Good morning Shaa,
opened down .025 but no trades ????

Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen,
An interesting day by any standards,
What have we learned today,
there are a few things we have possibly learned today.
Presumably AM would have had to consult the senior lenders before doing the placement so,
he either asked them for more cash and they refused or,
he spoke to them and chose to do it by way of a placement,
why?,
we know from the list of potential news provided by Tiburn and Hfb that he has plenty of good news to impart but has chosen ,
not to,
we also know from Tedoboys excellent calculations it is massively in our favour to acquire CUDA.
So why has he chosen to do it in the most public and painful way ?.
He may not care about PI's opinions or Sp, but ultimately they will need to be addressed if he's to get COPL where he
the ( driven man ) wants to be .
Could it be that knowing we are currently the only interested party but the recievers threatening sales agents , and a lot of time being wasted trying to keep good news quiet,
has he decided to roll the dice !!
By choosing a placement the most expensive and painful route what has he said to the recievers.
The offer i have made IS FINAL AND NON NEGOTIABLE i cannot raise any more money take it or leave it .
The longer this issue remains unresolved the more it will hurt the company ultimately,
and with Nigeria possibly coming over the horizon possibly quicker than expected he had to act.
Just some thoughts.
GLA.

Well put Makammick.

Good evening everyone,
i am sorry Tiburn but i think i am probably leaning towards option 1 ,
and i hope that at some point in the coming months we will get the opportunity to discuss this and other points over a good few drinks along with others as well.
Iam not 100% sure it is by grand design but i do think circumstances have presented AM with a golden opportunity to advance the company and possibly at a bargain basement price .
Thank you to shouston ( not sexting lol ) for finding a current article that practically mirrors the point i was trying to make this morning.
Now to a more serious point .
LB you should not be trying to influence the minds of people on the cementing of the dakota well issue.
I spent many years at a a lower support level to exploration platforms in the north sea.
These occurences are common place , overuns, abandonements , sidetracks ,redrills.
So i tell you folks in case people are worried.
Do you really think our senior lenders will get there knickers in a twist over potentially one failed well.
Not a chance , there could billions of $ of oil under our acreage, they will not be worried in the least .
We are not an explorer in this case.
We are a producer on a possibly steeply climbing production curve,
our lenders know this and while they may at some point wish to curb possible AM exuberance in his rush to become a successfull mid cap oiler,
they will never kill the goose that is laying the golden egg over a few failed drills.
The markets may play silly buggers until the future is fully confirmed but our lenders i assume took all of these things into account before they gave AM the money to purchase Atomic in the first place.
i am not sure when the dice will turn in our favour ,
could be tomorrow could be six months time ,
but i am pretty confident that it will.
So i will try to increase my holding when ever spare cash is available and be grateful that all the great research on here by others has only confirmed what i have felt for some considerable time.
This company has so much going for it , one day the real value will be realised and i and the others who keep the faith will be rewarded.

Good morning everyone,
at the moment the first world countries are indulging in its short termist appetite for the instant reaction / over reaction to percieved threat or danger,
it has become just as endemic in our society as the pandemic itself.
It suits certain peoples agenda or personalities to see the daily world in this way.
For those of us more interested in the bigger picture may i suggest,
Watch the ( Andrew Marr show from sunday ) on catch up.
He interviewed the south african Dr who first identified the omicron variant,
she was adamant that although the changes make it more infectious , the symptoms and progression of the illness was relatively mild and certainly no more dangerous than the delta variant.
Therefore Tiburns post is apt,
the oil price blip is only a temporary one, the reason it was rising has not changed as HFB has pointed out many times the rising oil price is actually about the potential shortfalls in production versus demand towards the end of next year ,
that is a long term fundamental and has not changed ,
just like the copl fundamentals have not changed.
if anything it may turn out that low sp/mc and falling oil price may do us a massive favour in the medum to long term.
Short termism is overated imho.
True fundamentals will always win out in the end.
GLA.

Another great post Tiburn ( at the risk of being accused of sexting again lol ),
i had to go out for a while and have only just returned.
At the risk of being very contreversial i was toying with a couple of thoughts,
if i was trying to impress the receivers and a chance for some very good but cost effective PR i would offer the 2 following items to sweeten the deal as far as the receivers were concerned.
Outwith the deal for WI,
I would offer to pay all the unsecured creditors - swp after the deal has been agreed,
cost US$ 1.8 million,
More contreversially i would offer to give the cuda shareholders the value of their shares at suspension ( 0.020/share cad),
At a cost of US$712,005 .
It would barely make a dent in the 18,559,261 shares AM has in reserve.
I am sure people will think i have gone soft in the head,
but imagine the possible great PR that might be created from such ethical and unusual generosity.
It would make the receivers look good,
would make COPL look good ( in conjunction with our green field policy pronounced at the same time ) might attract a whole raft of investors.
The old Cuda investors who might consider taking a punt after receiving a get out of jail card.
Ethical investors who might think that not all oilers are the devils work.
Its might even get the thumbs up from our own ii's and hnw investors who could also use it to there own advantage.
I think could possibly even attract the herd, and many others if this news was handled well, even the market maybe impressed by such magnamous action .
Well ther we are i have put myself up there to be shot at.
GLA.

