Mole - You've slightly confused me, but I have not been here for more than a few days.
Hans Deul has been stable all Monday and is flanked by three Esvaght vessels.
What puzzles is the presence of a search&rescue/military boat 2 nm north of the rig.
. . . possibly a safety precaution only.

DC @ 17:15 - Just goes to show I am never likely to be a substantial investor with that sort of stash.
Are you in any other company with a similar stake?

Yes, I noted it was announced.
Smart-looking vessel with crew cabins..

BigOrange XV111 busy with well stimulation right now.
GlomarBaltic continues to stand off in the WSW.

Have been looking at DELT for a year.
Maybe I'll do something about it in the coming week.

Last post for the day.
Whilst Esvaght Champion is standing by Bugsier, Havila Jupiter and Fairplay are working in tandem.

Mildly surprised - perhaps conditions are favourable - as I had understood the rig would be put into a safe haven. Maybe remedial steps are not going to take as long as first thought.

So unless postponed ONP ops should resume in the coming week although I note miscreants severed the pipeline at 373.2 km on 03/01/22. Any splinter faction holds me back from adding.

". . . the Presidency of the Council of Ministers - PCM, announced the installation of a Working Group, on January 15, 2022, to begin the implementation of the plan to close gaps in the population located in the oil field".

Mole - Answer. First I ain't no authority. Am amazed at times that an investor can have as much as £50k on a single stock . . . whereas my AIM p/f amounts to £30k. In fact, an Aviva growth fund, held for ~20 years, comprises a greater sum. On that point, if you or anyone has years on your side, I recommend that route as a pension pot.

Of the seven the only one I put forward is JSE with some assurance. It will be added to in February if the NZ government throws out Maari approval. If so, it could result in a 7% drop, enabling an add-on. Blakeley (like AA in KIST) knows his stuff.

Recently I have restricted investment to companies with exceptionally strong cash flows. Among them -
* SHG - Bushiangala/Isulu, W Kenya, should throw up a 3m oz Au resource
* THS will go places this year
[all above regions @ Rustenburg (SA), Ngezi (Zim), Kakamega/Kisumu (WK) are well known to me]
* PTAL - Now that GTE are out of the frame Manolo, provided Loreto locals lift all barriers tomorrow, should be able to exceed 20k bopd quite quickly and get Constitucion up and running

Sundry - ADV is certainly a compelling prospect but for various factors I shall be exiting this week. With Putin and cronies up to all kinds of mischief anything could happen within days: IOG and KIST could accordingly be making waves. Also, on ADVFN, posters such as MountTeide and Thommie, are impressive with their research base.

You have given me fresh appetite.
I'll give HHR attention over the weekend. Noted -

They are mostly one-liners but the attention its receiving is worth some scrutiny.
(I now have seven compelling AIM stocks, the majority of which are heavily cash-rich.)

Managed to squeeze in an order before I regret leaving it too late.
Should keep me quiet for a bit.

Frenetic buying across the FTSE board from 16:00 onwards.
And annoyingly I suspect a privileged few got wind of a morning announcement at 16:15.
Hope to be wrong but it's never a level playing field.

. . . and bid strengthening into close @ 90.875p.

Don't know others' views but can accept/handle a meandering SP provided dividend return holds or improves. The company is on the road to growing performance. Costs are likely to escalate with underground mining overheads but that step is some time off. Overall, management's enthusiasm is well founded.

Thanks, gents, for all posts.
They have helped getting me up to speed.

As parliament only returns in the first week of February my expectations turn to March for Maari completion. In addition I have no idea what the Taranaki action group are up to.

With Brent again crossing into $85 territory Jadestone's coffers will be doing better than nicely. It remains a puzzle as to why retail investors consider mild pursuit in accumulating with some indifference. It's all very well being attracted to something like ADV whereas a solid producing outfit like JSE gets a cooler reception.

I have no gripes over one or two funds/instis reducing their stakes here in order to keep clients satisfied: I am one of them, in a growth fund for 20 years, noting a return of 35+% in the past 12 months alone. Recent reductions have therefore have a spanner in the works but PB should have response(s) in the next three months.

MT, I note you continue to put in the mileage, both here and ADVFN.

Being a late arrival I have a bit of catching up to do with you fellas . . . starting with the present hiccup.

Hans Deul might be of questionable design stability. As there are a series of probes to be undertaken off Norfolk would AH be better advised to hunt down another rig? -

At present Esvagt Champion (Denmark), a safety vessel, is standing by the rig -

Vos Paradise, presumably out of Ijmuiden, is also alongside. I hope she is not in the process of removing equipment but is about to start a tow -
https://www.vesselfinder.com/?imo=9685762
(I note she has been in and out of Great Yarmouth over the past couple of weeks.)

Keeping my powder dry for a bit. Am in Kist at present.

Volume picking up. Folk must be getting back from their hols in CT, Durbs and Plet.
Latest results by Friday if not sooner.

All being well it should be a bountiful year for Tharisa.

Sailor @ 07:36 - Yes, you are probably right. A similar problem occurred with Prospector 1 rig (KIST) and the Tideway "Rollingstone" was dispatched from Ijmuiden to rectify.

Just a minor hiccup here. Keep an eye on MarineTraffic updates at the site.

DC - After some examination I tend to agree with your sentiment. Am unwilling to tamper with five good stocks at present. There is, however, one exception with CEY: Shall consider taking out £3k - losing 10% on the transaction - putting it here for a trial run. Alternatively the option is to again raid the piggy bank. And most of us are guilty of taking that step.

Not invested yet but have joined the reading room ranks.
All being well I shall add IOG to the p/f in the next fortnight.
Certainly don't know sufficient to add any useful comment.
