AAOG, UKOG, SAVP and RBD

News today from Anglo African Oil & Gas (AAOG) announcing the finalisation of a contract with Schlumberger to supply support services for the drilling of the new TLP-103 well, the completion of the workover of the TLP-101 well and the bringing forward of the workover of the TLP-102 well so that it will be completed by early April.  To me it seems clear that they will announce the placing then, hoping that the workovers will this time have resulted in a meaningful increase in production.

UK Oil & Gas Investments (UKOG) slipped out news on Friday afternoon of another convertible loan conversion, this time at 1.42p per share.  There is still £5.25 million outstanding, so based upon the decline to date, the share price should be well under 1p by the time the loan is fully converted, probably sometime in the summer.  At this point I would expect to see a "conventional" discounted placing, followed by a huge ramp.  It's one to keep an eye on.

Savannah Petroleum (SAVP) waited until well after market close on Friday to announce that one of their institutional investors has sold down.  The company seems to be going nowhere now and with the massive supply of shares issued as a result of the Nigeria acquisition, even the Niger drilling campaign appears to be having no impact.

Finally, Reabold Resources (RBD) announced today the authority granted by the general meeting to the directors to allot the new placing shares.  I suspect that new acquisition announcements can be expected very soon now.

Hurricane Energy (London HUR US OTC HRCXF ) announced an update on its proposed financial restructuring.   Subject to directions of the court, a meeting of the bondholders is to be held on 4 June 2021 to consider and, if thought fit, approve the restructuring plan.  Hurricane is warning shareholders and bondholders that in the event the restructuring plan is not approved, either by the bondholders or the court, it is likely that there would be a controlled wind-down of operations followed by an insolvent liquidation of the company. Even if approved, in return for releasing $50 million of the principal amount outstanding under the convertibles, bondholders will receive ordinary shares comprising 95% of the fully diluted pro forma equity of the company, which values the existing equity at less than 0.1p per share.   I’ve been warning about HUR all the way from the low 30s down and all that was necessary to see what was going to happen here was to read and understand the consequences

Pantheon Resources (AIM PANR OTC PTHRF ) announced a management resource upgrade on its Shelf Margin Deltaic sequence encountered in the the Talitha #A well.   It estimates that the SMD-B zone has the potential to contain 2.6 billion barrels of oil in place and a P50 contingent resource (recoverable) of 404 million barrels of oil.   Analysis is not yet complete on the SMD-A and SMD-C zones, although it is anticipated that the SMD-A will experience a reduction, whereas the SMD-C is broadly in line with previous analysis.   Crucially, Pantheon confirmed that discussions have commenced with a number of groups for the purpose of seeking the farmout of a working interest percentage in one or more of its Alaskan projects, the aim being to complete a farmout or funding in the fourth quarter to provide sufficient capital for future drilling and testing.   PANR 's objective for winter 2021 / 22 is for an active work programme to test all zones of the Talitha #A well and to drill at least

Challenges raising funds are now becoming apparent for lower calibre companies and managements.   UK Oil & Gas (UKOG) ’s recent open offer, aiming for £4.7 million, raised only £462,554, while Petro Matad (MATD) had to announce last week that it managed to raise only £76,000 of the $2 million hoped for.   The $9.7 million previously raised by MATD through a 3.5p placing and subscription had already come at a terrible price to shareholders, with the shares apparently “pre-sold” by insiders all the way from 8.8p down.   The price now is 2.9p. The fun and games continue at Block Energy (BLOE) , where a management previously unable to distinguish water from oil (that’s the innocent explanation) is trying to stop a shareholders’ resolution to commission an independent forensic investigation into the affairs of the company.   Among other things, the shareholders are looking for failures to disclose information to the market in a timely manner and inappropriate trading of shares by dire
