Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 44.431.651 von gabbo62 am 15.04.13 11:25:19Tja gabbo62, da haben wir deine Vermutung schwarz auf weiß. Ich habe gerade den Davi View gelesen. Und ich behaupte, dass die darin verwendeten Infos nicht auf allein auf aus Fachwissen resultierenden Rückschlüssen basieren. Die bekommen einfach andere/mehr Infos...
Die News ist, wie einige zuvor in diesem Jahr, deutlich positiv. Wer in Afrika einem wildcatter technische Schwierigkeiten vorwirft hat imho die Branche verfehlt.
Und wenn der ABG-Analyst meint bei Sabisa würde die Info fehlen dass man Öl gefunden hat welches produziert werden kann, dann kann ich nur noch schmunzeln. Sollen diejenigen, welche so eine Erwartungshaltung haben, mal zu ihrer Tankstelle gehen und dort nachfragen. Die dürften naturgemäß genau wissen wie viel sie wovon wie tief unter der Erde haben.
Ich werde -weitestgehend entspannt
- in aller Ruhe abwarten. Fundamental sind die Infos alle gut. Irgendwann werden auch die Shortis kapitulieren, so langsam beginnen sie gegen Tatsachen zu wetten...

Tullow Oil
Interim well results from East Africa an incremental positive; NAV remains unchanged for now
DAVY VIEW
Tullow has reported indications of hydrocarbons in unconsolidated sands with the wildcat Sabisa-1 well in Ethiopia. The well will now be side-tracked to complete logging and analysis. At the Ngamia-1 exploration well in Kenya, a constrained well test produced 281 bopd from the Lower Lokhone sandstones using artificial lift. A further five shallower intervals will now be flow-tested.
We view the results from East Africa as an incremental positive in that the Sabisa-1 well demonstrates potential for a working petroleum system in a previous undrilled basin while the Lower Lokhone sands at Ngamia may, contrary to earlier diagnosis, prove commercial. Given the interim nature of the results, we are leaving our risk-weighted group valuation of 1453p per share unchanged for now.
Sabisa-1 demonstrates potential for working petroleum system
The Sabisa-1 well was drilled in the frontier South Omo basin, which is part of the East African Rift system. The well was testing a prospect in a delta depositional setting close to a basin-bounding fault. The high risk exploration well reported indications of hydrocarbons beneath a thick, unstable clay section. Indications of rich gas were registered but this does not preclude an oil discovery at this location (the heaviest hydrocarbon molecule that equipment can and did measure is C4). The Pliocene sands from which hydrocarbon shows were reported are unconsolidated in nature. This can be positive for the reservoir quality in terms of porosity and permeability. The well is now being side-tracked to gather a more comprehensive set of logs for analysis. This operation is expected to complete in late May. While interim results do not suggest a discovery of the scale of last year's Ngamia discovery in Kenya, it is a significant result in the context of a basin that is previously undrilled and therefore without guiding calibration data for seismic interpretation.
Lower Lokhone sands at Ngamia may be commercial
Tullow, the operator of Ngamia-1, had previously assigned zero net pay or commerciality to the Lower Lokhone oil-bearing reservoir sands. A flow-test on an interval in these sands produced light oil at a rate of 281 bopd with the aid of a pump, meaning earlier estimates for contingent resources at Ngamia-1 could be revised upwards. The flow test was constrained at surface with Ngamia-1 drilled as an exploration, rather than development or production, well. Future wells in the Lower Lokhone can be optimised to improve production rates from the oil-bearing zones in this formation.
Tullow and its partners will now flow test five intervals in the Upper Lokhone formation, which proved productive at the Twiga South-1 well in the same Lokichar basin.
The drilling rig from Paipai-1 is being mobilised to the Etuko prospect in the Lokichar basin in Kenya. A well on Etuko is due to spud on schedule in the first half of May.

AFRICA OIL: NEUTRAL/ SLIGHT POSITIVE UPDATE - ANALYSTS
2013-04-1509:45
Stockholm (Bloomberg) Africa Oil's update on its ongoing East African oil exploration adventure gets a neutral to slightly positive reception amongthe analysts Direkt been in contact with on Monday morning. Oil shares, however, wentin the opposite direction and dropped in the initial trading session on Monday.
"It looks as if the market is focusing a lot on the delays and technical problems of Sabisa, while I would focus on that they have encountered hydrocarbons, which is really positive. This is the important message in this news bulletin," said Remium analysts Susanna Helgesen.
She continues: "I ??had expected that the stock would go up slightly at this. Regard to the technical problems, everyone should alreadyknow about it. It was not news that way. Should be noted that the case of Africa, it takes longer to do everything, and their schedule for the number of wells this year, they will not be able to keep. But the big goal is to find oil, and they have found hydrocarbons in Sabisa is what is the most interesting.
Anders Holte at ABG Sundal Collier gives his view: "We think it was a neutral operational update. It has some problems with drilling but nothing else. Fact that it has found hydrocarbons in Sabisa is in itself positive, but it does not say youfound some oil which can be produced ".
At 9:40 o'clock had Africa Oil's shares fell about 6 percent to 41 kronor. "I'd take the opportunity to buy somemore shares," said ABG Analyst on the negative price reaction.

