The tiny Irish stock on the brink of landing 'the first' post-sanction oil deal in Iraq. Ref 'Fleet Street Letter' 12-04-04..

Sue Helen are you in this too? Could be a classic case of great minds think alike or idiots never differ. Only time is gonna tell on this!!!

Best of luck all

Tokyo

morning all,
whatever happens with these contracts,the steady stream of press they are getting is doing no harm to us that bought in jan/feb of this year or before. with three companies short-listed for three contracts and petrel do seem to be getting more involved with the technical side,the odds are very good of getting at least one contract.failing that you could sell now and make a very healthy profit.
just my early morning thougthts,

bad news coming from iraq, fighting in basra and british soldier killed

I was wondering, does this mean a Petrel employee is selling his shares via option?? All new to this, but it seems a strange time to sell just prior to a potential contract award?

Morning Dexter01 (actually it's just after 6pm here)

Here is the link, not related to the 3 tenders

All other news of listings has seen a decrease in the stock price(as lets face it, it actually dilutes the price of the stock we already hold), but we actually have a jump this morning , hopefully a sign that good things are to come with this share.

Fingers crossed everyone

Tokyo

Hi all you PETS
they obviously need the 50 grand to finance something...could well be connected to contract wins and the start of fundraising...go go go

piston broke - I hope it's champagne all the way for you soon!!

connected back to Monday's announcement, Petrel are in stage 2 of their negotiations, does anyone know how many stages they are? Dextor01 or anyone else, Did you e-mail them on this?

Tokyo

they did say that there would be small placings,so not to dilute price.if the placing are put up on 16th august, it may well mean something is about to happen or it could be for a beano to baghdad!!.
there do seem to be regular mentions from different quarters,and forgetting press hypeusually there`s no smoke without fire.
the 3 contracts would need total funding of 411m(can`t rememberwhether$or),iwonder if PET could finance that.i think 2 contracts,just my gut feeling.
dexter

They have already mentioned that they have promisary notes from Japanese banks for the finance required for the projects. (All 3 if neccessary)
I feel that they will only get one, but am of course hoping for 2, even 3!!!!!!!!!

If 4 pounds has been thrown out there for just 1 contract, perhaps it is not crazy to imagine a share price of 6-7 pounds for 2 contracts. (although won't be ordering that new car, just yet!!!)

climbing steadily back to the begining of the week high,lets hope we stay there

With the bidding on the other contracts to take place this weekend, I'm sure many people are hoping Petrel come back from Iraq with alot of good news about their tenders, and possibily something from the biddings
