Fwiw … the buyer and seller were 72 Credit Suisse. Previous to that transaction the same buyer bought 14,500 shares from another source .

Does being conservative then, extend to pulling up stakes at Jethro-1 earlier than others would under the same circumstances.

My optimism meter is on the rise the longer this takes.

Will there be an announcement tomorrow at the TSX close or are we to wait until Monday/ 40-1, before markets open in London.

Could all this additional activity along with the increased acreage be directly related to the 250 million barrels Eco say we have on Jethro versus the 100 million barrels Tullow say we have. After all we were to drill and move on, could GH's estimate be correct and Tullow was caught short in the necessary tool department. With Tullow the operator I don't think an initial failure on Jethro would see GH getting his way to continue drilling to prove his estimate by drilling elsewhere on the site. The Stena Forth hasn't moved, Tullow has a full plate and would have moved off already if this was a dry well.

They were at par earlier in the day, wait for the close. The penny flippers are doing well of late, buy at $1.05 and sell for a 10-15% profit then rinse and repeat as they say.

Aurituk would be part of the unitization of Hammerhead.

Having Hammerhead to fallback on is great, but how long will it be before it is monetized and how much of it will be ours.

Any update on Guyana's decision regarding QP's attempt to take 40% of Total's share of Orinduik? Should QP lose the decision might they not then consider taking out Eco?

freshair, I believe someone posted the Guyanese government wouldn't want us to drill Hammerhead, the reason being it would be one more drill expense to be deducted from their income. This is where/when the unitization conversation started.' It might have been ' itsyou' so perhaps he might confirm.

olderandwiser, apologizes for bringing up the gas question, it wasn't meant to turn into a discussion. I was looking for some idea as to whether we'd be bought out for gas alone.

Another 40k on the smaller venues if anyone is really counting.

Only my friends call me that! Seriously, I've had a feeling this was going to be a gas play from day one, just a hunch of course. What would a large gas find be worth in this part of the world, anyone? Something to kick around while we wait.

Gas! One of my first posts here was my concern over gas and it was ignored - gathered it was impolite.

The plan going into the Jethro drill was to find oil and sell the company. We're now extending the drilling period, and will perhaps continue the surveying. Hope we aren't kidding ourselves?

Are you 100% sure the extension until November is a 100% positive. The TSX is down on decent volume, there may be some that interpret the extension as desperation.

For those that follow the antics on the Venture ... share bids out number the asks 5:1. Its a level 2 snapshot and lord knows could change shortly, but its refreshing if not slightly encouraging.

Bang on mate! Btw, have you or older&wiser been in contact with 'itsyou'? He has been AWOL for sometime now!

Total of 1800 shares on the bid this morning, $1.12-$1.28.

A friend described the recent activity at a particular US Naval Air Base as so increased it appeared to be in preparation for war.

To olderandwiser's point - it's impossible to sell.

And here I thought the sp had seen it's last summer doldrums … late August, and with a history of being late on announcements this could be September. More buying opportunities ahead I suppose, still, I'm as optimistic as ever.

My understanding was the drilling was to commence April 17th but after so much time elapsing the difference is moot of course.

Somebody here previously stated the government wasn't interested in having an additional group drill Hammerhead due to additional costs being absorbed by Guyana. IMHO Diversified is quite correct when he refers to the 6 parties having to be on board with some sort of sharing plan re Hammerhead - ideally before drilling.
