Serica looks very good compared to the peer group

Serica looks very good compared to the peer groupCanaccord has a recent update on Ithaca and compared them to Antrim and Oilexco in '09.

The most compelling metric seems to be EV/boed.

Ithaca had the lowest valuationwith $37K boed.  Antrim was next at $56K boed.  And Oilexco was last at $65K per boed.  Makes sense as OIL is a big producer throwing off big cf at the moment.

But when one compares Serica (with 65% of 55MM cfd = 6000 boed net plus the 2750-3250 bpd net condensate), Serica has far and away the best metrics.

Say 9000 boed to make it easy.  $264MM mc (I assume the $80MM cash roughly offsets the $100MM debt facility).  

That gives EV/boed of just $29K or a 25% discount to the cheapest of those other plays.

Honestly, I sold a bit of my Ithaca in recent days to load up on Serica.  But still holding Ithaca in hopes of good success at Manuel and Athena.

I really like the looks of the Ireland potential - could really be a company maker.
