14th of August is the date then Urals. Buyer not concerned no FDP, Oil Law, CPR?

Are you building in an extension of 10 years to cover a Gulfexit scenario?

Anyway 3 weeks maxto discover if it's a saleIf it isn't its a 5%+dividendNice choicesNo the reason the Co is almost certainly sold is that, they are buying only as shares in treasury are required now to satisfy vesting staff share options.of course none can vest for 18 months plus unless its sold. The buyback needing 2 brokers pretty much confirms it. 3 wk hold is very little time to find out.

Broadford, who is bothered about personnel? If the reason the Co is almost certainly sold is that, they are buying only as shares in treasury are required now to satisfy vesting staff share options.of course none can vest for 18 months plus unless its sold. The buyback needing 2 brokers pretty much confirms it. 3 wk hold is very little time to find out.

Why did 42,175,140 (30% of votes cast) vote against Garrett Soden (non-exec) at the AGM on 21st June?

Whose toes did he tread on?

Sami's departure was announced on 3rd June.

How are these two events connected?

Dig and ye shall find...

Is stabilisation the new ringfencing?

So it's a takeaway or a 5% dividend now then?

So they need two brokers to protect the SP? It gets even funnier.

And a sale is only 2 to 3 weeks away?

Is this the imminent sale that's been predicted for 5 years or a new one?

And that's why Sami's services are no longer required?

LOFL several times.

Btw, how's the new well going, they're real quiet about that, issues?

[bigdog5] 24/7/2019 16:23

Is it still the belief that Sami is on his bike because the company is sold, LOFL.

Then there's the surry idiot tying himself up in knots with his arguments lol. He hasn't got any better in that dept but his ludicrous posts are even more hilarious than years ago.

I'm hearing some real funny stuff from the City drums as regards budgets and barrels:-)

And a NOBRAINER , either it is in progress and will be announced within 3 wks max, hence this ongoing stabilisation, or it isn't, and a 5% dividend lands instead. Very little to be found not too like. "Co explained absolutely clearly:They will only buy and put shares in Treasury NOW if they are REQUIRED to satisfy the vesting of staff share option plans. Reading the share option plans rules,not one can vest until Feb 2021.....UNLESS the Co is sold before,when at least 50% IMMEDIATELY vest. Price stabilisation Cannacord and Peel hunt are currently providing also protects minority holders as Co are legally required to not disadvantage minorities.Because the premium could be very large indeed2 brokers needed to buyback shares? Really?!No, but 2 are definitely required to protect the price in market , until Sale announced, which is likely only days or a 2/3 weeks off.FD departure without reason in public, but obviously on good leaver basis, stands with a sale too, job now done, he needs to handover to Bean counters, which will take a couple of months at most."

No imminent takeaway then Chinese, what's holding it up?

Have the KRG agreed to provide Baghdad with the 250k barrels a day yet? If they haven't what is the likely outcome:-)

[bigdog5] 24/7/2019 14:01

Am I to understand that there are certain posters both here and on other bb's that believe the Cfo was sacked?

Oh dear but you're all wrong again. Waste of money on buyback's that will achieve now't will be one of the main reasons n'est ce pas.

Well welshki, it was a £10 estimate ranging upwards into blue sky possibilities, nothing modelled at the time. It was pure growth.. Back then the understanding was that Shaikan was filled to spill, OWC was well below depth estimates, the other blocs were ontrend and apparently they never drilled a dry hole. Then the stunning fracture system, good field pressure, oil price at $90-110,and majors swooping for the biggest find.

Unlike you welshki, it was when the CPR came out that I took stock of the nonsensical claims of what Gulf had supposedly discovered, that I initially trusted them. Taken for a ride. I no longer had any such figure after that and that's why the difference between us now is this is indeed fun and chit chat for me, but Life and Savings and creating faceless avatar ramps for you.

GKP is in demand in the city.

A little bird told me.

[urals] 24/7/2019 11:58

Regarding GKP Chinese, the company explained absolutely clearly:They will only buy and put shares in Treasury NOW if they are REQUIRED to satisfy the vesting of staff share option plans.

Yes, it looked like a Carroll avatar at first, but the post removed and the sheer arrogance when CCC was not online is straight from Bobs MO. Surreyclot jumping in another tell tale sign. So 15/8 it's Bob, 3/1 Carroll, 5/1 Surreyclot talking to himself or for the eachway bet Wildrider at 10/1.
Of course you do have the scenario where Bobs using someone else's avatar which he has form for.

The stability of the market is remarkable. With bollingers sharpening tight. Don't do tech analysis personally but certainly try to learn from data. Data so far from 8/7 launch of Buyback program certainly points towards stabilisation, and the empirical evidence backs that up.Certainly 3 weeks on, if no corporate event, that's not the case.Up until then the evidence equals Co instructed price stabilisation.So agree, so far! https://twitter.com/Paul47293202/status/1153929945762140162?s=19
