The people promoting this company don’t seem to have their facts straight. The headline figure of “a few billion barrels” refers to a combined estimate spread across roughly 50–100 offshore prospects. What actually matters is the size of each individual prospect — and the largest of these is around 400 million barrels. That’s the only number that’s truly relevant.
Even at that size, it’s highly unlikely the asset would attract a farm-out partner, given the significant cost of drilling offshore wells. There’s no infrastructure in place, the acreage is in deep water, and unless the core geology turns out to be exceptional, this looks more like promotional noise ahead of yet another placing rather than a viable development opportunity.
Management’s track record in the small-cap space also raises serious concerns, ranking among the weakest in the sector.
