Re: CRGY in advanced talks to buy SBOW

Thanks for sharing. If the offer of $ 2.1 B is inclusive the SBOW $ 1,173 B debt, then the offer equals (2,100-1,173)/25.445 = $ 36.40 per share. We will have to wait and see whether if the offer would be in cash, shares or a mixture. If the offer is cash then it seems reasonable. If the offer is in...

I do not like analysts' estimates, as I have no clue on (1) what oil/NGL, gas price they are based, (2) what is included and what not and (3) how up to date t...

Re: Talos Energy (TALO) Q1 Results - May 6

Dan, I am a bit cautious on Talos. Reserves Talos proven reserves are 153 M BoE. Quarter North added 69 M BoE to this The combined Talos + Quarter North reserves (222 M BoE) are equivalent to only 6.6 years of the 92.5 K BoE/d 2024 production. This is well below the industry average (9.5-10 years. T...
