I'm new here-- got sick of all the American morons and their idiot posts. Just a couple of points--
You guys will just have to relax and have a beer-- there are numerous goof-balls here in the States buying stocks they have no business messing with. They don't understand the oil business, and they run scared when they see any little thing that looks negative. Also, the traders have gotten ahold of SSN, and that makes it much more difficult to get the price moving up on a constant basis.
About the frac crews--- the lack of experienced (or any, for that matter) crews is getting worse. In every horizontal play, the laterials are getting longer and longer-- making for many more stages. So, jobs take longer. The Feb. date to frac the Montana well looks to be so they can frac both the Australia and Gretel wells one after the other.
Also, it's winter, so you can expect weather delays over the next couple of months.
Hang in there-- don't let the goofy Yanks drive you crazy.
I see SSN trading 5 times current price in next year to year-and-half.
I'm in SSN @ US$1.10-- and add more on dips.
