RE: Economics of Loukos onshore well24 Nov 2024 16:15
Thank you for your calculations Fernan, greatly appreciated.
It's very hard to understand the realities (READ POTENTIAL) of Loukos the results indicate a 70m pay zone, with no flow test conducted (nor has it been completed at Anchois-2 either) correct?
Loukos: RNS 28th May
Confirms the presence of reservoirs over an interval of approximately 200m gross thickness, corresponding to the pre-drill targets; and
Within which an approximate 70m gross interval of primary interest has been identified containing elevated resistivities coincident with elevated mud gas readings, indicating POTENTIAL gas pays, with no water-bearing reservoirs identified.
Further post-drill analysis will be conducted in preparation for well flow testing which will determine the well productivity and the gas resource potential of the discovery.
With points raised in press statement: 27th Feb (before final above RNS
"The EIA for Loukos covers up to 20 well operations and Chariot will kick off with an initial exploratory drill on two prospective wells at Gaufrette and Dartois and has the option to re-enter an historic gas discovery.
Pierre Raillard, head of gas business and Morocco country director said: “…This is not only an important STEP towards our INITIAL drilling campaign but EIA APPROVAL for multiple additional locations gives us flexibility in future campaigns"

Apart from their mismanagement they are good at hiding, changing or omitting actions not done or to do in the wording.
It can misslead people who are not fully knowledgeable on each and every step in exploration, appraisal, testing, FEED, FID/Sanction, procurement development etc etc
Note: which I (stress) am NOT an expert on, but learnt a bit from Premier/Harbour/ RKH experiences.
I do acknowledge you do seem more knowledgeable Fernan and agree with all you say, but I have lost faith in what these "directors" Say, Print or Do.
BUT
We may get surprised and they pull a 6ft Rabbit out of a small hat? 😬
