I have been reading about Subsea resources, and I will be keeping an eye on the stock, as their first salvage operation is imminent, and it will be interesting to see what level of sucess they can achieve, measured against their expectations.



SubSea Resources has been formed to salvage cargoes from cargo ships that have been lost in deep water. Only a handful of wrecks have been salvaged in water depths exceeding 1000 metres, whereas hundreds have been worked on in depths down to 300 metres. The barrier to deeper work has been a lack of technology, which is now available mainly due to developments in the offshore oil and gas industry.

Sonar scan of wreck

SubSea Resources has identified at least 70 commercial salvage targets and has identified twenty major target vessels containing cargoes with a gross value of over $450 million (based on recent LME metal prices and contemporary lading records). In the first phase of the companys business plan it aims to raise the cargoes from six of these vessels over the next three years.


In addition, it is anticipated that certain historic cargoes may be integrated with the commercial salvage operations. Some of the historic targets have potential values of many millions of dollars each, bringing the combined value of identified historic and commercial targets to well over $1 billion.




Initial Salvage Targets

SubSea Resources has an initial programme to salvage the cargos of six commercial wrecks in the period to 31 March 2008. The gross value of these six wrecks is estimated at US$180 million.

The wrecks allow for a mix of weather conditions - allowing for both northern summer and winter working conditions. All wrecks are in international waters and all of the cargoes will be recovered through contracts with the legal owners. The water depths range from below 1500 meters to 5000+ meters.

Agreed; I have come to the conclusion that I'm dangerous when I get bored. It's best then to put me in my playpen with a box of Sticklebricks.

Kin'ell, that made me laugh, I'd better get one as well!

I too read the RNS - but rather than post it verbatum..... "what does it mean" ...to us Punters?.....does it really mean that SUB is alive and well, - or is this a dead-cat bounce opportunity?
I have been surprised at the speed SUB has gone under - it was flying high not that long ago, before Exec incompetance overcame the hope-value.
This is not one I've held, being "too high" when I first noticed it.

.

Nice to see the big boys buying. Talking of which, have you seen IMY? up over 150% in a month on institutional buying.

hangon ..... you don't have e-mail so this is the only way to respond .... thank you, or at least i think it was a compliment .... merely try to have some fun with words, be slightly facetious but with some underlying common sense!

Morning all. forget what I said about IMY - the takeover offer was for far less than the current SP, hence today's drop!

OSLO (Thomson Financial) - Aker Kvaerner ASA said it has been awarded a contract for a subsea tie-in system project in Brazil by Norwegian peer Subsea 7 Inc, in a deal worth 4 mln usd.

Program.

( If only it was our one )

It's not the same Subsea, Smiler.

: ( THERE was also one called Deep6 but it sank !!, ST may here something in May ?

4p!!, 1,350,00 down the pan for listening to directors bullshit, shudda been a "feel good" share, a company delivering the cargos that so many men lost their lives trying to deliver.

4p is fast-approaching it seems as more punters leave the sinking stock. What is surprisiing is that the Mkt Cap is shown as 7m - yet I'm trying to remember if they had any meaningful T/O - do I recall some zinc was lifted? (odd metal to find, as I'd have thought the sea would have fast-corroded it).
Was this co ever a go-er . . . or were Directors in posession of a great wheeze of an idea and sold it to innocent punters (and the Banks! using our money).

Pity the punters.

They con-vinced the government as well, the war graves commission and me, nice as pie at 14p, can't get them on the phone now. I even suggested making a docusoap out of the operations, like "At home with the Osbournes", hlol !!
