Good luck man. The latest news out today about China doesn't sound promising for the oil business.

I hear you. Everyone is on board to sell but it will probably take 2 months to be able t get it cleared.
Either way it's all good. We weren't even aware of it until 2 months ago.

Offshore is picking up right now. Russians have increased their offshore activities so have we and the Mexicans in the GOM.
In the next 5 years, oil prices will shoot up to $150. Nobody has done real exploration work in the last decade.

You don’t need to do exploration when literally every hole you punch is a producer.

Big baws of the Permian.
Posted on 8/6/19 at 7:40 pm to redstick13
That’s true for the Permian but most companies are sinking because of horrible decline rates and not enough well spacing.
It takes about 3.5 mill to drill and another 4 mill for a 60 stage frack job. That’s 7.5 million, but you also have to pay to lease the acreage. An Acre can go up to $90,000 right now.
Let’s say 8 million dollars in Cost for 1 well.
You produce an average 6000 barrels per day your first 30 days. After 30 days, you are making around 500-600 barrels per day for the rest of your first year. At the end of that first year, you are now getting 80% water.
You get about 10-12 million in revenue after your first year but don’t forget that you have royalties to pay.
You are not making more than 12 million on 1 well after a few years of production for yourself. You still made 4 million in profit but that’s not enough to fund another well. Hence you have to ask for more investment. Therefore, you have no positive cash flow.
Offshore, your well will cost you at least 60 million dollars, but you are easily getting 10,000 barrels of oil a day on average for a few years. Exponentially higher investment but if your wells are good, you are going to make billions in revenue if you have 15-30 good producing offshore wells.

Not many offshore wells produce 10,000 bbl/day and the costs to bring that production to a refinery are exponentially higher. WTI $ per bbl is the same for offshore as it is for land.

Yea and even though rig and service rates have come way down 60M is not going to cover a DW well.
Posted on 8/6/19 at 8:50 pm to GREENHEAD22
Wells are drilled under $60MM in the GOM are certainly possible, especially if you look at TLP type facilities with low burn rates. Granted, there is a huge initial infrastructure cost to start.

They are. In fact Shell has been drilling reentry wells on Auger this year but those wells are not touching 10,000 bbl/day. The guy he was responding to was mentioning exploration. Exploration wells have none of the infrastructure in place to bring any potential discoveries to production. That involves an enormous investment and years to bring online.

What about Guyana? XOM and Hess will be rolling in the cash in a year or 2
Posted on 8/6/19 at 9:22 pm to elsu
Exploration for Exxon Mobil in Guyana began in 2008.
They knew all along but only announced in 2015. It’s looking really good for them. About 300 ft. Thick high quality sandstones that contain more than 700 million barrels of oil.
