What thread was he posting on?

No apparent thread, just a bald statement of his thoughts.

Good morning one and all! If there is no news today i do expect a retracement of some sort, in and around the 90 mark. But again, as posted so many many times, a day or week retracement is a small blip! Always keep on top of investments and never invest what you can not afford to lose, of course! However, i have absolutely no doubt that this will come good soon enough.

A 2 starting sp will be nice with a bumpy ride up to 3, take a little profit there and watch intently as the rest of the holding creeps up to the 5 mark.

Oh heavenly joy!

gra1969: my intentions exactly!

Realistically, though, I'll be pursuing that strategy in January, not December as hoped.

Why is the price dropping so quick?

Looks like another Teeling "sucess"!

Down 20% and falling, good luck you lot, looks like you need it!

Dunno what has happened to PET but the drop looks ominous......dyor of course.

Any ideas as to why the price drop? Does someone know something we don't.. I am pretty tempted to increase my holding.

Thanks

Chris

We have seen this before. Jitters.

What has happened?

Where is the RNS for this drop?

That is aa big jitter......... I am trying to find out for you, but there seems nothing around.

looks like time to bail out..in free-fall

****This is not to do with block 6****

It may have no bearing on PETS interests.

REUTERS UPDATE 1-Iraq awards first postwar oilfield contracts [DSXJLLW]



(Adds details)

BAGHDAD, Dec 16 (Reuters) - Iraq's oil ministry has awarded
the country's first postwar oilfield development contracts to
Turkish and Canadian firms, an oil official said on Thursday.

Turkey's Everasia won the contract to rehabilitate the
Khurmala Dome field in the north and Canada's Ironhorse Oil &
Gas Inc will develop the Himrin field, said the the
official who declined to be named.

The projects aim to realise Khurmala's potential to produce
100,000 barrels per day and raise output at the Himrin field.

The contracts involve constructing new flow lines, building
gas separation stations and measures to stop water emerging from
wells. Drilling will be done by the ministry's digging division.

Nasser Chamma, another ministry official in charge of
projects, declined to confirm the companies that won the
contracts but said that their names had been presented to the
council of ministers for approval.

Chamma said the ministry was studying offers for another
contract to raise the output of the Suba-Luhais field from
50,000 to 180,000 bpd.

The cost of the three projects combined has been estimated
at $500 million.

I don't know for sure if this is the news PET holders were waiting for so please do your own research and make your own decisons.

Good luck to you whatever you do!

Good to see PET did not release RNS!!!!!

Bastards!!

Are these the same projects that PET were chasing? Either way one would expect an RNS from PET?

I'm sticking with it & hopefully PET will issue an RNS soon as its in their interests to do so. Perhaps this is the best time to buy...

If it is the ones and I read that only block 6 remains from other bb.'s then PET are stuffed.

If this falls through then they have their last RNS where they threw their hands in the air in horror at the speculation and price increase.

That will make them almost but not quite criminally irresponsible.

PRE then PET.

As I said please DYOR..............

I can Confirm these are the contracts they were after .I have sold up.

Further to its announcement of 27 September 2004, the Company confirms that it
has finalised all outstanding matters on the tenders for the Hamrin and Khurmala
projects in Iraq and awaits a decision. The deadline for submission of the final
commercial offer on the Subba and Luhais project is December 15th.

I am not saying this isnt bad news but a lot of people seem to think its a great buying opportunity as there are as many buyers as sellers! This does not make sense!Did the MM's start the panic by dropping the price and now after the knee jerk reaction people are analysing it in a little more detail. I am not trying to be over optomistic , just observing what is happenning
