14/7/2019 19:34 | Heavy crude is selling at a premium?! Is it really that hard to Google some basic facts like crude oil prices? For someone who spends their life in front of the computer, that's the kind of productivity they demonstrate?.. no wonder some people are unemployable.. Repeat, parrot. Lol | ![]() j0sekl | |
14/7/2019 18:42 | Thanks nestoframpers, very interesting. It's a little out of date in my view, as the company WI is larger at 80%, POO lower, but heavy grades like Shaikan, selling at a premium. If the company sells it will essentially be at a $/boe of?? $8-12 perhaps? A sale would then north of £15."You are correct that, using the recovery rates that are frequently discussed, one gets a range of estimated recoverable oil attributable to GKP that centres around 1.88 billion barrels. This would imply recoverable oil in the field as a whole of around 3.5 billion bbls. Interestingly enough, this is also consistent with GKP's own long term production target of around 400,000 bbls/day.My own view, for what it's worth, is that this would be a great outcome, and it is also very achievable from a technical standpoint if nature is not unkind to us.However, I fear that the appropriate value to apply to those 1.88 billion bbls is not $20/bbl. The reason is not lifting costs, but rather the terms of the production-sharing contract (PSC). Bear in mind that if you have reserves in the US, you will probably be paying some royalties to the land owner and perhaps others, and your lifting costs may be higher, but all the oil is yours. You just have to pay the royalties and lifting costs, and then pay normal US taxes (after deducting your exploration and development costs). So with oil around $100 per barrel, it is easy to see how your netback at the wellhead, after all costs and taxes, can be well in excess of $30/bbl.But in Kurdistan the oil belongs to the government (whether the KRG or Iraqi) and GKP gets paid via a PSC where its share is around 30% until costs are recovered twice over (the so-called R-factor) after which it falls to around 15%. And this is after a 10% royalty to the KRG off the top. The costs of exploration and development, large as they are, should be recovered quite quickly (and those costs would need to be factored into a net present value calculation anyway). So the value of most of the production to GKP, after cost recovery and assuming those low lifting costs, is likely to be around $12-13/bbl assuming a $100/bbl oil price.GKP then has to pay a 40% "infrastructure payment" to the KRG, reducing its net receipt to around $8/bbl, in the $100/bbl oil price world.Things are much the same for Genel. Their infrastructure payment commitment is only 30%, but their PSC terms are otherwise generally similar. This is why, as I recall, they have said that in the current price environment they expect a long term realisation in the range of $9/bbl; and this is why the valuation used in the original Genel merger was between $5-6/bbl -- allowing for the net present value aspect. I think a similar value was ascribed to Addax's interest in TaqTaq at the time Addax was bought by the Chinese. So even though GKP's terms may not be quite as good as Genel's, I think this is probably a good place to start thinking about Shaikan's value.This would still value GKP's interest in Shaikan in the region of $10 billion based on $100/bbl oil, if the expected recovery factor and export economics can be proved up. This is still pretty good!Cheers, TM"X | ![]() chinese_takeaway | |
14/7/2019 18:27 | Leaving aside the Heavy vs Light discount/premium issue don't forget that trading Kurdish Crude still involves an element of "Distressed Seller" pricing - as the selling by KRG/MNR of crude oil transported thru a pipeline which is still subject to a Sovereign Agreement between Iraq & Turkey is still not regarded as completely legal. Still selling at ca 20% discount to Brent... | ![]() broadford bay | |

All the figures from years ago cannot now be used as everything has altered. The evidence of that is clear to see. Both the amount of barrels and fractures are no longer valid.

If you want to come along as well I'm sure I can get you a signed copy of his wife's latest book 😃 Jeremy Asher CV. Born in London in 1958, Asher attended Winchester College, and went on to earn a BSc (Econ) degree at the London School of Economics, then an MBA from Harvard Business School,[1] which he received with high distinction in 1981, also being designated a Baker Scholar.[3] Career Edit He joined Washington D.C.-based Strategic Planning Associates (later Mercer Management Consulting, ultimately merged into Oliver Wyman in 2007) as a consultant while still at Harvard, in 1980, and rose to become a manager before leaving in 1984. He then joined multinational commodity trader Marc Rich + Co AG (today Glencore), and by the time of his departure in 1989 had become global co-head of Global Oil Products there.[1] In 1989, he and a partner acquired the Beta oil refinery in Wilhelmshaven, West Germany, which he developed as one of its managing directors and subsequently sold.[4] He remained on the supervisory board at Beta Raffineriegesellscha In 1998, Asher became group chief executive for PA Consulting Group, based in London.[1] During his time there, PA globalised and grew from 2,500 to just under 4,000 staff.[3] He negotiated PA's acquisition of American-based multinational rival Hagler Bailly Inc. for about $96 million in cash in 2000,[5] and managed the two firms' integration.[3] He left this role in 2001, when he became chairman of SkyVision Holdings Ltd. In 2005, he founded Agile Energy Ltd, an energy investment company, where he took up the post of chairman, which he retains today. Since founding Agile, he has also sat on the boards of various other firms, including Process Systems Enterprise Ltd (between 2003 and 2008), and Gulf Keystone Petroleum (until June 2014) and Better Place LLC (both between 2008 and 2010).[1] He served again on the board of Gulf Keystone Petroleum in 2013-2014. In addition to his role at Agile, he joined the board of Tower Resources plc, an oil and gas exploration company listed on London's Alternative Investment Market (AIM), in 2007, and became chairman in 2011.[6] Today, Asher is chairman at Agile and Tower, a director on the boards of Better Place and Pacific Drilling SA,[1] and an advisor to Bazan Group (also known as Oil Refineries Ltd.) in Haifa, Israel. He is also a member of London Business School's global advisory council and the Engineering Advisory Board of Imperial Innovations plc, Imperial College London's commercial arm, which is listed on the AIM.[7] | ![]() mcfly02 | |

Russia will continue to develop ‘fulfilling relations’ with new KRG government: Spokesperson Kurdistan 24 Kurdistan 24 | 16 كات Share share Russia will continue to develop ‘fulfilling relations’ with new KRG government: Spokesperson Spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, Maria Zakharova, during a weekly press conference in Moscow, Russia, July 11, 2019. (Photo: Kurdistan 24) Kurdistan KRG Russia Masrour Barzani Kurdistan Region A+AA- ERBIL (Kurdistan 24) – A spokesperson for the Russian foreign ministry said Moscow would continue to improve its relationship with the Kurdistan Region following the formation of a new Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) cabinet. Addressing reporters at a news conference on Thursday, Spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, Maria Zakharova, said her country hopes to have “friendly and fulfilling relations” with the new KRG. “Beyond a doubt, we will develop them [bilateral ties],” Zakharova said, adding the relations between Erbil and Moscow “are based on mutual respect.” The spokesperson noted that Russia traditionally has economic interests with the Kurdistan Region, especially in the oil and energy sector. She said the development of these economic ties would help Russia “develop further our friendly relations, and to do that for mutual benefit.” | beernut | |
