Hence the reason as stated "should have been reported as".

I see you don't like to be corrected.
The grandstanding is unnecessary, honestly. Certain people here feel because they are referred to as ‘elders’ they cannot be wrong on matters.
Clearly Oando is not producing 100,000 now or anytime soon, but still grandstanding after forecasting on such erroneous basis?

I tried to research if there was any legal basis for that but found nothing to support it. Some articles seems to suggest the NNPC sort a waiver in case they wanted a third party participant or investor in the future. Why would the NNPC seek such waiver? Could they be saving the 10% for a third party (if true).

Anyway, I couldn't tell ya what happened there so let me just stop with the speculation. cheesy
Thank you for putting some light to it.
Well, it will not be surprising that the same government will go against it’s own laws. We are witnesses here to how they pick and choose what parts of laws to implement

Mister..., Seplat did not achieve a 300% return in any recent years. It opened this year at 2,310 and closed yesterday at 4,513.4, for a 195% return (R+1). The returns for previous years were 210% in 2023, 169% (R+1) in 2022, and 161% (R+1) in 2021. shocked

About this time last year Seplat traded around 1,200 and today its 4,500 that’s closer to 300% than 200%.
Are you just interested in arguing the toss or you are one of those ‘elders’ here who feel they must be right about everything?

Good attempt but unfortunately GROSSLY inaccurate.

* Peak Oil production was not 100,000bbls/day. Should have been reported as 100,000BOE/day. Also, Peak production can't be used for forecasting.
* Based on point above re BOE, you can't multiply this figure by $76 (the price of oil).
* Gas production figure is wrong. Don't know where that came from. Oando produced c. 31,912,680 MMBtu of gas in 2023.
* Average realised price of gas in 2023 was about $2 per MMBtu. Note - Futures contracts are usually used hedge commodity price risk.
* Your annual revenue was therefore grossly overstated which throws off the rest of your calculations.

However, I commend you for this intellectual exercise.

Things to note:

Gas:
1000Scf = 1Mcf
1000Mcf = 1MMcf
1000MMcf = 1Bcf
1000Bcf = 1Tcf

BOE (Barrel of OIL Equivalent)
1BOE = 6000Scf or 6Mcf or 5.8MMBtu (approx 6MMBtu)

Oil
1BOE = 1bbl (basically oil quantity needs no conversion. Unlike gas and NGLs, what you get is what it is)

So when an Upstream company reports production numbers, they usually refer to BOE to capture Oil, Natural Gas and Natural Gas liquids. Also, you would often see Oil companies qualify an oil well or OML by the proportion of Oil it produces e.g OML ABC producing 70% Oil (that is the % of oil in the BOE).
How does anyone refer to someone that gave this breakdown and analysis as “oversabi people that cannot read”?

Someone took the time to breakdown the figures and point out erroneous assumptions that you swallowed hook line and sinker from the original writeup, someone that clearly understands the matter by miles ahead of you, and you refer to them in that manner?

The very foundational basis of the Thisday piece is faulty. Oando being “first Nigerian IOC” due to its interest and Operations in Sao Tome is erroneous. Other indigenous companies hold interests there in Sao Tome, Malabu, etc but are not referred to as IOCs. Amni petroleum has held working interest and operates an asset in Ghana, even though no one has recognized it as IOC, so Oando is certainly not the first.

How is Oando producing 100,000? Even if BOE?
Even one of their EDs was recently on Arisetv saying 100,000 is a target

The money we made from Oando is peace of a lifetime if judiciously used.
It came with alot of stress owing to the frenzied and wild volatility. Some here have developed high bp, anxiety disorders, migraines, cognitive dissonance and even sadism (as we see in their daily wailings here) along the way. Seplat on the other hand peacefully and quietly delivered almost 300% in a year, without a headache.

SEPLAT is moving oooo!
None of the upstream oil and gas companies should be ignored. The govt will push them because it needs money. Aradel, Oando and Seplat should be watched closely
No one, certainly not myself said Seplat will not move as the divestment approval inches closer, just not the manner the Oando bull raged daily.

From my previous posts you can tell that i am very well positioned (almost certain more than you are) to benefit from any such raging bull. Just let’s not get our hopes too high and expect something close to the Oando rage!

I have mentioned long before now that Seplat is a peaceful stock for me, without the crazy & frenzied volatility of Oando which i exited earlier in the year to top up the Seplat. Four dollar denominated dividends already paid so far this year plus astonishing year-to-date growth with peace of mind, what else could anyone ask for?

Production costs per BOE based on AUDITED 2023 annual reports:

Seplat - $10.4/BOE
Aradel - $21.0/bbls (Reported in bbls so refinery costs included. About 33% of crude produced feeds their refinery)
Oando - TBC

This is the fact of actual production cost. However, there are other taxes and royalties that apply in Oil & Gas production which is technically not included in determining cost of production. It is an industry standard the world over. It is technically incorrect to sum up all taxes, royalties to determine the cost of production.

As for Nigeria's interest in JV especially share of production, the country has the RIGHT for up to 60% as per the PIA.

https://www.morganlewis.com/pubs/2021/12/nigeria-overhauls-its-oil-and-gas-laws-with-petroleum-industry-act
Do you reckon the PIA’s prescription of Nigeria’s rights of up to 60% interest in a JV was violated by Mobil Nigeria’s concession of relinquishing additional 10% to the NNPCL’s 60% stake in the onshore/shallow water assets JV in the out of court settlement to facilitate their divestment to Seplat?

