I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from ShareProphets). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.
I last wrote about Sirius Petroleum (SRSP) towards the end of July and suggested the company was “nearly there” in finally realising its ambition to drill the Ororo-1 well, offshore Nigeria. Located in the Ororo oil field (OML 95), Ororo-1 was drilled by Chevron in 1986 and had an initial flow rate of c.2,200bopd from one zone and another 600bopd from a separate oil producing sand. According to the official line from Sirius, Chevron abandoned this discovery during a lower price environment, but the strength in oil over the last decade has made projects such as these economic. This all sounds extremely appealing, but there are problems with this story.
