RBD, JOG, SQZ and RRE

Reabold Resources (RBD) confirmed the placing results late yesterday afternoon.  Due to demand received during the bookbuild, RBD decided to increase the placing from 1,222,000,000 shares to 1,305,083,333 shares, an increase of 7%.  The shares have been placed with new and existing shareholders of the company at a price of 0.6 pence per share to raise approximately £7.83 million.  

Today's RBD announcement confirmed an increased investment in Corallian and its Colter and Wick prospects, with  drilling of Colter on track for the first half of 2018.  The company believes that this is the ideal time to deploy capital in line with its strategy and looks forward to an exciting year with multiple transformational drilling events.  With the placing out of the way, it's onwards and upwards now for RBD.

Jersey Oil & Gas (JOG) announced that a rig contract has been signed for the drilling of the Verbier appraisal programme in Summer 2018.  However, the drilling programme is not the only exciting aspect of JOG.  Many appear to have overlooked that the Company plans to build a production portfolio via acquisitions coinciding with the cyclical recovery in the oil price and the current opportune buying market in the North Sea.  JOG is involved in multiple sales processes and completing any one, or a combination of, these deals could result in similar immediate 200% - 300% gains such as those recently seen in Serica Energy (SQZ) and Rockrose Energy (RRE).  One to keep an eye on.

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
