Just a short recap - just over 4 weeks ago we were in the 2.8/2.9p range all week. Today’s drop, puts us at the same level as last Weds which was after 6 consecutive blue days. The RNS just 2 weeks ago said we were due to spud at the end of the month. It is unlikely to come this week, probably late next week but if it’s Monday 30th Sept it is still within the stated timeframe. We have waited a long time so if it’s a week late - so what? I came across some comments I printed off when LGO reported the newly drill had initial flow rates of over 1000 bopd and the SP rose 50%. I have no idea what the SP will be tomorrow, next week, on spud or on a (hopefully) successful drill but 50% from today’s SP put us near 7P. Yes I agree the potential is huge but I would caution over optimism, if we hit the jackpot then we can all be very pleasantly surprised but I do think talk of £1 or even 50p in the near future is unrealistic (very happy to be proved wrong) and can do more harm than good. Don’t get me wrong I am a glass half full person and really hoping for a big success here but it is not going to happen overnight. My point is we are the same company we were 2 weeks ago, no update, nothing has changed except we are 2 weeks closer to spudding the well. Knifeman I remember your posts several years ago and like most LTH I shared your pain, welcome back! GLA!
