hope2gain - you have effectively paraphrased the slogan and advertising strategy of RT, formerly known as "Russia Today", the Russian government-sponsored media organisation. LOL. You've just outed yourself!!

Interesting how some posts I've now been popping up trying to dilute the specific examples that I've provided (and Stockdale's subsequent reference to yesterday's news update about Salisbury) by throwing some generalities semi-nonsense... have I accidentally ruffled some feathers?

I'm forgetting Hungary as well, whose leader and Putin have become mates.... Hungary is definitely bigger than Slovenia but its economic weight is still a feather compared to Russia's. I think most people have got my point by now!!

It is part of the Russian strategy to maintain either a sphere of influence abroad, or destabilise other states (at least neighbouring ones or those with a Slavic connection).

See what they did with Ukraine, with Syria, or even the partial control Russia has with Belarus and Central Asian CIS states.

Vladimir Putin's meeting about a year ago with the head of Slovenia supports that view - indeed, why would he bother spending time with such a tiny country otherwise?!?

If Slovenia does not need Russian gas imports anymore, that would symbolically dent Russia's place as the main supplier for the whole of Europe and inspire other countries to seek alternatives (and not necessarily from Slovenia) even faster than they have been.

I also suspect (with no conclusive evidence admittedly) that the organisation that lost its NGO status and kept appealing was connected to Gazprom and the Russian government too.

Without any conclusive evidence whatsoever of this, I would not be surprise if Gazprom and/or the Russian government are trying all they can to scupper as much of the process as possible. But ultimately I still suspect Ascent will get there...

On the other hand, I'm amazed that the SP has held relatively high this AM in spite of those Twitter delay claims.

So if they are putting the pipe back in now, they were not perforating... or can we perforate (and thus trigger or increase flow) BEFORE putting in the pipe?

Thanks in advance.

I’m still trying to see if the technicals suggest it is a reversal.

Under what conditions do (reasonable) people believe a takeover offer is more likely to happen?

After the declaration of commerciality of both layers, just one, or before that?

Or later, after there is a confirmed (i.e. not hypothetical) route for the oil to be brought to a designated refinery?

Anything else?

Thanks

Do some people get that this is the confirmation of what was already announced on the 20 and 30 August. There is therefore a very low (if any at all) likelihood that the share price will react negatively today, because it already did last month!

What problems do you have?

The rise has been (relatively) heavily sold into - and with the awful real spread on that one, that's not a share to trade.
More a punt, and after the purchase set it aside until it brings fruits in however many months.
(I've been following that one closely for 1.5 years.)

Was that a perforation gun or something to take out / drill the plug?!?!

Each means a different stage in the process (see the earlier video I posted).

I smell a placing at 0.90p by Monday...

Gents, thanks for the kinds words, glad that video helped.

Re: Xodus report, I agree that it would be akin to commercial suicide to say that the preliminary results were good if they are not expecting the Xodus report to say the same, even more so when that report is due to follow relatively soon after that statement.

Well perforation shown at 3:45 approx.

Considering that was a day ago, I'd expect the oil to start flowing today...

1onic - I hope this entertainment of yours (didn't you say you were bored when you bought?) didn't cost you the price of too many cinema tickets!...

I should have kept my trap shut on your behalf, did you see the price action just now?!?!....

1onic - Talking of bottom feeding, still holding on to those KEFI golden tickets?...

Now that Arsene Wenger's been kicked out, just bump off Mourinho and that's feasible...

mainshare - days, weeks, months or years.

That is determined by the reasons for the suspension and how quickly the company deals with those.

Examples of suspensions without prior notice from companies that I've witnessed:

1-2 days (I can't recall exactly): Fitbug (they changed their name since then.)
4 months and counting: Lionsgold (They claim they will complete the required steps to lift the suspension by Q4 2018).

Note that those two were due to announcements of deals or similar new business announcements.

I know of suspensions that have gone for years, and counting, but they were pre-announced and due to issues (they couldn't find new Nomads, or they did not clinch the deals they needed for regulatory reasons (cash shells and reverse T/Os)).
