Perhaps if ocelot took a few posters off filter it might help.
Loxley - no news for 2 months about a 'pre-planned' (!) farm out of a well that posters like ocelot believe to be worth billions. Not snapped up instantly by a pre planned farminee.
Basur - September placing was to 'help' deliver the well (not fully fund) and the phase 2 seismic processing (which was meant to be fully funded by the earlier placing in July). Until the new data is processed, interpreted and mapped the location of the next well isn't decided, acquisition was RNS'd as completed on 16/8. There's a new map, tweeted in July, from the phase 1 seismic that has a much smaller closure - optimistically squeezed in between strike lines - there's no mention made even of the volumes now likely to be tested. UKOG has also determinedly avoided enlightening investors as to the actual production levels of wells in the adjacent and lookalike E Sadak Field. Information gleaned from 'scout' reports show variable results, generally no better than HH-1 initially and possibly faster decline. Even if successful it's unlikely production will do much more than fund the next well in Turkey to maintain production levels, and then the next.....etc.
HH - The producing well is valued by UKOG at less than £4mm - it averaged in June less than 60bopd. During July site works were carried out and new downhole and surface pumps installed, production in August not yet known so expectations that the 'new' pump/s might see higher production levels over the period before the workover is not confirmed, more likely a slight increase due to being shut in for most of July. Permission for multiple additional wells has been in place - notwithstanding legal challenges - since 2019 and UKOG withdrew the original application to the EA for HH-2z conversion to an injector delaying it being granted for about a year. Since being granted all UKOG RNS'd in August that they are preparing for the conversion, despite having years to 'prepare' for what many posters to believe to be a game changer to production prior to grant of permission, seems a bit like preparing for Godot to arrive?
