We are all aware that the RNS said “EXPECTS” and the possible implications of that so no need to shout.
Perhaps worth reposting the final part of the 1st August RNS just to remind ourselves:
“ Charles Santos, Executive Chairman of Aminex commented:
"We are approaching exciting times for Aminex. The seismic acquisition programme is close to producing results over the core area of the Ntorya gas-field with the delineation of the final location for the CH-1 well. We are pleased that the target spud date for the well remains on track for November 2022. Moreover, the 3D seismic data will refine and hopefully confirm the exploitable gas resources of the Ntorya gas-field in which APT's revised mapping and internal management estimates currently suggest a risked prospective gas in place ("GIIP") of 3,024 Bcf (gross basis, mean case) within multiple reservoir sand lobes and a prospective risked recoverable gas resource of 1,990 Bcf (gross basis, mean case)."
I am hoping that 3D seismic will lead to an increase in the figures mentioned above regarding the resource.
We can also assume APT are very confident in this being successful as they have decided to acquire SCIR’s 25% share which Wentworth wanted to acquire. Wentworth are involved in the only current gas production in Tanzania in an adjacent area so I was very encouraged that they wanted to be involved.
