month I only wish /hope that I can emulate and add more positive news to your timely missive bearing in mind the current pool of gloom ,negativity and general antagonism ( not always warranted!!) that persists.
Stokey -correct again ..she is with us for a week to complete repairs to upper bow doors ..not an issue for us !! Just more professional work from an expanding go-ahead customer !!
Amazing that the Queen Vic fits nicely into our smaller dock !! Now need two to fit in the Building Dock ..now that would be a photo shot !
“In OUR main building Dock” -typo correction —There remains a very active trade in oil and gas via sea between Russia and Europe …and one or two arrival over here too !!.Interesting that the Eduard Toll travelled this time via the West coast of Ireland and not through the English Channel as usual ?!!
Remember this interesting beast of a LNG Tanker built in 2017 and American owned + recently in or main building Dock .
Well, according to Vessel Finder she has been merrily travelling to and from Zebrugge and Montoir ( France ) to Sabetta in N. Russia still plying the Gas trade .She is just about to dock back in France after her third voyage —difficult to track as the transponder goes off beyond N. Norway. But Hey Ho, the trades with France continue..probably a matter of contract ?!!!
Consuela ..am still very much here,Matey, avoiding most of the utter clap trap/nonsense on this Board excepting many old timers in particular Lottie ,Stokey, TTNY, Nobby and a few others ( apologies for not being inclusive ) .This is a 5 year project that has been beset by Covid …Opponents ,Bureaucracy and some Gov.inaction —-still 2 years to go but lots to be positive about including the continued present of significant II’s ,a foundation fabrication presence in East Scotland ,potential for Appledore new Builds ,Navantia and Team Resolute in Belfast and even good old Arnish deserves a mention .They are fabricating their backsides off for Methil ..As Lottie and TTNY will say …”Just stay calm and invested “ You will not regret it …in the long term unless Mr P blows us all up beforehand ??
So much utter pure drivel and tosh today !! As Lottie rightly posts “ this is just another storm in a tea cup “ and the Tweet has been responded to so as to clarify and emphasise that H&W do not and have never claimed exclusivity to RNLI repair work .I am informed that RNLI are happy with this.
More seriously the II’s now hold more than 60% of the voting rights here and are fully on board after recent Investor Events and the full take up of the Placement .
This Company IS “going places with JW and AR”….The Company is not going to fail and all of us (and that includes most of the II’s ) will soon start to recover losses…losses being the cause of such emotive postings of late .
Doomongers….please know and note that Methil is poised .It’s a huge yard..all the steel has been delivered,OK it needs treating for oxidisation after incorrect storage in Indonesia apparently ,but as soon as this is sorted ( not at our expense ) real fabrication starts …and the yard is ready and looking in great refurbished state thanks to JW ,William Duff and his wonderful highly experienced team up there. .Belfast is going to be busy busy in December and vibrant/exciting news is awaited ..so there we are ..do have a great POSITIVE THOUGHT weekend and be assured that the Board do value the small investor in the long term just as much as the big boys !! ..Lottie is the poster to read .He or she often says it spot on !!!!
48p without the Licence …rather more now it’s in the bag with so much to look forward to in the jolly old pipeline ……..am surprised that no one has picked up the docking of the good ship MV Donald at Methil ..it has been moored there for a few days now …..reports and photo shots no doubt soon !!
Stokey.. from own sources yesterday but now readily available on Social Media and NI Ferry Site . As you say, the Belfast Harbour Site info only goes to 18th September !!
European Causeway is shown to be coming for another oil change on 23rd September... but is it one of the three beauties scheduled to be keeping us frantically busy in Q4 ?!!!!
We do know, Ban, and your suspicions may well be founded .. the sooner that we can move on to new horizons, the better and to my best knowledge those horizons are easily achievable as long as the Bod receives fair and respectful support !!!!
Like the analogy,Chris .. Saipem is working well though the new crane remains to be named !
There’s every good chance of further follow on contracts to keep the other yards busy
Fingers crossed for another Azura soon .. Great photo opportunity for two beauties in the BD and say a Stena E flexer in the other .. dream on maybe ???
Match nearly over .. great result but a bit boring at end
Like many of us small players Spuddy is probably losing a packet full on paper and is rightfully miffed but with no control over the market and N.I. political shenanigans or the big players we would probably have lost all in the hole in the ground at IM well before now had Woody & Co not arrived with Adrian .
IM still has great potential as the reputation of Hydrogen has become enhanced but we have been badly wrong footed by the powers that be and others
Aim is not for the feint hearted.. but as many have said here any announcement of a humdinger of a contract whether an extension of Saipem or a series of Cruisers then we may be out of the J Woods ! Just give ‘em time folks !
And ....... should amazingly IM eventually come good then .. whoosh.. forget about Barrow ,Triumph and Woodburn
Spud, dear friend from the past ..my personal understanding about Gresham (not taken from the BOD ) is that Gresham wanted a seat at the table which placed them in conflict with other II’s at the time.Those II’s are still supporting us..
As regards the supposed pitiful pitch at the Saipem placement it was absolutely vital that the funds were raised on the day as to otherwise lose Saipem would have been....... well reference to those items in the lounge which you close at night comes to mind !
Very well said,Stokey. Am not quite understanding dear old Spud and his attitude at present . He has been a driving force with us PI’s for many years with many valued posts over a long period .
He even had a hand in a video of IM some time back and I have valued many past chats with him BUT
Despite high initial finance costs H&W remains a snip at £5m +..We are not there yet but 2 years on progress has been made
Methil and Saipem may well not be our own self generated contracts but with Sturgeons’ lot having invested over £50m in the site and JW being astute enough to pick it and Hebrides up for £800k at the very cusp of UK sourced wind farm work being finally supported, he must be highly praised for that IMHO.
Not so sure about Appledore /Hebrides but Remember please that JW was brought in to sort IM out and when that has gone AWOL outside his commercial and personal control he and AR have done us proud to keep the ship afloat
Do Come back on board,Spud ... some rough weeks ahead (despite Azura now at the quayside) as we have plenty to play for .. honest !!!!
