Oil price, Ascent, Deltic, GKP. And finally…

Oil price, Ascent Resources, Gulfsands Petroleum
Oil rallies and Brent is nearly $40 and nearly in backwardation, the Opec+ meeting on Thursday might make or break that...Today I look at Ascent Resources where the new team are really getting to grips with things and also Gulfsands Petroleum where further cost cutting continues but still looks very exciting for those with a long perspective.
Oil price, Genel, Ascent, Jadestone
Oil declined yesterday with US/Sino tensions rising again. Genel has received money from the KRG but for shareholders more importantly go X 10 cents divvi today. Ascent Resources are coming up with plans for Slovenia whilst news from Cuba will also be upcoming as the company look at new areas. Finally Jadestone rarely, if ever disappoints and whilst this year will be one to forget the company are actually looking pretty good via capex and opex savings and the future looking bright.

A slight, hardly noticeable pick up in crude prices as the US waits for its $2tn and the Saudi/US alliance....DGO has announced an extended Ohio asset agreement again demonstrating its commitment to its asset retirement programme.

The oil price will have done well to increase on the week in the face of the inscrutable Chinese virus as well as the 1H oversupply situation but Opec+ production cuts will help that. Today DGO announce a buy-back, on an 11% yield punters should follow, Far suffer at the hands of the Court of Arbitration but are set fair in West Africa. Ascent Resources, where shareholders have been crying out for restructuring have now got just that and SDX spud at South Disouq.
