This should be in 90s29 Jun 2026 08:19
The market was probably spooked by talk of a second FPSO and what it would mean for funding, but it's missing the bigger picture. Navitas are clearly very serious about establishing the NFB as their new centre for oil production long, long into the future.
RKH are riding Navitas's coattails but as the junior partner this was always going to be the way. However, a determined and ambitious operator like Navitas creates its own momentum.
If the market doesn't rerate RKH, a predator eventually will. As the months tick away and execution risks subside, Sea Lion becomes increasingly tantalising for investors and would-be predators alike.
Meanwhile, the easing of tensions in the ME while negative for oil prices in the short term is good for RKH because it reduces logistical friction and crucially dampens potential cost increases at the development stage.
I will top up on any further weakness below 70.
All IMHO DYOR
Happy
