Is this what by are doing with the TROC in the Columbus basin
HH great video
The channel between Venezuela and Trinidad is called,Columbus Channel,so that's where he got the name from,not the drilling rig,new discovery in the channel?

We will go together like bread and butter With cash drying up, PDVSA is also struggling to import lighter fuels that are necessary to blend with the country’s heavy oil. Some ships are sitting off the Venezuelan coast because of unpaid bills. Meanwhile, because of obligations to creditors, PDVSA is sending crude abroad, leaving little for domestic refining.
Oil properties are important to technical and economic success of a waterflood. The key oil properties are viscosity and density at reservoir conditions. In a porous medium, the mobility of a fluid is defined as its endpoint relative permeability divided by its viscosity; hence, a fluid with a low viscosity (≤ 1 cp) has a high mobility unless its relative permeability is very low. Similarly, a low-API crude oil (≤ 20°API) has a high viscosity and a very low mobility unless it is heated to high temperatures. Because water’s viscosity at reservoir temperatures generally is much lower than or, at best, equal to that of the reservoir oil, the water-/oil-viscosity ratio is generally much greater than 1:1. The water-/oil-mobility ratio is a key parameter in determining the efficiency of the water/oil displacement process, with the recovery efficiency increasing as the water-/oil-mobility ratio decreases.
The high api will be beneficial when waterflood takes place,a lighter oil should move easier with out the need for steam or additives,just plain old water
Gordon stein was at moil until oct 2016,Stewart Ahmed was there until Nov 2016,so chief finance and reservoir expert plus the drive of Leo koot,game on
I quoted the Middle East,because lots of the worlds oil comes from there and is very high sulphur,trinny oil is a sweet light crude,as is UK onshore find in the Weald,38 to 40 api,and the diesel at the pump is advertised as low sulphur maybe because it's got home grown oil in it or the fact that for the last 25 years refineries have been adding cooking oil to the mix,I bumped in a waste oil collector and as I was interested at the time in cooking oil asked if he was making bio diesel and he told it goes straight to the refinery and he had been collecting it for the last twenty years,that was 5 years ago
Also the high sulphur content that is the big problem is present in middle east oil
Yes Vmax I agree,the biggest diference now is the guy will hopefully be on site,or at least on the island
JP,have to wait and see,but goudron was only doing 30bopd And bruv,I ran a diesel on soya bean oil for 4 years when diesel was 1.45 and veg oil was .50 so how do you know what you can run a diesel on,after all they were designed to run on peanut oil
Thats where he has got the new name from,I like his style
I think he columbus is going to rediscover bonasse and we will see a simular upside that we saw at goudron in the beginning,don't forget the company has only just got sorted as far as the noose that was around our neck and I am so glad we are not drilling 45 bopd wells for half a million dollars
NR was going for longevity of wells,different tactics now and oil price has doubled in the last 15 months,but it's only steadied the last couple of months,timing is right
Icacos is another possibility,touchstone have said they are looking at listing on aim this year,but I have had no reply to my email on that subject,but there are lots of private licenses in the SW and NR did hold signing of because some paperwork wasn't in place,lots going on in trinny
Could be the 15 deep wells,they were earmarked for EOR,but I think bonasse is going to a good low cost earner,goudron went from 30 bopd to 500 bopd in first year,so that could be first choice,but I hope we start on at least two fronts,bonasse and pilot waterflood because if we could have kept the pressure up in the deep wells that would have been transformational,but Ahmed sounds like the right type of guy to have over there and koots has the drive and connections to push this on

Pete,I like the logic,going to go to my local chippy tomorrow and tell them I am not going to buy any chips and will eat at the local restaurant instead