Because as it stands today Nigeria’s stake in that JV is 70%, contrary to the PIA’s spirit and letter, and contrary to common sense as well, as there is almost a consensus that NNPC needs to cutdown (not increase) its JV interests.

Forecasting using peak production is like calculating your travel time between Abuja and Lagos using your car’s top speed of 240km/hr. Who does that? What ever happened to downtimes like slow traffic, bad roads, police check points, etc?

I don't think naija takes the lion share in the crude business based on agreement with foreign ioc i know.Thr percentage for ioc is usually higher than naija own because is them that brings the fund and equipment for the whole process. I think naira takes like 40% or even less.And I don't think Oando will be doing more than 50000 for now too
Because those IOC’s operate the JV’s does not necessarily translate to them “bringing the fund and equipment for the whole process”, that is why there is something called ‘cash call’ obligation.

Cash calls in oil and gas ventures refer to the request for funds by the operator from joint venture partners to cover anticipated costs for project operations such as exploration, drilling, and production.

In a JV, partners benefit from production in the ratio/proportion of their stake, and as someone already stated Nigeria’s interest in oil & gas JV’s averages about 60% (varies from JV to JV). So Oando with a 40% stake will not offtake more oil than the government represented by NNPCL with a higher 60% stake in the business. There is also IOC’s using their share of oil to settle royalty obligations & other concession rentals (royalty oil).

If you want to talk about government using it’s share of oil to settle cash call debts and other obligations in the JV, that is a different matter altogether.

Self deceit is a crime against oneself......and possibly those who believes in you. 🤭
He is clearly too emotionally inebriated about the Oando missed opportunity to see other opportunities. Though not likely in the immediate/foreseeable future, any such a jump of Oando to catch up with Seplat pricing will make for earlyretirement for many. But of course, even if such a black-swan opportunity turns up he will be too busy crying over spilt milk and doubling down on failure and still miss out.
That person is clearly not out here to make money but to waste his and others time

Thanks, for the correction. I mistook Seplat for Mobil.
You’re welcome!

A big threat to Seplat’s expected “bull rage’ after the acquisition is sealed is the 100,000 shares deal rule.
Recall, Oando was a near ‘penny’ stock when it started it’s post acquisition rage. With Seplat there is too much inertia to jump because of that rule. Most times its on full bid for days or weeks waiting for what someone here called ‘divine intervention’.

To help you, NNPC did not take Seplat to court as they had no issue with them whatsoever, instead they took their JV partner Mobil to court and got the extra 10% stake in the JV as out of court settlement compromise, a reduction in the stake of incoming Seplat which had not originally been factored in the transaction and market pricing.

Its not even up for argument that the deal started and was approved back in 2022 by Buhari, and Seplat did experience relative bull around the time. My point is many investors have already priced the Mobil acquisition in the current pricing so don’t expect the sort of Oando raging bull. Nobody said anything about “Never”, but it definitely and certainly cannot be like Oando, i can guarantee that.

Finally, everyone that is a keen follower of Seplat as I am knows the deal is inching close to finalizing, the president himself confirmed it in his speech yesterday.

Seplat had made its projections of reserve, production, etc post acquisition on the basis of taking up Mobil’s 40% stake in the JV, and now that it is down to 30, investors are repricing the post acquisition assets and Seplat shares valuation. That 10% concession to NNPC is definitely not good for the acquisition in the eyes of investors but ‘a necessary evil’ to discharge with the long winding legal huddles & encumbrances. Still, closing out on the divestment will be a welcome development that will be a relief to many anxious investors.

Never say never.
Seplat can still experience a bull when the Mobil deal is officially sealed and announced as completed.
Some people said similar things about the Oando-ENI deal, but we saw what happened to Oando share price when the deal was signed/announced in London.

About the approval, it was NNPC that took Seplat to court over the Mobil deal, and obtained court injunction which halted the process and caused the delay.
The parties just had an out-of-court settlement recently on 30 May 2024 and the NNPC withdrew the case from court. A compromise was reached with NNPC having 70% in the JV (instead of the usual 60%). Seplat therefore has 30%.

So the application for Seplat-Mobil transaction began officially in June 2024 ; the PIA provides that ministerial approval should be given within 120 days if all requirements are satisfied

Exactly my submission.
Na For countries wey get 24hrs/day, Average of 300/360 days of electricity per year. Not Africa yet. even at that, I think to power Manufacturing Equipments to meet their high capacity and efficiency, you just need fossil fuel--Coal, diesel, petrol, Gas, kero, etc.

Rnewables of Solar, Wind, biowaste are niche specific and tailored to particular equipments..not flexible for dynamic situations.

Africa and the rest of the developing world cannot achieve the level of industrial revolution the west experienced in the 19th & 20th century without fossil fuels. The power requirements of a large scale car plant can hardly be generated by today’s available renewable energy sources. Haven’t heard of one powered by windmills or sunlight.

It is almost inexplicable that the same west that used petroleum and coal to catalyze its industrial revolution are now preaching climate change and green energy to those on the cusp of industrial development.

How can Nigeria generate enough power to boost it’s abysmal wattage and overcome it’s crippling power challenges, if not by a source even more revolutionary than fossil, a source like nuclear?
