There are thirteen trading days until ICE2 re-opens. You have been here long enough to know how things work when there is an end game. The closer we get, the more fervent the response. You have seen my guess - investors will pay 4-5p to get a piece of the action before 11th June. Watch this space, and let's see how things pan out. Bottom of the ladder can have his guess for what it's worth!

Whinge, whinge whinge - time to play another tune!

The SP @ COB on 8th June 2018.

I would happily stump up my share of his bar tab if he wins!

Many thanks for doing that Crumble!

If you win, you can buy me a cocktail!

Please let me know if you have submitted a guess and have been omitted. Good luck!

This is now closed, and I will publish the list of entrants in due course. The striking point will be COB 10th June 2018. Good luck!

DW has played a blinder by designating a three week window before ICE2 is re-opened. Will it or won't it, the choice is YOURS to make. Don't blame anyone for ramping or de-ramping, just get on with your decision one way or another. Everyone is motivated by greed or fear - are you greedy or fearful or perhaps both. I suggest that if you are serious about placing some funds here, then complete some in depth research, and read everything of relevance going back to 2015. Personally, I am very excited that we have got this far, and with three substantial projects in the pipeline. I don't care what anyone says, the Conventional is there to be Farmed Out by the entity that gives us the best deal. With 1M barrels net, I am confident that the deal will be/has been done. PB did so much work on the HRZ - it should work, but is still 50/50. Yukon Gold is a bonus - let's see what develops by YE 2o18. There will be white noise, trolls, and all sorts of shenanigans before 11th June. Make of it what you will, and trust in your own judgement. Good luck!

There is no getting away from the frenzy and excitement that will build between now and the 11th June. Will it or won't it? The choice is yours! I am as bullish as ever regarding Conventional assets. 3D remains on track for june, and the continuing thread of a PLANNED FARM-OUT. Does anyone know what that means? This is from the Presentation on 6th April : The Company's preparations for the launch of its planned farm-out, ahead of 2019 drilling operations, is well underway. The formal process is expected to commence mid-2018, based on the early products from the 3D seismic survey. The Company remains confident of achieving a successful outcome to the farm-out process prior to year end for the following reasons (based on the assumption that the 3D seismic is confirmatory of the prospectivity already identified on our 2D database): *High quality database comprising both modern reconnaissance 2D and focused 3D seismic *Excellent oil shows, including live oil to surface, in nearby wells at horizons where good quality reservoir is also evident - coinciding with large mapped leads within the regionally proven Brookian play type *Multi-year permits are already secured for two well locations within the 3D acquisition area, allowing for near term (1H CY2019) drilling *Excellent operating capability, as evidenced by two recently drilled and operated wells, by the Company - both within budget and on schedule *Flexibility to cede operational control, to a suitably operationally experienced partner *Large discoveries in Brookian play type in nearby acreage to the north *Recent industry transactional activity on neighbouring acreage, valuing discovered resources at >US$3/bbl (Source: Oil Search investor presentation Dec 2017)

Today's ANN has made things wide open, given that there is still three weeks before ICE2 is re-opened. This time will allow the herd to arrive, and FOMO to exert it's influence! You have until noon today to get your guesses in. The prize is FREE drinks for the duration of our party in Sardinia, which will probably take place in the Summer of 2019. Good luck!

To my mind the 50/50 risk is around whether there has been a negative reaction to the use of slick water in the fracturing operation. If the next test step (gas lift) yields a poor flow result it is not game over for this well, but means industry will be the better financial partner, as they will understand it is only a matter of cracking the code. 88E already knows it is a good reservoir, they have taken actual pieces of the reservoir in the IW1 coring operations, only 50' away from IW2. When these cores were allowed to depressurize to atmospheric pressure, the 9000 psi pore pressure exuded oil and gas from the cores. So 88e already knows it can flow when fully depressurized, gas lift will substantially drop the down hole pressure, so moving closer to the situation with the core samples. The remaining variable is the slick water, and fracking does not have to use slick water, other options are CO2 liquid, LPG, diesel. In the picture below looking at the sample depth readings (hard to see ) it looks like these are 6" long sections of core that have yielded the beakers of oil. Admittedly they sample sections of core are taken from 11135 to 11150 ft, which is below the IW2v bottom fracture initiation depth (11086) Chances are these were better than average pieces of core but these seem exceptional and should have been accessed by the current fracturing.

The longer this goes, the more I think that DW will apply a news blackout to ICE2 until the well has actually been re-opened. Just my opinion!

I will be happy to do that hh, after the comp closes on Monday. If we are in Sardinia for two weeks, the free drinks could be worth a fortune especially if MM wins it! I will have to think of a limit - maybe �2000. I am sure that the rest of us will be happy to stump up a few quid to meet the bill! Have a great weekend all - don't forget fellas, it's the FA Cup Final and The Royal Wedding. I will leave it up to you as to which one you watch! Sayonara.

I have a strong feeling that she isn't Wozzy!

As Livin put it, it was only meant as a bit of fun, but with a nice prize if we ever get to Sardinia. I will continue with the comp, as long as I don't get any more grief!

No probs!

Are you still in URU?

You can toss all you like guzzler!
