ICN - Icon Energy


Well, it was a buy the rumour, sell the fact moment for Icon last week when the maiden resource of 260PJ of 2C was announced I'm afraid.

Still early days for this little gasser, but it doesn't look too bad at all.

It is only contingent reserves, so some big hoops still to jump, but we should get an idea about that very soon as the 3 Lydia pilots are on production test, and the forth about to go on. These are more important, and will progress the reserves up to 3P. If the 260PJ is proved up to 3P I would assign a value of $260 million. It is only on 13% of ATP626, so plenty of area to find more.

Saturation, permeability, depth, and width of coals all stated as good per ASX announcements if you search here and there. Just waiting on the pilots now.

This company is hoping to prove up 5400PJ eventually.

I don't have time to check shares on issue etc, but my commsec account is saying
MC = $187 million
Cash = $20 million (sorry not sure, but at least this)
Value for csg $167 million

(They have been doing quite a bit of fund raising through share issues of late and should have about $20 million cash.)

Well, if 260 of 2C is converted to 3P, I think there is certainly room to move up in the share price.;)

Comments welcome!
 
Great stuff - you and Kennas make a wonderful team and can see you really do look at the fundamentals :eek::)
 
This looks like quite a few PJ's!

Just GIIP of course....

Another ramp?

LOL I was saying the same thing a few months ago regarding ECU. Has trippled since then.
 
Bit of a resource upgrade which looks nice.

UPGRADED NSAI CERTIFIED RESOURCE ESTIMATES FOR ICON ENERGY’S LYDIA FARMIN AREA

S&P/ASX 300 Index company, Icon Energy Limited (ICN) has received consent from Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc. (NSAI) on the 16th of September 2009 of upgraded certified estimates of the coal seam gas resource within the Stanwell Corporation farmin area in ATP 626P.

The farmin region, containing the Lydia Pilot Program, represents 13% of the key Icon Energy tenement located in Queensland’s Surat Basin.

The resource estimates have been provided by leading international certifier, Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc. (NSAI).

In the Lydia farmin area, the NSAI best estimate of the 2C Contingent Gas Resource is 357 billion cubic feet (BCF).

The 2C Gas Initially In Place (GIIP) best estimate is 773 BCF.

The upgraded results compare with earlier estimates of 2C Contingent Gas Resource at 260 BCF and 2C GIIP at 564 BCF.



I love this chart!

Question now is, where is support on the inevitable consolidation/correction?

Need to check market cap v peers, but has probably run ahead of itself you'd think.

Best guess major and minor support:

prepare for the punters now kenna

saw this in this afternoon's Australian:


you might have to revise that graph
 
First report on flows at Lydia at 30 000 reported today. Not all that flash in my books. They are hoping to build up to 250 000, their required commerical flow rate. That seems a long way away. Anyone been following flows starting at this level and where they ended up?

It is my thoughts, that there is a weak patch in the surat basin between condamine QLD and narrabri NSW. Hope this is not true, but these early signs are way below their blue chip peers in the industry.

Market does not appear to agree with me, so I could be completely wrong of course!
 
Hi Grace - 30 000 does sound pretty ordinary hey. Hope for all concerned that it picks up.....


Oh for the good ole days of QGC... (from early on - post #35 in the QGC thread)....


I think a few companies are starting to realise why BG wanted QGC so bad, and PES too. Don't think any other mob has come close to these kind of flows.... sadly.
-D
 

Yes, remembering the good old days. I have a picture on my desk of the Berwyndale South #18 flare that initially free-flowed gas at 2.3 million cubic feet per day and stabilised at around 2 million cubic feet per day. Blue chip alright! BOW looking quite smart though today (trying to be a bit quiet on that front before I load up there.)
 
Folks

I do hold some ICN.
Reading your postings and seeing the performance of ICN it looks like doom sayer's stock.

Is there any positive sign to get the fire extinguished ?
 
Methane content of 98% is very good, pity about the flow rates though...doesn't sound very encouraging at this point. No upgrade yet from 30 000 scfd.

Well folks, this has been on pump since August 2009, which means at about 6months you'll get a good indication of whether it is commercial or not.

I think this company is not informing the market very well at all. One only has to look at esg to see what good information is.

No permeability results ever given - come on, we know how to read them. They say they are good, yet don't give a measure.

Not touching this until we have some decent information. Shareholders are supposed to be kept well informed, and the fact they haven't really reported the strength or otherwise of this pilot from time to time, shows to me that perhaps the results are very poor.

Hopefully, I will be proven wrong.
 

Perhaps they read my post last night?


Okay, so are they say it is either gas or water at that flow rate - and not necessarily gas? mmmm Anyone care to comment.
 
I agree Grace - doesn't look all that flash to me, and I recall thinking before that ICN seem to talk up their prospects without a lot of detail to back it up. They might hit paydirt somewhere... but ...?? There are other CSGers around with much better prospects.... ESG - esp since their reserves upgrade and BOW to name 2. ... all just IMO.
 


Hi folks,

ICN ..... chart seems to be primed for some news ... v-bottom will be confirmed this
week, after a small hammer and an increase in volume last Friday, just ahead of a
major and positive time cycle coming into play, from Tuesday next .....

have a great week all
