Now where are.
... Let's be realistic and assume that our offshore discovery will not provide any revenue untill about 2026.
...True we may farm out and get some portion of our expenditure to date, back as part of any deal, and this could help the future funding of our remaining share of the offshore gas.... This cash will not provide funds that will be coming back to shareholders, we will have to wait for full blown production before we get a return.
.... So that leaves us looking at the onshore gas to provide any emmediate cash flow, and the company have been talking about a little over a year for that to happen.
.
.. Firstly I think that is extremely optomistic, especially as we haven't even found any gas there yet.... Planning, permission, drilling , testing, and then planning again for production, and finally producing and selling gas all takes time... There should be no surprise that all those steps could easily add another 6 months to a year for any cash to start flowing back to Char,.. and that's always assuming that we find commercial gas from our onshore drilling programme...
.....What if we don't find commercial gas??
. But let's hope that we do, and things run reasonably smoothly, the big question I can see is.
.
.... Have we got enough cash to take us to production, and revenue flow.??
.
. My guess is no...... So look for more fund raising.
.
. As things stand, I see no rush to buy into char.
