Your comment about HTHP wells – whether on, or offshore – is spot on, they can be a SOB.
We drilled a well off Great Yarmouth, one time – it was neither high temp, nor high pressure, but it “bubbled” all the time [flow checked a total of an hour and an half every time when we POOH] - that one took us 9 months to drill to cased TD
Keep up the good informative posting – I have recently increased my holding again, as the potential must be realised at some stage, but if not, still holding back a significant amount, to “play” or put elsewhere, if necessary.
Take care, endure the simplistic flak, as lots of sad characters constantly appear here to vent their spleen. I believe that they are known as “professional investors/dealers.”
