Although no placing is welcome. This one shows that the BOD are committed to getting the drilling done on time.
We are basically doing all the grunt work so a partner can step on board for the drill as the train is leaving the platform. Everything will be ready for them. I would have actually perferred ROSE to have raised $10m so they could have gone it alone if a jv did not materialise, (such as MATD,) but I understand that the BOD have limits on how much they can raise.
IMO opinion the CPR will make excellent reading. The stated COS of 56% was given by Ryder Scott in 2014 and the 3D's must increase this substantially. I think the first drill will actually be an appraisal well with a COS of 75% plus.ROSE were also desperate to increase their acreage and the BOD must have a strong reason for this. All will be revealed.
This is still a very risky investment and the BOD are not in favour with many PI's and I understand why. Some are 98% down and very upset at how they have been handled. However, I think that anyone investing now stands more than a half decent chance of getting a reasonable return. But as South continuously points out. Watch out for more dilutions as I am sure more will be on the way, in particular if we get a decent rise on the back of news.
As for Twitter, ROSE is posting two or three tweets a day and if we all follow ROSE and re tweet their posts the word will slowly get around. I am convinced that they have a jv lined up and word is slowly getting around about the potential here.
6 weeks to the CPR and the permitting process is well underway. Lots of news to come here.
