Our resident trolls employer is moving in....I believe Ross was made redundant as a result ;)

Except for the Xmas 2017 production bet, the Q1 production bet, and every bet after that, I'm not often wrong. But on the run up to the 10th, I'm anticipating some nothwards movement in SP, given all the recent activity, predator, the steeldrum acquisition, the oil price generally, the shakeup of petrotrin. I can see a lot of optimism to be found in CERP with the potential upcoming environment. LLL would obviously disagree, but most others think otherwise.

Oh yeah, he did take a visit to China, I believe someone once said. CB also said about increasing to 7or8 plants, and moving volume is key....I really hope for his credibilities sake, and the sake of our wallets, that he pulls a blinder, rather than has us chasing rainbows. But if all these things are combined, and related, it worries me that the incoming outfit(s) are not big players who would generally have one plant to do the job, but rather a small company that can only afford many little machines, for the many forms of mineralization...Not that it's much different except the CB contracted with Moz...a diamond miner.

Just read the article you posted, Turin gets into a fight and quits! I watch freeview and haven't seen these seasons yet, kinda killed the story ;)

Hahahaha...I'm guessing that Dave Turin seized control....meanwhile Todd challenges the boys to a sing-off, lol.

I can't remember where it came from, but i'm aware that a couple of people on the board quoted CB as saying 2-6wks in private conversations. ...6yrs, 26yrs....same thing eh? ;)

...Come to think about it, Todd controls a far larger operation than we do....and he pulled 830ozs from Indian River....WTF!?! Maybe I'd be happier?

Cyberichas - Agreed...and that mine shaft....you mean Colins recently mentioned adit don't you?....maybe it was hint to us all ;) Gixxer - If I heard the name Todd, I would probably cry...he fails at absolutely everything, he's negligent, clumsy, and yet the leader of a fair sized operation!?! Now you mention it, I do briefly remember CB saying something about the yanks....probably that they're invading Mozambique or something realistic like that.

When the quarterly is released, not only am I expecting to hear an increase in production and revenue. I'm hoping to hear that phase 4 of the Omnia plan is on schedule and conplete, inline with the commissioning of the HR plant, due in November.

"Maybe the transformation of Petrotrin will be seamless but it has the potential to be chaotic" I missed this bit, and fair comment. But let's "not ignore the possibility" of a seamless transition either.... as you consitantly fail to do on every 'Petrotrin' post you make.

Lol...3 options, but only give two ;) I mean two options.

Just to confirm, I was actually talking about the IPSC, same mistake I always make. I understand that we are simply contractors, and that we receive cash for producing on their behalf, hence why I mentioned 'a commission'. The oil is of course the propety of TT.gov, but there is three options in my opinion... a) Petrotrin goes bust, in which case, all and any oil from the island is taxed like elsewhere, then shipped (unless another refinery pops up), thus allowing producers to sell and generate higher returns than the IPSC would have allowed. Or, b) Petrotrin instead chooses to buy oil from producers like CERP, without any side agreements like the IPSC that has contributed to the pain TT.gov has experienced, and is still experiencing as a result of the low oil price days. Fanciful? .....Petrotrin appears not to have many options available to them, they will need to keep producing oil to appease the people. Ask yourself this question...How business friendly is an agreement like the IPSC to private producers, when there is more money to make elsewhere where an IPSC does not exist? As the oil price rises, don't think that LK, or any other contractor will stay in the country, whilst other minnows reap the rewards of more favourable jurisdictions.

...Add that to the Iranian sanctions, which have resulted in swift increases in Oil prices recently, and cerp is on to a winner.

I understand that you're super enthusiastic to highlight petrotrins issues...but what has that got to do with CERP? .....is it not possible that this is the action required in order to collapse the existing SPT agreements, allowing all contractors currently under such agreements, the freedom to sell at world market prices instead of being paid comissiin for what they produce? Let's not forget, the people of TT would suffer more without any oil production....I think you are purposefully highlighting negatives without drawing people's attention to the unforseen benefits of what you dribble.

Nearly forgot to buckle up...safety first!

Well spotted HH, sounds brilliant....bring on the 10th.

Hahaha ;)

If Sally can sell sea shells by the sea shore, why the **** can't Colin get gold in a gold mine?

Peter - Thanks, it's got a bit of a ring to it. Offerman, go for the piggyback, I'm sure many on here would be happy, lol....at least we'd all know it's you without an announcement.

And you're host for tonight's presentation ladies and gentlemen, can we welcome to the stage for the Cerpwood 2018 live event, Mr Leeeoooo Koooot! ...perhaps you should wear you're tuxedo Offerman?
