Desire Petroleum are drilling in Falklands (DES)

<>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).

Huge oil find in Brazil which may help DES get a rig

nkirkup - I hope you're right, I wonder how similar the geology is in the Campos basin to the FI. I understand your reasoning, the more activity there is offshore Brasil then the greater likelihood of getting a rig from there. I'm not sure about the politics though of lending a rig which may upset Argentina, the rig may have to come from the North Sea again.

If Borders and Southern share price rises any more then I will start to think a deal is in the making, it reached an all time high today.

luckyswimmer - 28 Dec 2005 17:57 - 2084 of 6492

Having done a bit of research about the Campos basin compared with the Falklands plateau it seems that back in 2000 the USGS estimated P5% oil reserves for the Falklands plateau to be 17,000 mmbo whereas the Campos Basin had P5% 36,000 mmbo. So Desire is drilling in a region which may be half as prolific as the Campos basin - that would be nice.

I like the way you're thinking LS. Better still if we realise it next year.

Hi all

DES put in another great performance again today. The bulls are looking pretty strong still, DES closed on the days high. The volume was a little higher, but should increase as any more news filters through. There is some resistance at about 0.3200p, but this I think will be short lived. Things seem to be getting back on course.

Good Luck All

eddieshare - 30 Dec 2005 09:52 - 2090 of 6492

Yep markymar

Gone through the fibonacci line & still looking strong. It'll be great if DES closes on the days high again.

Well Markymar,

Subject to a stewards enquiry, clearing customs and immigration I'd say I'm 1000 better off.

So its an new FT to cover me on the park bench, and a few bottles of Meths.

Good job all those shorters closed out, doubt I would have won otherwise.

Well done Capt

Hi all

What a great performance for Friday. DES made great gains last week, all great signs for the new year. DES has a bit to do yet, resistance is at 0.3400p through to about 0.3700p, the 200 day moving average is about the midle. I f we see DES clear these early in the new year It'll be great.

Been having problems with my computer. So I may not get the same time to look in until I sort it.

Have A Great New Year

Online wouldn't let me deal early Friday due to market sizes so I watched it and couldn't take advantage. I console myself that I sold at 43p!
