Just to add, we now know we own a Rig, and 2 Boiler Suits!

Think the Hard Hats are "bring your own! lol

The first picture tweeted this morning looks about a month out of date, as you can see the cattle in top left hand corner looking on and asking the men there, "where's our nutritious scrub gone, guys?"

Along with the faux pas regarding the Drilling Crew status, it seemed to me a bit poor on the PR once again!

Glad to see they have put up a current pic of the Crane in place in the lay-down yard, loading trucks - more like it!

The long and the short of all this nonsense, is that if Legalwolf had made a phone call to Liberum, our Brokers, who did our last placing, on Friday morning, he would have got a definitive answer, if not over the phone directly, then by reply very shortly afterwards!

Think it was 2015 when it last did any drilling, before the legal disputes started with the Kenyan Government and Great Rift Drilling.

From Goggle

17 Jun 2019 — However Cluff Geothermal and its local partner, Great Rift Drilling, stopped work on March 2015 and declared a dispute, accusing GDC of Kenya of non-payment of outstanding Invoices and therefore Breach of Contract.

Case wasn't brought until 2017 and the Rig was only released in Feb this year, I think!

So no Crew hanging about over that timescale.

This is now sitting at the crunch point, only 3 weeks left in August, and appears the Rig Crew arrangements are the big item now waiting to be resolved, as all the other components are ready and waiting to be actioned, from what has been said in the recent interviews!

Perhaps they are trying to sign up Randy Donald to come and operate the right Rig this time! lol

Has the company secretly employed these 2 detectives to quietly do their news releases and project status updates?

Great work guys.

Noble have had to retract the "Mbelele Resource Increase" release on ASX dated 25/07/2023

Share price down nearly 6%

Rig Ship still docked in Hull

Cybertron

Please, please, please, just sit on your hands for a few days and wait for this to play out.

No amount of spouting the fact that this is "going to take off on Spud" will change a thing until the Board are ready.

Just have a wee breather!

In the short term, there is a fair chance that a few will jump on this in the final 2 hours today, as Monday may very well be a News day - 9.50p at close?

Epiroc

As far as a race with Noble is concerned, the Ship contracted to move Marriot's Rig from Hull to DeS is currently just leaving the Kiel Canal and heading up-river to Hamburg ETA 16.30 today. If Unloading or picking up Cargo, then it may be Monday 7th before it sails for Hull, so earliest it is likely to leave Hull is end of next week 11th August. So with direct route to DeS and then overland to site, this rig will not be drilling in September, in my opinion. The upside for Noble is that they have Marriot's resident crew ready to go, who will know their Rig inside out, so a quick set-up and Spud likely.

We, HE1, are talking September Spud, but need to confirm a competent Crew, and the likelihood is they will need time and trial runs to get up to speed with our Rig, unless they all have previous knowledge of the Epic we have! Would be very unlikely to get such a crew off the shelf, so to speak. For me this is the Critical area of planning we need to get spot on now!

Just hope we get some news on the Crew appointments next week to keep momentum going forward here.

@Dai

If they had bought that 2 years ago, they could have used a high pressure water lance and washed our way down to 1200 metres...

And when the water was done, filled the tank with Helium and off to Dar es Salem to sell it in the market, and then do it all over again! I fell a song coming on!

I have been waiting since the 10th of July when they posted the picture of OUR Rig with its £9.99 Banner/Flag bought from Amazon, draped over the side of the Truck, to be replaced by smart Vinyl Vehicle lettering and logo over the Doors, Cabin, Mast, and the rest of the Truck to send the message out that we do indeed own this Rig, and are ready to show it off to the Investing World in an upcoming Media roll-out.

But our staff don't seem to think like that, and Comms are not our forte, as we have learned over the last 2 years!

Come on guys, at least let us know you are still in business, lol!

Forgot the guy to stir the sugar!

Just to correct the some of the information Total Market Solutions are using, which is out of date, HE1 revoked some of the less interesting licence areas last year, and now have just under 3000 km2

I certainly did not suggest the Rig wouldn't be moving, as it can be packed up and relocated in a few days.

I was referring to the concrete wellhead/shaft that is being put in place, which if you look at the picture (which is probably better for you), as you obviously haven't learned to read yet, you will see that the structure they have shuttered is not just for a 2 week drill!

Get your facts straight before you spout off on here, laddie!

Blissful

The shuttering and depth of the Shaft where the drill will be centred on is pretty substantial, of such a mass that it won't move in a hurry! Like a Concrete Datum point on a major construction project - you can guarantee the position is fixed.

The slab is superficial, it is the shaft construction and detail which indicates a very permanent structure!

All imo

Good luck all!

I can hear Trek Madone coming - ffffiiivvveee pounds when the Iso containers roll up\1

Seriously though, that Wellhead looks as if it is being prepared as a production ready unit!

Latorre

Not so sure about mixing the concrete in a plastic tub with a wooden stick though! lol
