I have been with this counter for a few years. I learnt 2 things...
1. It never fails to disappoint, and all upswings inevitable fizzle, dropping below fair value 2. It is pointless to try to convince investors that Armada is NOT related to oil price. If investors believe it is, then so should it be.
Let's hope for a surprise though. Russia is on our side. They paid for the ships, employed the construction vessels, and now they attack oil price ceilings. Let us hope they succeed.
top up more at 0.410 to average down...we are hardcore Fans.. We believe Armada is going to soar soon, just like Hibiscus. add more into this counter. Showhand.
How could we have missed it ... it is MAJOR NEWS !!! Shapoorji Pallonji’s FPSO Armada Sterling-V Achieves Sail-Away Readiness By Saur News Bureau/ Update... India’s sole specialist in Floating Production Storage and Offloading Units (FPSOs), Shapoorji Pallo...
Full text here so that web crawlers and bots can catch the news ... nice.
Shapoorji Pallonji Oil & Gas Pvt Ltd (SP O&G), a specialist in Floating Production Storage and Offloading Units (FPSOs) has achieved a significant milestone of sail-away readiness for its FPSO Armada Sterling V at Sembcorp Shipyard in Singapore. The FPSO is owned by SP O&G’s 70:30 joint venture with Malaysia’s Bumi Armada group. This is Shapoorji Pallonji’s fourth FPSO and its third FPSO for Indian waters.
FPSO Armada Sterling V will be deployed in Cluster 2 of ONGC’s KG 98/2 block in the east coast of India, which is ONGC’s first deep-water development. ONGC is investing over US $5 billion on this development, which includes an FPSO, a process platform and other facilities. The overall production of Cluster 2 is expected to peak at ~16.5 million standard cubic metres per day of gas and 78,000 barrels per day of crude oil, with the potential to reduce India’s annual import bill by $4.5 billion. At this crucial time, ONGC’s committed efforts to the project’s success will ensure India’s energy security. The project has provided valuable deep-water experience to ONGC and will give it enormous confidence to pursue challenging ultra-deepwater developments in India’s east coast.
Ravi Shankar, CEO & Director of SP O&G, said, “In the next decade, the world will need an additional 40 FPSOs, at least 20 Floating Storage and Regasification Units (FSRUs), and 10 Floating Liquified Natural Gas units (FLNGs). We are well-positioned to deliver large projects efficiently with state-of-the-art in-house engineering, project management teams and operations & maintenance capabilities. We have the advantage of India’s high-quality talent pool for the offshore industry. The capabilities we have developed will gradually enable Indian shipyards and fabrication entities to transition from conventional shipbuilding to handling technologically advanced vessels.”
The FPSO features 13 modules and central pipe racks weighing over 20,000 tonnes, with a processing capacity of ~60,000 of barrels per day of liquids and 3 million standard cubic metres per day of gas. It will be the largest ‘floater’ in Indian waters, measuring 321 metres in length and 60 metres in width, with a storage capacity of over 800,000 barrels.
Armada Sterling V is designed for continuous operations up to maximum wave heights of over 27 metres. It is engineered and delivered by a team of Indian engineers and project personnel. It is equipped with state-of-the-art technologies, including artificial intelligence and machine learning aspects, radar-controlled oil slick monitoring technologies and remote monitoring.
Ankit Garg, President – Projects of SP O&G, said, “We are working towards leveraging the enormous potential of Artificial Intelligence. We equip our FPSOs with AI solutions that allow us to better plan maintenance, thereby ensuring continuous oil and gas production.”
This is amazing news. Bumi Armada has been updating that sailaway readiness will be achieved in Oct 2022.
If true, it should start moving the price up once the FPSO actually begins moving out to India, and then again the price will improve with first oil. So lets see how it goes.
"Shapoorji Pallonji spokesman while refusing to divulge costing details told PTI that the vessel will be reaching the domestic waters sometime before December-end."
Shapoorji Pallonji builds floating rig for ONGC's KG wells
Named Armada Sterling V, the FPOS was built at the Sembcorp Shipyard in Singapore in association with Malaysia’s Bumi Armada group. The company has a 70:30 joint venture with the Malaysian group, Shapoorji Pallonji Oil & Gas said in a statement on Thursday.
Sailaway ceremony was held over the weekend at the yard in Singapore. The journey of Armada Sterling V to the KG DW 98/2 field should begin any day soon.
hng33, normally you will say sold all @0.425 to take profits first and wait for witness then only re-enter.. Your Purchase at @0.38 and unloaded all at @0.425 sure will make a hugh handsome profits !
But Why u even not unloaded all but to top up margin and sailang all at @0.425
Follow hng33 to unloaded all Armada shares at @0.425, take profits first then when hng33 re-enter then only i will follow hng33 to buy back Armada shares at low low price…
We deem the results to be within our expectations (57%) but above consensus (61%) as we believe 3Q22 might post weaker earnings performance as Armada Kraken is slated for maintenance in Sep 2022.
Remark: Armanda major earning driver, Kraken, will on maintenance in Sept, will affect revenue income for Q3
