The latest Investing Matters Podcast with Jean Roche, Co-Manager of Schroder UK Mid Cap Investment Trust has just been released. Listen here.
No reason for it not to rise. We’ve had regular news. Last RNS was only on Friday.
Knowing the license is approved has given investors confidence that the negotiations and paperwork are done and announcement of drilling schedule is coming.
Aminex is also clearly undervalued considering the asset, impending first gas / revenues etc
Reasons for more people to want to buy than sell the = rising share price
Agreed SC. As I posted on Telegram a short while ago:
I agree it needs to be formally confirmed. It is pretty darned specific though. South East Mtwara. Points directly as Ntorya/Madimba.
Lindi obviously plans to have its own LNG processing facility and that is 100k North.
It’s just one article I agree but it all adds up.
If I were Uganda…
“I want to buy your gas. I need to know how much it will cost before we start spending on a pipeline (which they have)”
“Oh, you haven’t agreed a price for the offshore gas? In fact negotiations aren’t going very well at all? Oh!”
“You’ve discovered a world class gas field onshore? Wow! Great! You’ve agreed the GSA and the gas will be ready from next year and at a much lower cost that the offshore stuff?” Blo*dy amazing”
“Ok, sign me up. Let’s crack on with spending money on planning that pipeline then”
From about two weeks ago:

They may plan to hook up to Madimba and take our gas from there? That’s even further east. Either way, it seems clear that the pipeline to ship gas to Uganda is starting from on our doorstep!
An excellent find by B on Telegram just now. This article mentions that they plan:
“a reverse liquefied natural gas (LNG) pipeline from the south-eastern Mtwara region to Uganda”
Our licence is Mtwara obviously. The offshore LNG is Lindi - about 100km North of Mtwara.
Ntorya is to the South and East of Mtwara.
This strongly suggests the pipeline to Uganda will use our gas.

No. The conference in Oman was So 22 - 24 April. This was, after the 16th April when the Energy Minister gave the speech in which he said The Development License had been approved by the cabinet (the final approval needed) and that TPDC had been instructed to issue the licence to ARA. Sounds like the delegation stayed on after the conference and was hosted by ARA
The fact that our license has all approvals - whilst negotiations regarding the offshore projects are being delayed again + it seems Orca can’t get the time of day from the authorities to discuss their expiring agreements - is hugely significant.
Seeing the Energy Minister on a jolly out in Oman suggests relationships are very good and he is very focused on Ntorya. Also very reassuring.
Really excellent find StockCheque! Thanks for sharing. As I just evidenced with photos on the Aminex telegram, one of the Tanzanian delegation was definitely the Energy Minister (who is also Deputy PM obviously).
So, the top brass are in town!
Oh, and AGM next month. I expect they will want to put on a show! They made a big effort last year. Lots of info. The seismic interpretation team there. Shard Capital too. With the news due and new PR firm in place, I expect this to be a good one 👍
