Indonesia has progressed quickly. Why??? The Iran war has seen an uptake in super majors clambering all over Sth East Asia. So a shrewd move to prioritise getting Indonesia signatures inked quickly to protect UPL interests. It’s lucky in a way that we were already well progressed over there.
Those that doubt SK334 are wrong. It’s been RNS’d previously we have exclusivity, so no one else is in the room, therefore no need to prioritise over acquiring other blocks at this moment in time. It is also linked to Block L underground, which is bound to be part of the negotiations. UPL have political support too, Energy Minister, The Premier, etc..
Re Brunei, we’ve submitted our bid vs others and await the outcome of the tender round which annoyingly hasn’t been announced yet, but this timeline isn’t in UPL’s control.
Should see 3 x PSCs this year, plus Mustang.
You omit the most important and “consistent” indicator Derek…. Directors have consistently piled in, and at a premium. Why is this ?????
