Hi Lucky, this is usually for wells that are drilling an unproven area that also often don't have infrastructure etc readily available. We'll do better than what you've mentioned. Having said this, it's pointless looking to previous f/o's (including Dolphin who also get $$$ to drill) when the industry is in the doldrums. Look at our SP as evidence of how the market is valuing oilies. I stick by my estimate, which by the way would be fantastic for i3e. The value of 2 free carry drills, plus an additional £3-5m up-front is almost the same as our current Mcap i.e. it's worth 4p to our SP. This is why I'm going for 8-10p on f/o news, even if it's at the more conservative end for some (realistic for me). GLA
