I saw the 'buy out burgundy' theory from Oilman Jim on X. The RNS would need to state clearly if the funds were to buy out Burgundy and it doesn't. However, the RNS does include the following with regard to Project Phoenix:
'· Project Phoenix, Alaska: Following the successful flow testing at the Hickory-1 discovery well, 88 Energy will be focused on:
o Completing post-well testing and analysis at Hickory-1;
o Securing a contingent resource for the SFS and SMD reservoirs;
o Commencing a formal farm-out process to attract a high-quality new partner to fund the next stage of appraisal and development; and
o Advance planning and design of a early stage production system.'
Note 'attract a high quality new partner'. Could be more here that would support Oilmans Jims view should a new partner want to remove any other party? But I doubt via this raise today.
Investment at this stage depends on whether you believe they are telling the truth about the latest flow test and how attractive they are to the industry.
When all of the flak on a message board is from tribal views from those weak enough to need to deramp a rival company..... well I consider those views not worth knowing.
