With all this going on in Iraq , i would have thought with Afren having such a large investment in Kurdishstan there would be more comments on this thread

Didn't say it was , but it seems to be what is holding the price back and it is a large investment risk.

sp hasn't really moved very much in months, or at least it feels that way

"Is this the next Tullow" - the title of the header - ha ha ha
It seems to be as Tullow now at what seems to be almost a five year low.
I have just had a punt on Afren - bought 40,000 at 110p - I recon the Company is the same basis Company, only the CEO and COO are corrupt - Not so unusual for Nigeria.
It should all come right again after throwing them out ? What do you guess ?

nigeria = corruption = CEO!
sorry to see you have dumped a further 10% since you bought

If my fore-sight was as good as my hind-sight,
I would be a dammed- sight better off."
I have not done myself in yet over the 10% drop.
I remain hopeful of a recovery very soon.
Those who are forced or panic into making a deal will be soon be removed
from the scene, and things will settle on the basis of what the Company
is perceived to be worth.
You should all hold on for now I think - I hope

Company valuation has dropped about £500 million or about 33%, since yesterday
can that be justified ?
We need to throw out a couple of directors, who I thought were too greedy anyway,
and they will be replaced by more trustworthy directors.

Their director share options must have been hammered also !!

it's loss of market confidence that does the damage
on the other hand, it's not impossible that this will make the company more tempting as a t/o target, as at least they are producing a respectable amount of oil, even if less than predicted

I agree - with you Mr Cynic
It is an interesting play now - we can only wait to see what transpires,
We should have hope that something good could come out of this sad situation.
The next news from AFR will be interesting - I can't wait

Could not resist picking some up....was lucky enough not to have any position at all in AFR...so jumped back in...(for good or for worse...gulp !)....

Nothing to do do with oil production or exploration...it seems the directors have picking up some perks they were not entitled to.....minimal compared to the actual turnover of the company....fingers crossed for a good rebound...not good for confidence in the city for this company or the graph that will now look like a "seven sisters" suicidal jump...
