After 3 days of no news, I can reveal that crude oil tanker Afra Willow sailed the relatively short distance from Front Puffin and arrived at Yoho Terminal (off Port Harcourt, Nigeria) on 13/10/2019 at 17:12 Local Time (UTC) and is currently stationary there. There is no update on what draught she is drawing.

Did it contain sensitive insider information that has not been made public yet?
Remember the old MXO Ltd bought £850k worth of shares at £4.32 each, the same as paid by Frangos & Co. for their stake in the business ... the next consolidation statement due in December should show the updated shareholder list, with MXO replaced by ADME unless they have sold them.

Was I dreaming, I don't think so, but was there a large copy and paste on here giving the latest update on the state of play for this private company we are invested in?
It seems to have been taken down.
Why?

Our partner in AJE OML-113, Panoro Energy spiked 9.22% to a year high of 22.50NOK (Norwegian Kroner)on the Oslo bourse today.
They have made a huge discovery of oil potential in their Gabon offshore field and continue to evaluate their Tunisian prospect and prosper from oil income.... perhaps this will spur ADME into similar action and look for a similar spike in our fortunes.

Fujairah Port... UAE .... but don't think it will be there.... see my earlier posts and thoughts.

In the past, before it was castigated for being a product for drug addicts only, industrial hemp was grown extensively on the rich fertile soil of Calabria & Puglia in Southern Italy, where temperature and conditions are favourable. New technology and growing methods have identified the Kompolti Hungarian strain of Cannabis to be the most productive for CBD Oils, but recent developments have cross-fertilised the traditional Italian Carmagnola variety with it to give a high CBD oil (25%) product with vigorous plants that are hardy and commercially improved, namely Carmagnola Select (CS).
This information was gleaned from the Naturi Vita website:

With the anticipation of tremendous opportunities for Italian farmers in the region to benefit from the relaxation of laws surrounding cannabis growing, it will be seized upon by the Italian Government to augment the economy and workforce. Barriers will be lifted accordingly.

Afra Willow arrived off of Front Puffin on 30th Sept awaiting orders, it sailed around in circles until 9th October 10:24 UTC when it docked alongside FP, it departed on 10th October at 14:12 UTC ... last seen sailing S, SW at 10.4kn in Gulf Of Guinea with the same draught of 8.2m as when it arrived. Its max draught is 14.88m. .... that was at the last reference position 8 hours 58 minutes ago (11/10/2019 02:35 UTC) ... so it may have turned the GPS off, or only being shown on the satellite paid for version (Marine Traffic).

There are a number of new or recent start-up companies in the burgeoning CBD Oil sector who are actively looking to expand and promote investment via a placing on the small to medium capital markets. They are ideally looking for a shell to RTO into to keep the costs down and fast track them into AIM or similar in the USA .
One company that may be of interest is London based Naturi Vita Ltd where Andrew Frangos is the principal shareholder of the private company. They have invested in land in Southern Italy to reintroduce the crop of hemp (for medical cannabis), but as sales grow they require further investment to acquire more land which is currently comparatively cheap due to the recession in Italy. They have stated on their website that they intend to float the company in the near future. Europe is ideally placed to distribute the product where demand is growing daily.
This could suit BOU's intention to enter the Health market with massive growth potential.
Perhaps someone from both companies read this and start the wheels moving (unless they have already).

Afra Willow on the move, departed Front Puffin 14:12 Local Time (UTC) 10/10/2019 heading south, south-east ....strange the draught still shows 8.2m., the same as when it arrived at FP ... does this mean there was no offtake of crude oil cargo? ... or the captain hasn't updated his log?

Afra Willow now docked alongside Front Puffin ... 09/10/2019 10:24 UTC .....

Let the pumping begin !!

Has anyone on here a sign-in link to access this article?

What is also interesting, the original orders posted for Afra Willow showed that since leaving Japan (Kiire port) its destination was shown as Fujairah (UAE) and has taken in a lifting from Front Puffin en route. ... Could this have been brokered when HH Sheikh Ahmed was on board, using his influence within the Arab world?
It is unlikely it will now sail on to UAE, would be akin to taking coals to Newcastle, therefore a new itinerary will no doubt be posted.

Crude oil tanker Afra Willow and security support vessel Hudson Lady Roseline have moved closer to FPSO Front Puffin since their arrival on 30th Sept., therefore I predict an offtake is imminent.
1 minute ago, Lady Roseline was 0.81nm and Afra Willow 1.41nm off of the FPSO. (nm = nautical miles) which is very close for a large vessel that requires plenty of room to manoeuver.
I expect the umbilical connection will be made shortly, with the help from tugs and the transfer of crude oil can begin.

Crude Oil Tanker: Afra Willow still circling near to Front Puffin, even closer now with support vessels in attendance.
It has been in the vicinity since arrival on Monday 30th Sept., so looks like any time now for a docking manoeuvre.
Shame the oil price has fallen below $58 (BrentCrude) .... perhaps they are waiting for a recovery before the offtake, unless pre-sold higher.

Crude oil tanker Afra Willow is still sailing in circles off of Front Puffin (3 minutes ago), with Security Support ship Hudson Lady Roseline and tugs in attendance. This makes me believe there will be some action regarding a lift in the next day or so.

Interesting that ther is a crude oil tanker in the vicinity of Front Puffin and the security vessel is also close by.

5 minutes ago (Marine Traffic report) ... Crude Oil Tanker Afra Willow is approx 4.7 nautical miles off of FP and is empty (8.2m draught ... her max is 14.88m) so she could be lined up for an offtake ... although her destination orders are shown as Fujairah (UAE), she could be diverted to make an uplift from FP en route.
The support ship Hudson Lady Roseline is close by manned by Nigerian Security Service personnel.
Both vessels are virtually stationary.
Will monitor further and update.

Currently sailing past Madagascar in the Indian Ocean, nearing Reunion Island and Mauritius, on her way to Huangdao, China with an eta of 19/10/2019 ... speed 12knots, draught is 14.2m, so has a full load. (Marine Traffic updated 5 minutes ago).
If this tanker is contracted to do the next lift from Front Puffin, the earliest we can expect her now is mid November ...
The only action at FP has been a supply ship and the escort military vessel.

Same old flannel and promises ...
Until there are definite licences issued in Oman & Moz they are dead in the water.
Now Portugal is the "flagship" to divert disappointment away from the other two.
We now need firm announcements of JV's and collaboration with other interested parties to underwrite a higher SP.

Yes I sent email & tweet to the ruler of UAE, Sheikh Mo ... he reads twitter and is an active poster on there.

So in your eyes Spikey it was the BOD who were perpetrating the confidence trick ... they were acting in concert to fleece new investors by putting up a "Phantom Sheikh", with his consent, to attract PI's in a totally fraudulent exercise ?
