“on February 14th final marine operations on ABM-151 commenced. They were estimated to take a week and were expected to result in production of between 60 and 110 BOPD”
In a few weeks we will know whether those figures were accurate predictions or mere aspirations…
In the short term though there should be a recovery (no doubt frustratingly slow) towards the previous high watermark (12p) as all this new information is digested. I remain very relieved that the audit delay was not down to some awful skeleton in the cupboard.
These bulletins used to be much more regular, less in arrears and therefore a useful resource. Is the Government perhaps too embarrassed to report on their ongoing failure to raise production levels?
I am beginning to wonder how much they can control. If Monday’s Budget doesn’t see the current temporary $75 onshore SPT threshold made permanent, TRIN really won’t have much going for it.
Is it that positive? The badly judged hedges that are part of the problem are at least are expiring, but there is no sign that the other part of the problem, SPT, is going away anytime soon. I am not expecting much from the Budget on Monday. Amazing lack of interest/volume in TRIN. Investors have watched the potential growth catalysts disappear one by one and have now largely given up.
I am underwhelmed by that update but it is not true to say that if the drilling fails the cash is gone, not when four of the wells are low risk/conventional.
