Winston Score History

The full picture

FAR Limited is a small Australian oil and gas exploration company. It searches for oil and natural gas deposits beneath the ocean floor, primarily off the coast of West Africa. The company's main focus has been the Sangomar oil field in Senegal, which is one of the largest offshore oil discoveries in West Africa in recent years.

FAR makes money by holding ownership stakes in oil and gas projects. When oil is produced and sold, FAR receives a share of the revenue based on its percentage interest in each project. The company operates almost entirely in Senegal and is very small, with a market cap near zero, reflecting years of exploration spending without significant production income. FAR faces serious financial risk because it sold its stake in the Sangomar field in 2021 after failing to secure funding, leaving it without a clear producing asset and actively searching for a new path forward.
