OER M&A Today
On November 12, 2012, OER was informed by NAOC of evidence of leakages on the 10 inch Kwale-Akri oil delivery
line, causing NAOC to temporarily close the pipeline. NAOC was unable to inspect the line to determine the extent of
damage, as flooding due to bad weather caused the area to be inaccessible. All production evacuated through this
pipeline was temporarily shut in pending NAOC’s ability to access, inspect and repair the line. On December 11, 2012,
OER announced that assessment efforts had revealed that the pipeline would require a partial replacement. Production
and injection re-commenced on December 24, 2012 and continued through to February 14 2013, when it had to be
stopped again due to rupture in the pipeline. All efforts to effect repairs have not been successful to date and NAOC
formally declared a force majeure on March 21, 2013. It is expected that this will be in effect until at least the second
week of April. Production from the Ebendo Field (OML 56) is evacuated through this pipeline to the Brass export
terminal

Bobby. All this down time is not good for pps. Many will sell and move on. Could be some time before investors come back to Mart. I dont like it at all. And with no updates makes it hard to know whats going on. Income first Q will be impacted greatly. All we can hope is second and third Q makes up for all these losses. Frustrating is all I can say. imo

Taking 17% in losses is bs...i can't wait for the new pipeline to be built.

And throughout all this, we hear ZERO from Wade. What a great communicator! He'll likely try to save up all the info for one PR, and throw in one nugget of "goodness" that he hopes will overcome everything else "pipeline still down, no 2nd pipleine till Q4, but we're spudding UMU-11"!

Meant to say: If indeed the new pipeline is delayed till Q4, that is material and something we should be hearing from Wade himself

So it looks like AGIP will resume by 2nd week of April, I think some people are confusing Forcados with Brass River, the Shell pipe is the one the article references as September. Looks like a buy opp amongst the confusion.
