Very good presentation just now. Feeling a lot more +ve about Genel.
Things of interest -
Sarta 5 results expected May.
Sarta 6 results expected Q3.
Somaliland has potential to be Genel's "jewel in the crown".
Bill Higgs believes KRG are committed to paying IOCs. Payments to IOCs are not following any particular pattern (ie not slipping). He used the most recent payment as an example - 5 invoices were sent out. 1st invoice was amongst the 1st paid amongst IOCs, 5th invoice was one of last.
BB & Mirwan - Genel spent $1.4Bn. It sounds like it was pretty much dead in the water, however because of Europe's need to get away from reliance on Russian gas, the landscape has changed, so who knows? BH couldn't comment further because of arbitration.
Cash on balance sheet rather than paying down debt provides optionality.
