Astute observations on the size of Shaikan last night JB , you must have been on the Fursty Ferret ;o)

[nestoframpers] 28/1/2023 09:13

Seems to me that a PSC for the district producing the oil would be a fair way out of this mess , Basra would then get a greater budget share. Locals do suffer because of the oil production and then there is more security needed.

“According to observers, the settlement of Iraq's complaint against Turkey will have a greater impact on relations between Iraq and Turkey and will not have much impact on the Kurdistan Region, as the region sells oil at cheaper prices without Iraq's consent.”

Drinking a few beers and had a thought......GKP is at the centre of KRG/US discussions because Shaikan is the worst kept secret in oil and gas e&p history.

The KRG have tried to downplay Shaikan for 14 years, but the many 'shadow players' know what we are dealing with here.

The biggest on shore field on earth......

High

Thanks. I agree about supply side security issues and a robust demand side which is such that many commentators expect the price of crude to rise this year. The difficult bit is the supply side in Iraq and who calls the shots, contracts, pipelines etc. Unraveling that will take a while and keep potential buyers biding their time..

negative rhetoric building up,must be close to showtime.

[highlander7] 27/1/2023 15:30

If Europe can no longer rely on Russia for oil or gas then they will have to get it elsewhere. Kurdistan is friendly towards the USA and the West in general. So friendly that the USA have a number of military and airbases there and it has a number of very large onshore oilfields with export pipelines to a sea port.

Pretty obvious I would have thought. With the Saudi's aligning with Putin and Biden putting pressure on the ICG for a deal with the Kurds.

IMO

[arcadian] 27/1/2023 14:49

Please develope that thesis.

[highlander7] 27/1/2023 14:44

That may have been true before Ukraine. Not now. Western economies have been severely damaged by relying on Russian Oil and Gas. They wont make that mistake again.

IMO

[arcadian] 27/1/2023 14:38

If accurate it is easy to see why they are not paying us and others presumably hoping that no payments will makes us more pliable, on top of which they are trying to agree a deal with Baghdad. There are still some here who believe that there are eager buyers wanting to step into this quagmire. Things will take a while yet to produce an attractive purchase but then again fortune favours the brave and the Chinese are buying more of their oil,ploughing in infrastructure etc, not to mention world needs and USA interests.

[highlander7] 27/1/2023 14:17

I wouldnt take it all literally. Media always likes to exaggerate the -ve's.

Barzani obviously has other markets for Kurdish Oil and the West now needs a new source of Oil and Gas.

The USA spent a lot of $'s getting rid of Saddam and ISIS. They will want payback.

Sit tight.

IMO

[releasethekraken] 27/1/2023 14:00

Should be ops and corporate update Monday IMO

Mortgaged future revenues......

[hangthedj] 27/1/2023 13:46

Thanks Nufc9, that's the most informed info I've read regarding the obvious financial troubles the KRG are having at the moment.
Looks a total mess but hopefully it can all be sorted out.

"But ruled in the Kurds favour instead."

Any professional, especially someone with a PhD working for the Washington Institute is not likely to be revealing any share price sensitive info on his twitter a/c. I think it is normal to release a judgement to the litigants involved before making it public.

Why do you think Dr Wahab, as member of the public, like us, has been told in advance of everyone else what the judgement is? What's in it for him to release this info in an unauthorised fashion on Twitter?
