Bit of despondency here on a blue day, building on yesterdays surprising blue day (in spite of Bond conversion RNS.)
FWIW. Further indications that the GGS is working, can be found by the amount of flaring currently going on.
Eazy is quite right to highlight sustainable increases in Opex for the additional injectates, but for me the interesting (comforting) point is that the amount of gas flaring now is extremely low.
Previously there was one well in May 23, that flared $230k worth of gas, and produced about the same value in oil sales .
That same well in the last reported figures, show a negligible amount of flaring. But similar value oil sales.

Regarding waxing being a specific issue for COPL, I understand that waxing is common place globally, and there are techniques to manage them. (Perhaps a bit more pressure will simply blow the wax out...) COPL has already invested in mobile equipment to manage build ups.
Lots of us happily invested (just) for 5kpd, and I am pretty sure with the new Capex installed and Opex in place, a clear pathway to that point can be found.
Most 'Post Atomics', never invested thinking we would buy out CUDA so, "painfully" soon. Nor discover a billion barrels, nor sign an LOI with an oil major.
(Pre Atomic investors are on another pathway)
