Gulf Keystone Petroleum Share Discussion Threads

That's interesting as there were rumours floating around the City that the company were looking at the possibility of acquiring licences elsewhere.

It's clear and has been for a very long time that the company should have been spending huge amounts of money ramping up their only asset which they'd neglected since the restructure 31 months ago.

Are we to conclude that they don't really believe the asset is that good? Or that relations with the hosts are that poor that there was no point in spending? Are there any clues in that it takes an age to get anything through the MNR, like the PSC amendment for instance. There does appear to be a great reluctance to get on with what's required n'est ce pas.

In respect of the working interest isn't it strange that only the view from Trevanian gets posted here whereas the correct view as made by MikeyT21 doesn't? The lengths posters go to just to try and get more suckers to help them out with their losses:-) Fake news and all that.

I too know that the company was looking at another deal last year - not in the Kurdistan area of Iraq, in fact not in the ME.

I'm surprised you hadn't heard of that, HabscamScot.

Lots of stuff you don't pick up in your echo chamber...

Good evening macfly!

"If the imbeciles had bothered to read my posts they would of read that the company were looking at other assets OUTSIDE Kurdistan last year."

Can you put up the post numbers Oilman so we can have another look at them.

And it's would have, not would of.

If the imbeciles had bothered to read my posts they would of read that the company were looking at other assets OUTSIDE Kurdistan last year.

I wonder if that was the reason Kim was taken on ???

It's amazing what Bob doesn't know !!!

XxxxZXTrevanian on iii . . .I must correct you Mikey.The current WI is absolutely 80%.Reference slide 19 of the June corporate presentation where GKP confirmed that the talks had evolved form the original agreement from the March H of T agreement(58% et cetera)====From IR 16th January 2019:-"GKP now has an 80% working interest in Shaikan, as per the Shaikan PSC executed in 2007. Discussions which could lead to a PSC amendment continue and GKP will inform the market in due course. As previously communicated, if the PSC is amended, it is expected to be at least neutral to the company."=====+The 58% is therefore not valid , and the company clearly communicated this change, and have said 80% in the most recent presentation, and if there was to be any PSC change it would be value neutral to them at worst..So a FDP signature would take 80% of current 2C into 2P , meaning at worst case reserves are 800m 2P.Peel Hunt continue to use the invalid 58% figure in generating a core NAV, and I understand the BOD have been clearly advised that this continued misrepresentation needs immediate correction.We will see either a major JV or a sale, as it is simply not credible that almost 3 years have elapsed in negotiations an evolved PSC.I found the presentation very disappointing, as it did not address any key commercial matters of interest.Perhaps this is understandable however. Jon Ferrier was clearly discomforted when the issue of Chinese analysis was raised. Perhaps that was understandable too!

You're the one who must be crackers - read it again...

Broadford Bay. If you think a high-flier like Kimberley Wood would put her career on hold just to create some window-dressing for any company, let alone a mid-division player such as GKP, you must be crackers.
