Just my thoughts as we may have to be patient for a period.
If you’re talking about a farm-in with someone like Repsol for example, it’s not a quick process it usually takes a good few months end to end.
Once the data room opens, they’ll typically spend a couple of months (say 6–12 weeks) going through everything properly. seismic, wells, models, all that while also having a few back-and-forths with the team to clarify things.
If they like what they see, they’ll put in a non-binding offer not long after that. Then you’re into negotiations, which can take another month or two sorting out things like equity, who pays for what, operatorship, etc. After that, there’s the legal side and internal approvals, which can drag on a bit as well.
All in, if things move well you might get it done in 4–5 months, but realistically it’s more like 6–9 months, sometimes longer if it gets complicated.
