i guess the company will be very close to spudding, once the rig is on location it doesnt take long to set up, 3-7 days.

Interesting times! Maybe we should get some action very soon...

The British bulls page doesn't know about SD-1 otherwise it may well be broadcasting a different message

Hey blue,is that all you can do is copy and paste

Anyone know someone near the Sd-1 location in Egypt, tell them to have a look if the drill rig has arrived.:-)

You have to remember that these producing assets were purchased at 60% discount, we are currently making profits daily out of them...4705 boepd is not bad income, this will be increased significantly this year..Imho

OrinocorStill not good enough, still undervalued. Needs to move further.

[orinocor] 08/3/2017 16:09

The market cap has risen £58M even from the 30p placing price that raised just £32M before costs. So the share price has already performed fantastically well to get to where it is. Worth remembering when everyone keeps insisting this stock is so undervalued.

[neo26] 08/3/2017 13:55

I think the company is worth 250m now if you look at future profits, starting with the current year of around $27m.Gla

[captain james t kirk] 08/3/2017 13:39

Just a small point on the $1 million expenditure.
That's the estimated figure for the deeper drill at S.Disouq - SD1 (7,300ft to 10,300ft) to test the oil prospect, over and above our full carry up to $3 million.
We will only be liable for our share of this amount (55%) around £450,000.

Rapid DaveIts going to be a "transformational" year for sdx regardless of the results of sd-1.If like you say after all the free cashflow and $20m in cash and receivable this falls to 30p then it time to double down or treble, that will be dirt cheap for a company making profits around $27m per annum..

Mr Moaaz is described in one of Paul Welch's interviews as the company's secret weapon....and the main reason that SDX have no particular problem getting paid in Egypt.....many others have struggled but as yet, SDX have ALWAYS been paid!...

Of course, it helps greatly that the proportion of money received in E£ is of less consequence when it can be used for in country development and costs....

A bit more on COP exit:

[bostonborn] 08/3/2017 12:10

Don't forget that when SDX bought out Circle Oil (on the cheap) they would have been "handed" lots of geophysical survey information, and that's why they are so confident of being successful with their South Disouq, soon to be spudded drilling.

Great post - thank you.

An old Centurion production update:


-04/01/2006 "El Wastani Production Lease

The El Wastani East 3 development well has reached total depth of 3,068 meters
and encountered 20 meters of net pay in the Upper and Lower Abu Madi Formations.
The well has been completed in the Upper Abu Madi and is currently being
produced through the El Wastani production facilities at a gas rate of 25
mmscfpd of gas plus natural gas liquids.

The El Wastani 11 development well reached total depth of 3,015 meters and
encountered 84 meters of net pay in the Upper and Lower Abu Madi and in the
Qawasim formations. The El Wastani 11 well was completed in the Qawasim
Formation and is currently being produced through the El Wastani production
facilities at a gas rate of 15 mmscfpd of gas plus natural gas liquids.

The El Wastani 10 development well has reached total depth of 2,952 meters and
has encountered 66 meters of net pay in the Upper and Lower Abu Madi formations.
The well has been completed in the Lower Abu Madi formation. The well is
currently being tied in and will be tested through the El Wastani production
facilities. Production is expected to commence shortly thereafter.

Current production from the El Wastani Production Lease is 180 mmscfpd of
natural gas and 6,500 bpd of natural gas liquids (36,500 boepd).

---------------------------------------------------------------->>

Its no wonder SDX are full of confidence re. South Disouq, look at the production potential of the Abu-Madi in Said Arrata's previous company Centurion and the El Wastani field:

-180mmscfpd

-6,500bpd condensate


That is simply huge, if they can hit targets as they expect. It is now wonder they are talking of mid-tier and 25-30,000boepd if its successful.

Exactly cash - forget the upcoming drilling (albeit that is a quite wonderful prospect) and concentrate on the current business and it is just too cheap.

It is throwing off cash....

I don't blame the company for what has happened. They needed to raise cash to get COPs assets on the cheap. They are a small company and thus probably could not tie funders in.

As for the company flipping the shares - I don't blame them either. That is the game they are in. Take part in placings and then move on quickly.

BUT - if SDX are successful with the drill bit, this will NEVER happen again.

So, overall, a bit of a surreal experience, but it is what it is. I am rather thankful personally as it has let me in at a great price...

Ramble over!

[cashandcard] 08/3/2017 09:18

4,700boepd and a marketcap less than a lifestyle outfit like PVR, only £30mln more than SOLO - I'm astonished at the level of discount here.

[soulsauce] 08/3/2017 09:12

Good to see the bounce, finally.

[deltrotter] 08/3/2017 09:09

On any metric, just way too cheap. The market will not allow that to happen for any prolonged period of time.
