Henry,
It's when petrofec are finished with the rig
we wanted to use as are initial option?
Henry
What is the rig we are using then??
Can you post a official document of it??

[michaelwhight] 10/9/2018 17:37

18th was actually my fault. There was a document which states Petrofac have contracted Ensco 72 from April 18- September 18. It refers to the year of course. We could be using a different rig of course. I think 121 was mentioned. Best to just sit back and wait now imo.

Still going on about the 18th.

18th of September isn’t on any official document. If so, post the link.

Research will show the named rig that will be used, and where it is sitting right now.

Truly
Not really still time .
But I would imagine the rig we wanted
which is available on the 18th should
give us a clue if it is that rig ,or
maybe they have other plans, ...

If they haven't hired a rig yet they may be pushed for time to get drilling started this month.

[shares188] 10/9/2018 16:15

Truly,
Have they hired it then?
Are there not inspections to be completed first?

[trulyscrumptious] 10/9/2018 16:13

What do you mean a few weeks before hiring rig? We are a third of the way through September, if they haven't hired a rig yet...

[shares188] 10/9/2018 16:10

A few weeks before drilling and hiring RIG
and this is in slow motion...
You guys were right my target was way too
high, I've revised it 5p before drill....

[soulsauce] 10/9/2018 12:37

They aren't going to flow test Argyle.

From Amnesic on lse B.B. (thanks Amnesic) Activity at Wick well...

RE: Survey
While the well's target zone is a few hundred metres below the surface will be fixed and was decided months ago from the 3D seismic, there is much greater tolerance in the rig location at the surface The drilling is directional and does not have to be a true vertical. Indeed, it was originally feasible to perform this drill from onshore.

This activity looks like the "requirement for a more comprehensive seabed survey" raised back in May. Especially given the route of GEO Ocean III, sweeping the Wick prospect area twice in the last 20 hours and coming to rest directly over the proposed well location.

See my tweet for chart of the route superimposed on the block...


I imagine this to be quick to perform and analyse. Checking the seabed terrain and composition for a suitable stable position to site the rig and jacket. Also checking for obstacles (wrecks, pipes, cables, etc) to ensure the rig and supporting vessel operations do not cause issue with them. Some examples of the company work/services can be seen at hxxps://www.geoxyzoffshore.com and the parent site hxxp://www.geoxyz.eu

There was an interesting diversion overnight, further towards Wick. Optimistically, I'd like to think they're evaluating possible flowline routes. That would be a sign of confidence! :o) But it's probably something more mundane.

Ever nearer! Getting exciting! GLA

My 250k should show at 12:26 1 hour delayed, that trade at 4.09 is difficult to say if it is a buy or sell

[rovi70] 10/9/2018 12:00

vrs I did say!

[argyle underclap] 10/9/2018 11:50

Looks like a few sells into strength. That’s a great option for us all to have as there should be continued strength going forward with Wick and Tunisia now looming very large indeed. Holding tightly to mine tho, just like Dr S and the rest!

[tburns] 10/9/2018 11:40

Just added 250k at 4p, tried to get another and won't let me, maybe it is turning back North from here, GLA

[rovi70] 10/9/2018 11:15

just topped up. sadly before the drop, opps!

[doughty] 10/9/2018 11:11

...post deleted...was incorrect !

[poppet123] 10/9/2018 10:40

Good morning Tiger.we are still on holiday, so only look in here on a rare occasion.best of luck all. P

[hulltiger] 10/9/2018 09:40

Good morning Michael, very true but once again against a backdrop of selling. I am in for more this morning but holding fire to see if more sellers are about.

[michaelwhight] 10/9/2018 09:27

All the action seems to be with BOIL this morning. Curious that we are not seeing the same excitement here, albeit that there is good buying this morning.

[hulltiger] 10/9/2018 09:22

Good morning all, very quiet on these BBs this morning.

[rovi70] 09/9/2018 11:56

vrs might be an interesting find

[doughty] 09/9/2018 09:47

...the Geo Ocean iii appears to be at the drill site...you can easily find it on the "marine traffic" app

[doughty] 09/9/2018 09:38

Having a quick catch up...I see the shorters are here !...always a good sign..."Wow what a drop today. It doesn't look like this will be going over 4p pre spud"Lots of good stuff on twitter re vessel movement...part of Wick cost overrun was for an enhanced seabed survey...I think that may be being carried out now !

[2prsimo] 07/9/2018 16:38

Makes all the difference chart-wise too - good weekend all