Vielen Dank motz1,
sehr gute Einschätzung zur News.
Die Kursentwicklung in Schweden vermutet "leicht negativ".
Hoffentlich lassen sich die PI`s von diesem Bluff nicht verarschen und schmeißen.
Solange wir über 1,5 Mio. Short-Bestand haben, sind dreckige Mächte im Driver Seat.

Interessantes Update.
Ngamia-1
Zunächst werden sich wohl viele darauf stürzen, dass die unterste getestete Zone "nur" 281 bopd liefert. Das ist absolut betrachtet nicht all zu viel, wenn man aber die verwendeten PCP berücksichtigt dürfte auch hier der Schluss nahe liegen, dass sich diese Zahl ausbaufähig ist. Und vor allem wird diese Menge aus einer anderen Schicht bzw. einem anderen reservoir produziert. Für mich viel konkreter: Tullows McCoss bezeichnet es so "The results from the first flow test at Ngamia are also very encouraging and prove the first potentially commercial flow from the Lower Lokhone reservoir section." Nice
.
Es folgen nach derzeitigem Plan also noch 5 weitere Tests, allesamt im Auwerwer - der Formation, in der die guten Ergebnisse der Twiga-Bohrung erzielt wurden. Die Ergebnisse dazu soll es laut AOI bis Anfang Juni geben.
KH gibt uns noch Hinweise wie sich der Resources Report entwickeln könnte: "The confirmation of potentially commercially viable oil in the Lower Lokhone sands in the Ngamia well will add to the overall resource potential, but also has positive implications for the upcoming Etuko-1 well on the eastern flank of the Lokichar Basin."
Etuko wird eines der "Mega-Drillings" der kommenden Monate, es würde einen komplett neuen play-type mit vielen follow ups im Lokichar Basin öffnen.
Sabisa
Man steht bei 1810m und musste aufgrund von "hole instability issues" einen sidetrack setzen. Wertvoll sind folgende zusätzlichen Infos: Es wurde ein "thick claystone top seal" gefunden. Zudem hat man "hydrocarbon indications" in darunterliegenden Schichten verzeichnet. Daher der sidetrack, um diese Zonen umfangreich zu loggen und samplen (alles Tullow).
AOI ergänzt "The hydrocarbon indications are highly encouraging as they provide emerging evidence for a working petroleum system in the previously undrilled South Omo Basin."
Damit erklärt sich dann auch die Verzögerung und die Ankündigung des Ergebnisses auf Ende Mai. Und wenn Tullow mir sagt, dass sie ausführlich loggen und samplen wollen, dann warte ich nicht ungern. Sie werden sich schon was dabei denken.
Ausblick:
- Etuko-drilling startet voraussichtlich in der ersten Mai-Hälfte
- El-Kuran-Vorbereitungen laufen, voraussichtlicher Beginn in Q2/13 (Zeitpunkt scheint mir optimistisch)
- Bahasi-Drilling in Block 9 soll in Q3/13 beginnen
- Rift Area Block: FTG soll noch im April beginnen und in Q3 abgeschlossen sein. AOI betont dass sie derzeit 100% WI an RVA halten.
Auf einen angenehmen AOI-Sommer
Wie immer alles imvho.

