Rock on Sonic

That 63 million trade was done weeks ago. It’s taking a while to get it out. Could have been a buy or a sell but as we could all see once it was out the price went up. Should only move north now.

ISA date this coming Friday.

Think we are now ready!

The herd will arrive next week so hold onto golden tickets.

"maybe holding out as long as they could"

Forced into sub-1p selling of 63m just a matter of a few trading hours before the anticipated transformational rig-on-the-move announcement? Pull the other one.

Nice one Vatna. Keep it up please.

[ileeman] 31/3/2018 11:12

I expect late April/early May, but a few weeks into May is good as share price has time to build.

The Zhi Yuan Kou arrived at Abu Dhabi at 08:48LT, 4 hours ahead of ETA. She was immediately attended by two supply ships / tugs. It will probably take about 2-3 days (my guess) to load and prepare for the journey.

RNS on Wednesday?

I'm sure they will be able to get the rig on location before the end of April, but whether they can spud in April is another matter. I suspect that will run into May.

We may have timed this very well.

[sherl0ck] 31/3/2018 10:09

The 63m was possibly a necessary sell executed to liquidate a position on the last working day of the quarter/financial year. If so, it may be a broker offloading placing shares they’d hoped to profit from based on the original drilling timescales. It might not be a coincidence that Novum briefly operated as a market maker for us.... maybe holding out as long as they could before finally taking a £16k hit on their investment? (This is pure speculation rather than an established fact).

Ps - Sutton can’t be promoted to Production Mgr as he no longer works for us. (This is an established fact rather than pure speculation).

April should be an interesting month and that big batch of trades surely been the reason the price had been stuck at below a penny for months.Bring it on.

[htrocka2] 31/3/2018 09:12

'There's a surprise.'

just an 'off the cuff' comment..... a poster , I can't remember who, quoted the company as saying that they would try and drill in April and beat the July deadline'

The point being that the 'July deadline', was a direct reference to the 'leaked' article. So presumably the company may well have been involved with and acknowledged its existence, hence, was an authorised company 'leak'.

$2billion sell off imminent or the main spanner for the rig has been mislaid in the game of hide and seek with shareholders ?

[dr rosso] 31/3/2018 08:46

Assume an HLV is bearing down on Force mysteriously located somewhere offshore UAE. Going to be a bit of a struggle to get loaded up and setting sail before April 6. There's a surprise.

Minus trades are quite common. Just as buys are often shown as sells, they can be quite deceptive. Note that the 3 trades in question all went through at the same exact second. Need pdq fingers to pull off a 2nd trade, not to mention a 2nd correction, all within the blink of an eye. The minus trade may be reported as a deletion, a fat-finger mistake. Look around, and you'll see several. In some cases they are cancellations, in other cases not. The figures do, of course add up. An illustration; 15 + 600 - 600 + 60 + 7 + 10 = 92.
Somebody shifted 600m at the required sub-1p price yesterday.

[dr rosso] 31/3/2018 08:16

LOL. The Co. stooge makes a rare appearance. Btw, my predictions for spudding are pretty much on par with those of the real CEO. Since first mentioned in Jan 2012 rns, the Lucanesque disappearing act has been that of the elusive rig, notwithstanding the persistent Q1, H1, etc claims of the conjuror-in-chief.

"to provide the appropriate oil services for the drilling operations on the field, including the procurement of a drilling rig slot for the second half of 2012."

One hopes that the latest instalment in the series is not another illusion.

i'm with sonic's way of thinking here i rekon any buying from the start next week will now see this head north. its like a coiled spring

[dr rosso] 30/3/2018 23:03

Think you might find that 17% of the Co. has just changed hands ahead of an event. Add this switch to the supposed "selling" of the last week or so, and it takes it up to 20%. So who has taken a 20% stake? Schlumberger Nigeria?

[bidmoll] 30/3/2018 20:11

It says volume for the day of 75,219,623.

[ileeman] 30/3/2018 20:10

Dr Rosso

Just think it was a mistake so they cancelled it and reprinted 63million, not that it matters too much both huge trades either way you look at it.

Just to note seems more people are clocking onto SRSP, other chat boards and twitter getting busy...as you would expect coming into April drill, big things ahead.

[bidmoll] 30/3/2018 20:06

It says "cancelled"

[dr rosso] 30/3/2018 20:04

Minus is not necessarily a cancellation

[bidmoll] 30/3/2018 19:48

Look on the London Stock Exchange website. The trade was cancelled
