Snow Leopard was originally scheduled to spud 15 Sept 2017 and take 50 days.
19 Sept 2017 Matad advised that as the certification of the rig wouldn’t be completed before October “there will be insufficient time to mobilize the rig and complete the drilling program before winter conditions set in”.
In 2017 they didn’t want to start a 50 day drill that could have begun late October so yes, posters have every right to discuss possible winter weather conditions ( even tho 2 posts yesterday sent some into a frenzy ).
Grogers,
Why, thank you - it’s nice to know “they” are entitled to their opinion. I am so sorry that you have to listen to this repeatedly - it’s terrible.
You must find horribly tedious to listen to the crowd crowing about the rerate coming, the last chance to get in at these prices, have to be desperate to sell now, going up tomorrow. Yes, I agree with you - listening to it repeatedly is enough to get on your nerves.
I’ll believe WH is being drilled this year when they announce a spud date.
“Knowing how Mike Buck operates, I would say they are dragging the SL result out so that WH is no longer possible this year”.............19 Sept
So, guess you’re not above a bit of doomsaying yourself.
Matad advised of SL spud date 2 weeks in advance.
If they’re going to drill this year, they’ll have to do it soon. And if they are going to drill, they must have some idea as to when they’re doing it. So why not advise the date or expected week as they did with SL ?
Point being.....if you were an oil exploration company in Mongolia, would you start drilling mid October with possibity of having to shut down the end of the month ?
So, the spud date should be in the next couple of days and why wouldn’t you announce it ?
Who gives a hoot what order they drill the wells .......important thing is they actually drill them.
Would have been great drilling 4 wells this year. But here we are last week Sept. waiting on a spud date - think they’d be able to give a date this late in the game.
What keeps momentum going and investors happy is actually doing what they said they would do !
“We will provide an update to the market once the well spuds”.
Surely they know the date of spud so why not announce it ? Otherwise, Sp going to keep drifting down.
What happened to bunch of posts deleted ?
“If there was people would know”
The only way anyone would know is if Petro Matad informs us.
As for the long posts of the Proselenes with partially winterized rigs and Shell waiting to farm in and the reason Block XX was delayed was due to a discovery at SL.......all is just someone making it up as he goes.
