EXPLORATION license renewal...........7 Jan 2021 12:14
I think the biggest thing the rampers wont like is this line from todays RNS
,,,,,,,-- Depending on technical outcomes, renewal of licences in The Bahamas into a third exploration period (end of Q1 2021), followed by planning for future well activity, and farm-out considerations. .........
It confirms what I have been saying, at best the results of this well will be purely technical, there will be no flow testing with flaring over a period of time. There will be no declaration of commercial. There will be no move to a production license. It is clear the best outcome is a renewal of the "Exploration license" into the next term.
At best it seems they may only be able to do a "mini DST" which would collect some samples from the well bore......this is not a flow test. This is similar to what DES (Desire) did whey claimed from logging they had oil pay, only for the mini-DST samples to reveal it was formation water.....not oil (The whole DES oil to water fiasco).
So, for me it confirms the upside from this well result is very limited given the ongoing dilution. 4p ? 5p ? I believe all those dreaming of over 10p on "success" are going to be quite disappointed..........
Hopefully this ends the ramping talk of "production license" on this single well result. As I have said........any discovery needs many appraisal wells drilled and flow tests to confirm commerciality.
All IMO, DYOR !!
