Desire Petroleum are drilling in Falklands (DES)

free hit countersDesire Petroleum

<>Desire Petroleum plc (Desire) is a UK company listed on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) dedicated to exploring for oil and gas in the North Falkland Basin.

Desire has recently completed a 6 well exploration programme. The Liz well encountered dry gas and gas condensate at 2 separate levels while other wells recorded shows.
Together with the Rockhopper Exploration Sea Lion oil discovery in the licence to the north, these wells have provided significant encouragement for the potential of the North Falkland Basin. The oil at Sea Lion is of particular interest as this has demonstrated that oil is trapped in potentially significant quantities in a fan sandstone on the east flank of the basin. It is believed that over 50% of this east flank play fairway is on Desire operated acreage.

Desire has now completed new 3D seismic acquisition which provides coverage over the east flank play, Ann, Pam and Helen prospects. The results from fast-track processing of priority areas are provided in the 2011 CPR. A farm-out to Rockhopper has been announced. The revised equities are shown on the licence map (subject to regulatory approval and completion of the farm-in well).

Hi all

Well we didn't get cofirmation of the rally today. The open 0.4425p, High 0.4425p, low 0.4150p, close 0.4325p, combined volume 2.795m. Looks like you could be right momentum. Today we had good volume, but a lot more sells than buys. The candle that was formed was a hammer. This candle generaly comes out at the bottom of a down trend. It's said to be hammering out the base. Looking at the intraday chart, it looks like the bulls didn't get involved untill later in the afternoon. On sharescope DES went through the 200 day moving average today. This is where the bulls appear to have come in. The hammer being at the 200 day moving average looks to be confirming support at this area. However as momentum has said the lower level at the rising window may be tested. Lets hope not !

Hi all

No postings today ?

I'll not post a chart as there is a couple on the board aready. The open 0.4325p, high 0.5625p, low 0.4325p, close 0.5575p, combined volume 1.401m. The volume was down today, but more buys than sells. It would appear DES is showing signs of support at about the 200 day moving average. This will need confirmation ie DES will need close up again tomorrow. With a bit of luck the bears will be out and the bulls will be in. DES was the fourth highest mover in the oil & gas sector, up 5.78% since yesterday.

Britishbulls.com have a morning star pattern. (although not the classic pattern) it is still a reversal pattern. I hope we get confirmation tomorrow !

Good luck all

Cheers Eddie am in the background there watching and Friday is always an up day so get through Thursday see what happens.


So Eddie why is Friday a good day for Desire? press over weekend?


I dont think the Desire board know about press but the best secrets in life are kept quiet so keep it quiet as we are going to make a fortune here,

Cheers markymar

Lets hope we do !

What a pity I was away from the markets for the past couple of days. It seems that I could have missed some great buying levels! It is encouraging to see people on other DES bulletin boards talking about closing out their longs, as this is often a sign that the last stragglers are out now out of the way - leaving room for buyers to come back in. Psychologically, the nervous traders bit the bullet under 45p and looking at the 'hammer' pattern this confirms that the squeeze may well have completed on Tuesday. Good to see stochastic divergence (momentum rising while price makes new lows)...another great indicator for a bottom. Not to mention rising trendline from 2003 and 200 day M.A. A move back above 48p would really be a boost to the upside.

Hi all

Well we didn't get the confirmation today. The open 0.4575p, high 0.4575p low 0.4450p, close 0.4450p, combined volume 554.0 K. Looks like we have had a strange day. Low volume, very few buys & less sells than normal. Something is brewing. Looks like the bears may become bulls tomorrow. As lynnzal says DES looks great for a buy. As markymar says Friday is a good day for DES. It looks like the bulls have stepped aside today, letting the bears do their worst. The candles now give us dark cloud cover, which is generaly bearish but I think the bulls are ready to rally.

eddieshare - 08 Apr 2005 20:06 - 1084 of 6492

Hi all

The open 0.4475p, high 0.4550p, low 0.4475p, close 0.4550p, combined volume 279.0 K. The volume was down again today both buying & selling. The bulls were slightly ahead. DES up 2.25% since yesterday. The candle pattern is a bullish harami. The harami is suggesting DES may be about to have a trend reversal. With all the other indicators suggesting the same. DES looks promissing for a rally. The bears seem to be very few now. It may be time for some action from the bulls. Lets hope it's soon !

Peak hope to deliver 30 wells worldwide this year so they are an experienced group. 3 wells in the Falklands will be a major contract for them and their extensive experience means that they should be a safe pair of hands to run the project. Now we just need to hear some news about a rig or drill ship being hired and our shares should spring back to life. Thank you Eddie for the good news.
