Looks like a signifcant holder is unwinding their position.
And no wonder - the licence delays and lack of support from the partner stinks and is a significant risk of losing all.
Without funding, will they get the licence??
Without licence, I can't see them getting funding!!
Oh dear.
Nice to see SO off still in dreamland. They targetted 250 bopd from the workovers. Sefton claimed this was 100% likely by last summer. A year later they are producing 35 bopd - not sure how that meets initial targets? Usual lack of specific detail in the last rns is typical of this bod. I remember last summer them saying the rig for 103 would be on site in September, only to find later that they had failed to mention that they had not secured a rig. And that the partner was not paying their share so actually they couldn't afford one anyway.
The bod not buying in has always been a big red flag. I seem to remember, this winter, after failing to achieve performance target's for their options, they simply moved the goal posts.
A list of red flags here as long as your arm.
Until there is clarity about the licence I won't be investing no matter how low it drops.
After the past performance and with so much uncertainty let's see who's prepared to stump up $6mill and at what cost to holders. As I said earlier, I looks like institutions are disposing rather than accumulating.
Best of luck
