Posted at 01/6/2017 08:26 by haroldthegreat That might have been a more pertinent explanation for the recent 66% share decline rather than his explanation of a major investor selling. it might be the reason for the investor selling .it is usually the questions that are more revealing than the presentations. It might explain why he wanted Chinese denominated debt rather than us ,the sales of his downstream investments and the proposed Hongkong float. |

Posted at 19/12/2013 14:53 by scrutable The youtube presentations in the previous post from the 46th Oil Barrel Conference in Sept deserve to be widely viewed. They make a compelling case for investors.After 12 years of experimentation on the brittle Chinese coal, GDG developed standard drilling into a successful proprietary technology LiFaBriC, and steadily improved the recovery of methane in China to commercially useful levels. At the same time CEO Randeep Grewal was experimenting with the business model. Originally just a gas producer, he has been developing vertical integration of the coal bed methane gas industry to reduce costs and improve margins. It helps that CBM is the only energy resource that China allows (and encourages) to be sold privately at market price. The company has been discarding assets not directly involved in producing and compressing the gas to CNG (compressed natural gas) at a cost of $2.0/mcf and selling at $17.6.0/mcf to end users - especially taxis and buses via company owned retail gas stations. Already distributing to fleet owners midstream, GDG has developed its own retail gas stations, installed and operated 5 by end 2012 and will have 8 by end 2013. A further 26 are under construction. The indigenous companies are getting very low yields from their mainly vertical wells and are failing to reach anywhere near the targets set for them by the Chinese State. GDG has made 2013 the year of trial.For 9 months or so LiFaBriC wells have been under test at all four of the major state owned O&G behemoths. Trials have so far gone well. There is scope for an explosion in the number of contracts won by GDL the associated drilling company. Meanwhile GDG awaits the outcome of two spats: the litigation with Philips Conoco and thethe compensation from the piratical 1500 wells drilled on GDG leases. There are thus three or four major upside possibilities in 2014 for those with an appetite for risk and high reward. |
Posted at 25/11/2013 16:42 by wiseacre you pays your money and you takes your choice but not for me sunny. I wouldn't trust RG further than I could throw him! i can't understand your interest. You say you are not an investor. I too have connections in China and what i have heard about this company does not smell good. I certainly do not have confidence in the alleged agreement. |