AFRICA OIL CONFIRMS LOWER LOKHONE OIL DISCOVERY
IN NGAMIA-1 WELL AND PROVIDES OPERATIONAL UPDATE
April 15, 2013 (AOI–TSXV, AOI–NASDAQ OMX) … Africa Oil Corp. (“Africa Oil” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide the following operational update on its projects in East Africa.
The first of six drill stem tests at the Ngamia-1 well has been concluded. This test was in the Lower Lokhone formation where up to 43m of potential pay had previously been identified by logging and MDT sampling. The well flowed 281 barrels of 30 degree API oil per day with the assistance of a Progressive Cavity Pump (PCP). The remaining 5 tests will be conducted in the Auwerwer (formerly Upper Lokhone) sandstones which are the highest quality reservoirs penetrated in the Ngamia well and which produced very well in the recent tests at the Twiga South-1 well. Results of these remaining Ngamia tests are expected to be announced by early June. The Ngamia-1 well is located in Block 10BB in Kenya and the Company has a 50% working interest in the block along with Tullow Oil Plc which holds the remaining 50% interest and operatorship.
The Sabisa-1 well in the South Omo Block in Southern Ethiopia has been drilled to a preliminary total depth of 1,810 metres. Hydrocarbon indications in sands beneath a thick claystone top seal have been recorded while drilling, but hole instability issues have required the drilling of a sidetrack to comprehensively log and sample these zones of interest. The sidetrack recently commenced and a result is now expected in late May. The hydrocarbon indications are highly encouraging as they provide emerging evidence for a working petroleum system in the previously undrilled South Omo Basin. The Company holds a 30% working interest in the block along with operator Tullow Oil Plc (50%) and partner Marathon Oil Corporation (20%).
The mobilization of the drilling rig from Paipai to the Etuko (previously Kamba) location in Block 10BB in Kenya continues on schedule with a spud date expected in the first half of May.
Drilling preparations are also underway on the El Kuran prospect in Ethiopia. Operator New Age are in the process of mobilizing a drilling rig and related services to the location and the well is also expected to spud in the second quarter of this year. This well is being drilled on a large structure previously confirmed to contain light oil in Jurassic carbonates by two boreholes drilled in the 1970’s. The Company holds a 30% working interest along with New Age (40%) and Afren Plc (30%).
The Company is in final negotiations to secure a drilling rig for its upcoming Bahasi-1 exploration well in Block 9 in Kenya. This well will test a large anticlinal feature in the Cretaceous rift trend which has recently been confirmed to contain hydrocarbons at the Paipai well in Block 10A. The well is expected to spud in the third quarter of this year. The Company holds a 50% working interest and operatorship along with partner Marathon Oil Corporation (50%).
Preparations are also underway to conduct a Full Tensor Gradiometry (FTG) survey on the Company’s newly awarded Rift Basin Area Block (previously the Rift Valley Joint Study Area) in Ethiopia. The survey is expected to commence this month and be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2013. The Company currently holds a 100% working interest in this block.
Africa Oil CEO Keith Hill commented “We are pleased to be moving forward on a number of high impact projects that will greatly affect the value of the Company in the coming year. The confirmation of potentially commercially viable oil in the Lower Lokhone sands in the Ngamia well will add to the overall resource potential, but also has positive implications for the upcoming Etuko-1 well on the eastern flank of the Lokichar Basin. We remain convinced that we have only just begun to unlock the potential of what may be one of the largest new oil basins to be opened in recent times.”

News Release
East Africa Operational Update
15 April 2013 - Tullow Oil plc ("Tullow") provides an update on progress with the Sabisa-1 well in Ethiopia and announces a successful first flow test of the Ngamia-1 well in Kenya.
Ethiopia - Sabisa-1 encounters hydrocarbons requiring logging and further evaluation
The Sabisa-1 well in the South Omo Block in Southern Ethiopia has been drilled to a total depth of 1,810 metres. Hydrocarbon indications in sands beneath a thick claystone top seal have been recorded whilst drilling, but hole instability issues have required the drilling of a sidetrack to comprehensively log and sample these zones of interest. The sidetrack recently commenced and a result is now expected in late May. Tullow (50%) is the operator of this well with Africa Oil (30%) and Marathon Oil (20%) having non-operated interests.
Kenya - first of six Ngamia-1 well tests flows at 281 bopd
At the Ngamia-1 well in Block 10BB in Kenya, the first of six drill stem tests has now been completed. The test was carried out in the Lower Lokhone formation. The well flowed 281 barrels of 30 degree API oil per day using a Progressive Cavity Pump. The other tests will be carried out in the Auwerwer reservoirs (formerly Upper Lokhone) which produced very well in the recent tests at the Twiga South-1 well. The mobilization of the drilling rig from Paipai in Block 10A to the Etuko (previously Kamba) location in Block 10BB in Kenya continues on schedule with drilling expected to commence in the first half of May. Tullow operates the Ngamia-1 well and Africa Oil (50%) has a non-operated interest.
Angus McCoss, Exploration Director of Tullow Oil plc, commented today,
"The Sabisa-1 well has proved to be technically challenging, as is often the case in frontier basins, and the well now requires a side-track to redrill, log and sample the objective section. Nevertheless, we are encouraged by the hydrocarbon indications which provide emerging evidence for a working petroleum system in the previously undrilled South Omo Basin. The results from the first flow test at Ngamia are also very encouraging and prove the first potentially commercial flow from the Lower Lokhone reservoir section. The remaining tests in the Auwerwer reservoir units will give us a fuller indication of Ngamia's production potential."