No problem Doug ,
I hope your figure of 1/8 of the value comes to pass for us.
Even at twice or three times that rate it would be a massive coup/cuda for us .

Oh by the way folks that is total assets ,
it might be arguable that the alberta asset might reduce it by another US$ 3 million that would give
circa US$ 39 milllion give or take.

Afternoon Doug,
The note said it was Canadian dollars,
i just converted to US dollars.

Good Morning Shaa,
well spotted my friend,
so theyare saying assets off US$ 44,353,655
- swp owed US$ 2,190,744
leaves a balance of US$ 42,163,009.
I would say good luck with that ,
the fallen Mcap of COPL and the temporary presumbably fluctuating oil price have given AM the best ammunition
possible to get the best deal possible.
Are the fetes with us once more,
Arty could secure a second cracking deal due to circumstances falling our way.
The current uncertainties in the markets and and initial panic over the new covid strain could make any other interested parties nervous and may pave the way to a great chance for us.
And surprisingly our troubled sp did not fair to badly yesterday against many other shares so there must be some consolation in that lol.
GLA.

Good afternoon Ladies & Gentlemen,
I see our esteemed brothers have been discussing comms today ,
i think there maybe a pattern emerging,
1 piece fo good news together with 1 piece of not so good news,
the less good mf news could have been linked to the Cuda situation,
but the reluctance to give news on the deeps part of the exploration may have other reasons.
It was pointed out to me by my brother that,
All the leases adjacent to te new drills applied for are owned by Khody Land &Minerals, Khody is a subsidary of WPX Energy who are wholly owned by DEVON ENERGY, a 4 billion dollar company ,
i wonder if this in part might explain AM wish to keep the news on these wells and the discovery wells as quiet as he can for as long as possible.
GLA.

Good morning everyone,
If you open the link, expand and find block 35N 76W,
you will see we have 3 producing horizontal wells.

Well the RNA is good news and starts to show the potential here,
it remains to be seen if this is enough to persuade the markets it is time for lift of yet,
but it must show the doubters that the potential here is real and that its onwards upwards from here.
Finally some of our tue potential is beginning to show.
Lets hope this continues to steadily go in the right direction.
GLA.

Iron ,
Don't you see that those of us who think securing Cuda's WI is important is nothing to do with their 27% interest in the Shannon flats
unit.
Its the potential of the deeps units which i think is enormous which may be put into the hands of others if we do not get it.
I understand everyone frustrations about all tha has happened since we relisted,
maybe things could have been handled better re comms and Pr ,
in the short term we have suffered,
but imho the medium and long term gains could be gigantic ,
i know you are obssessed with the daily market,
but what would you rather have ,
a small gain now or very much larger one down the line.
when the facts become clearer then get on the mans back,
but until all the facts are known the tactics played out we cannot judge .
Tiburn and Tedoboy regularly show us what is going on in the background and what the potential results maybe .
Have a little faith all my friends.
GLA.

Yes i agree about the comms and PR,
its all very strange,its seems almost a deliberate to down play every bit of news ,we know he has reams of good news to give the market ,
i find it hard to believe there is not a strategy in play here,
the market action this week was a similar pattern every day,
i get the feeling people are being allowed in at a certain level.
All these things put together,must be planned ,i ma not worried by this though,we on here understand the implications for the company of drill planning going forward,so therefore as you say most of the infomation is publicly available,
there has to be method in the madness.

Good morning Tiburn, never known it so quiet on here since last night lol,
it looks like its full steam ahead for production,
the future here looks so bright it is almost dazzling,
maybe we will have to wait until q2 before people realise the magnitude of what we have here.
The basic numbers are so good people are struggling to take it all in.

Tiburn.
Much as your skills are needed and enjoyed on here,
they would be of more value elsewhrere.
Was rather hoping yesterdays efforts might be the start of it
Well we know that AM is either a very skilled writer and tactician or not as the case maybe.
I suppose ythe events of the coming days and weeks will prove one way or the other.

Sorry Latino ,
can't resist this one,
With "Cuba sorted",
we will al be on the ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuum.

Makkamick,
Copl is already has a green field policy , no flaring , methane re-injection,wind farm generated electric supplies.
Future predictions on supply are expecting shortfalls of productions in the future as temajors are forced away from oil production,
oil while be needed by industry well into the future.

Thats good to know Tiburn,
I will also do the calculation for that area and we can have some fun over the weekend lol
i think people under estimate the importance of getting Cuda not just for the income but the control AM will have and also to ward of any potential hostile attacks from our neighbours who i am sure understand only to well the potential
of the wyoming asset.