Posted at 16/10/2013 14:44 by wiseacre On the 4th October I published an explosive dossier on Green Dragon Gas (GDG) which contained photos of environmental destruction and bloodied Chinese villagers. The company had been passed the dossier 5 days earlier for comment and its spokesman (Mr Philip Dennis of uber expensive PR firm Bell Pottinger) promised a response on 4th October. There has been no comment.You can read that article HERE Green Dragon - a perennial loss maker kept going only by rounds of financings - did issue a release on 8th October which it headlined "significant drilling development." Hmmmm it was actually a bit confusing and only left me wondering exactly how the Chinese system of title actually works. Critic ally the company concluded that it was, on the pretext of analysing new data, suspending aggressive drilling. I say "Noodles to you" Green Dragon. The reason Green Dragon is curtailing aggressive drilling is that it has a bit of a cash issue. Cash at 20th June was $20.7 million. In the first half the operating loss was $8.3 million while exploration costs (that would be aggressive drilling) were $21 million. Do your maths there is a very good reason capex has been curtailed: Green Dragon cannot afford to fund it. At some stage very soon Green Dragon will be trying to raise fresh funds to keep the show on the road. At 264p the market capitalisation is a totally unjustifiable £360 million: remember this company has racked up loss after loss for 5 years and is running out of cash. AND IT REFUSES TO COMMENT AS IT PROMISED IT WOULD ON THE DOSSIER BELOW. Come on Green Dragon, come on Bell Pottinger why the silence? Should we assume that all the allegations in the shocking dossier are true since you have declined to comment on this once having had more than two weeks to do so? Over to you Why do I mention Greka Drilling (GDL)? Simply because: a) it shares the same CEO with Green Dragon b) right now almost all if not all of its business comes from Green Dragon. It strikes me that if as at October 1 Green Dragon has - and I quote "suspended aggressive drilling" that is a fact that Greka should be flagging with investors. Instead in its trading statement issued today it blathers on about metrics in the three months to 30th September (which seems to show a Q on Q decline in metres drilled) and then says that expectations for the fourth quarter are unchanged. Go figure surely that cannot be the case. It is not as if there could be any miscommunication between the two companies as they share a CEO, Nomad, broker and PR firm. How cosy. Now about that dossier...chaps either with your Green Dragon or your Greka hat on would you care to comment yet? In case you have lost the link: - See more at: |
Posted at 08/10/2013 09:16 by stockologist http://www.moneyweekWhy I don't buy Chinese stocks on AIM By Tom Bulford Sep 18, 2012 Greg Rudd, the brother of the former Australian prime minister, once met a Chinese businessman who gave him some prudent advice. "You tend to see the good in people, Mr Rudd", he started. "People like you. You laugh a lot. But you'll never make money in China with that attitude. You'll only be taken advantage of. People will trade off you. They won't pay you. The number one rule of doing business in China is this; never trust a Chinaman. Why would you as a foreigner trust a Chinese businessman when we as Chinese don't trust each other?" Now that advice is pretty close to the bone. But I've said it before in Penny Sleuth you have to be very careful when you invest in a Chinese company. The record of AIM-listed Chinese companies is simply awful. And with so many still coming to market, there is a real chance that many private investors will end up making some very expensive mistakes... |
Posted at 08/10/2013 09:03 by scrutable Tuesday 08 October, 2013Green Dragon Gas Ltd Significant Drilling Development RNS Number : 9741P Green Dragon Gas Ltd 08 October 2013 8 October 2013 GREEN DRAGON GAS LTD ("Green Dragon" or the "Company") Significant Drilling Development Green Dragon Gas Ltd. (AIM: GDG), one of the largest independent companies involved in the production and sale of CBM gas in China, is pleased to announce that following the reissue of the licences in July 2013, the Company has discovered that a number of wells were drilled on five of its six PSC blocks pre July 2013 by a number of Chinese CBM gas companies (the PSC in Guizhou was not the subject of such drilling). As stated in the Company's announcement on 10 July 2013, the Chinese government has reissued the licences covering the Shizhuang North (Shanxi), Qinyuan (Shanxi), Fengcheng (Jiangxi) and Panxie (Anhui) exploration blocks, as well as the commercial production block Shizhuang South (Shanxi). The Company believes that revenue and reserves from the wells drilled by these companies will accrue to the benefit of Green Dragon. The Company has been in continuous dialogue with the PRC Government and its controlled entities China National Offshore Oil (CNOOC), CNPC, PetroChina and China United Coalbed Methane Corporation (CUCBM) regarding their drilling activities across the Company's PSC blocks. Through such communications, it has been revealed that these companies drilled a total of c. 1,500 wells across these blocks. The Company has requested from these entities, as well as from the Ministry of Land and Resources, all information pertaining to these wells. Of the c. 1,500 wells drilled, it is estimated that c.1,300 have been drilled across the Company's Shizhuang South PSC (GSS), whilst the others have been drilled on the four other exploration blocks. The Company has been informed that capital expenditure on these 1,500 wells exceeds US$500 million. Once the Company is in receipt of the information requested, in accordance with its annual practice, an independent evaluation of the material accretive impact to the 1P, 2P and 3P reserves will be conducted and the results disclosed. The invested capital will also be audited and may be subject to the terms of the PSCs for cost recovery. The Company's licences on the impacted five PSC's cover an area of 6,620 sq km and its operational focus has been to concentrate on proving up certain distinct areas of these licences. Consequently, the information about the scale of these third party wells only came to light as a result of the reissue of the licences and the subsequent on-going dialogue. Randeep S. Grewal, Chairman and Founder of Green Dragon, commented: "Our compliance with the contractual terms and adherence to Chinese law and confidence in the Central Government was boosted by the re-issuance of the exploration licenses in July 2013. Significantly, these licences were backdated to account for the continuous period of the PSCs, re-confirming that they were indeed in full force and effect. We have been steadfast in this position since inception. However, we have been over-whelmed by the discovery of the number of the wells drilled. Whilst we had previously given notice of PSC violations to CUCBM for the wells they drilled on Green Dragon's blocks, we were unaware of the extent of their actual activity as well as that of CNOOC, CNPC and PetroChina. Our field teams are diligent in the concentrated areas where we explore, develop, produce and sell the CBM in accordance with the terms of our PSCs. It is impossible to be vigilant over the entire 6,620 sq km (1,635,837 acres) of licence area. Once all the information is received as required by the re issuance of these licences, we will quantify the effect on our production, reserve progression and revenue. We expect the accretive impact to be material in each of these categories. Furthermore, until such information is ascertained, we will prudently suspend any aggressive drilling campaign or related financings, so as to absorb all of this material information. Additionally, our experienced technical staff will also account for the well type drilled in these campaigns and we will adjust our efficient and proven LiFaBriC wells patterns to accommodate the findings. We are committed to amicably concluding the material impact within our PSC areas in various aspects and look forward to capitalizing on this accelerated development to significant commerciality. However, we stand ready to enforce our PSC rights in the event there is any procrastination on such a mutually beneficial conclusion."

A total of 33km of well gas gathering pipelines are installed at GSS and operated by GET -- GET added 14 additional third party customers for its various products during the 1H 2013, a 21% increase over the year end of 2012 and now has 90 external customers -- Demerger of GET aimed at maximizing potential of this business and shareholder value OUTLOOK -- GET dividend in specie planned for 30 September 2013 -- Conclude financing for capex to execute the 18Bcf annual gas production exit target for 2014 -- Continue reserve progression and production within all six CBM blocks with specific attention to GSS Commenting, Randeep S. Grewal, Chairman and CEO of Green Dragon Gas, said: "The significant increase in revenue is a reflection of many years hard work and the Company's successfully transformation from exploration to production, revenues and cashflows. It is also a function of our successful strategy of streamlining the business to focus increasingly on pure upstream operations. In view of the significant funds spent over the last decade across our six blocks, we have been committed to protecting the shareholders interest in our entitlements within our bi-lateral PSC's, which form the material assets of the Company. As confirmed by us repeatedly, our six PSC's continue in full force and effect.Questions raised over the Company's title to its PSC's have been an unwelcome distraction for both management and investors over the last few years. It has also had a significant impact on the Company's valuation which dropped by approximately US$1 billion and remains well below the levels seen prior to these concerns arising, despite significant operational progress having been made in that time. We welcome and look forward to refocusing our efforts on growing the business to our targeted 18Bcfpy gas production and market attention returning to the significant value we believe is inherent within the business." |
