I love a good throwback!

The following thread will have some great quotes out of this article from Hart Energy - September 2015 & another reminder of why 88E went to Alaska.

88energy.com/wp-content/upl…
$eeenf @88EnergyLtd
"The company acquired an 87.5 % working interest and operatorship of the onshore acreage (Icewine) and paid a US$500,000, non-refundable deposit, before raising $6.9 million in February to fund the balance. "
$eeenf
“This is a project that can attract capital in a low-oil-price environment, bc you're getting such excellent bang for your buck... spending a very small amount of $ to get access to what could be a billion barrel oil prize in a shale play is still attractive to investors"
$eeenf @88EnergyLtd
"...everything else associated with drilling is deductible and when they do their deductions in Alaska, instead of deducting it off your taxable revenue so that you get a tax credit, they actually give you back physical cash, even if you are not producing.”
$eeenf @88EnergyLtd
“What they’ve done in the statute is make that cash transferrable, so the actual credit application is a transferrable item that you can give or sell to someone else, which means that a bank will loan against it”
$eeenf @88EnergyLtd
"[a Houston lawyer] introduced him to Paul Basinski, the hydrology and unconventional oil and gas guru whose team helped open liquid shale treasure troves for ConocoPhillips, also in the Eagle Ford"
$eeenf @88EnergyLtd
💥“The unconventional potential of Alaska, according to a (USGS) 2012 study, is something like 2 billion barrels across the entire North Slope. Well we think we’ve got potential of 1 billion barrels on our 100,000 acres alone,” Wall said."💥
$eeenf @88EnergyLtd
“The project has been identified by the guy who was instrumental in identifying the sweet spot in the Eagle Ford. Using the same methodology, he has put this project together...It could have huge potential, & we would have to spend very little $ to test it."
$eeenf @88EnergyLtd
💥"The optionality associated with the project is unlike any project I’ve seen in the last 10 years, and I’ve looked at a lot of projects as an analyst." -David Wall 💥
$eeenf @88EnergyLtd
“There is infrastructure that we sit on top of, the road and the pipeline system, which runs through our acreage. Around 11 miles to the south is Pump Station 2, which has never been utilized, but is still in operating condition.
$eeenf @88EnergyLtd
"That gives us options to either truck oil 35 miles north to Pump Station 1, where Prudhoe Bay feeds into the pipeline, or build a pipeline down to Pump Station 2,”
$eeenf @88EnergyLtd
“We’re trying to do something that is a little more phased in our approach, which is drill this well, get some core data, shoot some seismic and then look at next steps. We think that is a lower risk approach with a lower cost.”
$eeenf @88EnergyLtd
“It’s always serendipity, networks, people; they’re the things that position you to get access to these types of opportunities...you’ve got to be in the right place at the right time, & then you’ve got to capitalize on the opportunity.. that is our next step.”

Please remember the following is a conspiracy theory. I have come to these thoughts based upon the following information and upon discussing them with my friends: @tonka_waterman & @The2020Father

**THIS IS NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE**
$eenf @88EnergyLtd

As we all know, CEO David Wall is leaving 88E in May 2021 on "good terms".

The current CFO/Secretary Ashley Gilbert is replacing David. Today I decided to do MORE research on Ashley and I stumbled up on this:

Naturally, I looked into Woodside Petroleum.

"Woodside is the largest operator of oil & gas production in Australia & also Australia's largest independent dedicated oil & gas company."

"Charlie-1.... comprises over 1 TCF est. gross mean prospective gas and assoc. condensate... commercialisation options include, but are not limited to, possible local power generation, compressed natural gas as well as potential for conversion to hydrogen"
$eeenf @88EnergyLtd
Re Yukon Leases: "The acquisition of these leases represents a logical step in the Company’s aggregation strategy for oil resources in this part of the North Slope, where existing infrastructure provides a potential pathway to commercialisation..."
$eeenf @88EnergyLtd
"...with the addition of lease AA095899 which is adjacent to the existing Yukon Leases held by Regenerate Alaska Inc anticipated to assist in advancing continuing discussions with nearby resource owners to optimise the monetisation strategy of the acreage."

Let's be real most of you have not been holding @88EnergyLtd shares for five+ years. You are new(ish) investors (myself included) so lets take a look back & see where @88EnergyLtd was coming from w/regards to the North Slope.

As I mentioned previously, Emerald House is just one subsidiary w/in @88EnergyLtd who operates the Merlin-1 well.

Accumulate Energy Alaska (AEA) is another subsidiary of 88E which is named the operator of Icewine 1 & 2 wells & Charlie 1 well.

$eeenf @88EnergyLtd

A search for AEA within the Alaska Dept. of Commerce brings up multiple filings. One name mentioned quite frequently (alongside David Wall) is, Michael McFarlane.

McFarlane is listed as a Director for AEA in this 2020 Biennial report: AEA's 2020 Biennial Report (pg 1 of 2)AEA's 2020 Biennial Report (pg 2 of 2)

My $eeenf @88EnergyLtd investigation on this boring Monday:

Merlin-1 well is operated by Emerald House, LLC

drillingedge.com/alaska/umiat-q…
$eeenf @88EnergyLtd
Alaska entity search for Emerald House, LLC shows they updated their address from Perth, Australia to Houston, TX on 10/27/20: Image
$eeenf @88EnergyLtd
Google search Houston, TX address brings up:

Looper Goodwine P.C. - specializing in Oil & Gas Mergers & acquisitions, Acquisition & divestiture of oil & gas assets... Joint venture structuring for exploration & development...
