Bought into IVE this morning, purely on speculation only... small time though. Don't know much about them though ! in for a penny in for a pound and all that.
Got out of TPG (dead loss and falling away fast)

Ive better provide the market with some solid numbers soon

It is a good opportunity to buy into IVE now.

Looking cheap time to add me thinks.

could go to 2.2p 1st

i had 2.50 as a buy target a month ago which it has now hit but due to these markets will hold off for now as the downside risk is greater then the upside.

Bought some@2.43,i hope this is the bottom!

good luck a brave person

Looks like you hit the bottom.

I lost a bit on barclays,should make it back and more on IVE,good luck to all who hold these.

CWMAM, forget about banks....in the long run this will come back....oil still doing fine.

I agree this and ser are now well under valued time soon for a bounce IMO.

can see this at 2.20-2.30 before a bounce.

Woodie, I picked some up early afternoon at 2.318p. Is that close enough to count as a bouncing point?

my own view it will go between 2.20-2.30 if iam right buying at 2.318 will only see around a 5% drop from your buying price..

bought over a million of these on Friday, can see this bouncing sooner rather than later.

Should have news on production rates soon..... would be good to see what they are.... (see below for a reminder)

Irvine Energy plc, the AIM listed oil and gas exploration and production
company, commenced production at the Niobrara oil and gas project in Kansas, USA
on April 28th. Ten wells are now pumping with a total of 16 wells expected to
be producing by early May. Gas sales contracts are in place and sales began at
11:00 am Mountain Time on April 28th. The Company is pleased to announce all
wells are producing at or ABOVE expected rates.

Irvine Energy

Kansas' record in oil and gas production is celebrated in the Kansas Oil Museum in the city of El Dorado, which lies on the Walnut River in Butler county.

If that sounds a bit quaint, it is probably because oil has been pumped out of the ground in the state for very nearly a century and has proved to be a profitable location for many companies.

One of the latest such groups is the AIM-listed Irvine Energy, which was first floated in December 2005. While the group is in the advantageous position of being in production on its sites in Kansas and Oklahoma, its shares have nonetheless performed abysmally, closing at just over 2p on Friday, and trading at a year high of just 4.35p.

Aaron Close, the group's managing director, says that debt financing is better than equity for an oil group already in production, both to avoid diluting the stock for existing shareholders, and to leverage the group up and run it more efficiently. While no doubt true, with the stock trading at such a low level, the shares would have to have been diluted pretty severely to match the $50m revolving mezzanine debt facility signed with specialist exploration financiers Gas Rock.

However, such financing will be used for some exciting projects for Irvine Energy. In Oklahoma, the group is expecting to be in production of coal-bed methane by the end of the year and is already undertaking a shale gas drilling programme.

Some of the acreage held by Irvine has been drilled on and off for about 90 years, and has about six years of production left in it, not that Mr Close or his team expects to be there when they run dry. The management of the group believes that before too long, they will be offered a deal from one of the oil market big beasts. Given that Irvine is already in production, and that it does have some very good sites, if the stock stays as low as it is, they will probably be right

I am holding 500,000 this all sounds great!Happy days.
