If sitting on this for a year does not appeal, there is the option of switching ships in mid-stream. Just look for a good buy - there are plenty of more buoyant stocks around which are also down in price. I sold out of SBN at 4c yesterday and picked up a bunch of cheap MEO - they got hit hard because of a duster well - but at least another well will take only a few months to drill. You can get MEO share which were $1.50 a few weeks ago for 17c at the moment.
