Desire Petroleum

<>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). Desire Petroleum

Latest Press Realeses from Desire

BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Prime Minister Gordon Brown urged retailers Thursday to cut petrol prices to reflect the drop in the oil price.

Brown also said that, despite the halving of the oil price from a high of $147 a barrel in July to under $74 for U.S. crude Thursday, oil prices were "still too high."

Brown said he would like to see other retailers follow the lead of two supermarket chains which have cut the petrol price to just below one pound a litre, from a peak of 1.18 pounds.

"The public know that when oil prices go up, it's reflected very quickly in the petrol pump price. What they want to know is that when oil prices come down that is also reflected in the pump price," he told a news conference after a European Union summit.

"I want to see the competition between supermarkets and oil companies reflected in lower prices at the pumps," he said.

"Over these next few days we'll be monitoring what's happening but I expect other companies to follow the lead that has been taken by two supermarkets in the last days," he said.

High energy prices have fuelled inflation which hit a 16-year high of 5.2 percent in September. Many economists believe British inflation has now peaked.

BP and supermarket chains Asda, owned by Wal-Mart Stores, and WM Morrison have cut their petrol price to 99.9 pence a litre, according to press reports.

Voters' anger over high energy and food prices has cost Brown's government support, leaving it lagging the opposition Conservatives in the opinion polls.

Opec cuts output by 1.5m bpd
News wires

Saudi Arabian Oil Minister Ali Naimi has announced that Opec will cut its oil output by 1.5 million barrels per day with effect from 1 November, a decision the International Energy Agency has dismissed as "unhelpful" and the White House has branded "anti-market".


He said Opec needed to see the effect of its decision on the oil market before considering any further possible cuts, a Reuters report said.

Naimi, speaking after a meeting which lasted less than two hours, said the cut will help stabilise the oil market.

"The decision was straightforward," Naimi told reporters.

He hoped the decision will help alleviate economic instability but stressed Opec should not be associated with the financial crisis.

"Don't put Opec with the financial crisis," Naimi said, adding that record high oil prices in July this year were the result of speculative trade on futures markets.

He declined to be drawn on commenting on a suitable price for crude.

Naimi also said Opec could meet more frequently to review production.

"We're prepared to meet more often to stabilise the market," he said, adding Opec would do "whatever it takes".

Opec president Chakib Khelil told a press conference the group could take further action if needed before its next scheduled meeting, due to be held in the Algerian city of Oran in December.

"If a further decision has to be made, it will be made and we will not necessarily wait for the Oran meeting," Khelil told a press conference.

The United Arab Emirates Oil Minister Mohammed al-Hamli said that the decision to cut output was unanimous, adding he believed it was a positive move and would help to restore balance to oil markets and stability to the world economy.

Meanwhile, the IEA said the cut was "unhelpful" and comes in the context of main oil consuming countries facing a sharp recession.

"It's not a helpful decision because markets are quite nervous," Eduardo Lopez, senior analyst at the oil market division, told Reuters. "The size of the cut is too big," he added.

The White House also criticised the decision.

"It has always been our view that the value of commodities, including oil, should be determined in open, competitive markets, and not by these kinds of anti-market production decisions," White House spokesman Tony Fratto said.

The US has been concerned about high oil prices which have contributed to a slowing economy.

U.S. CRUDE FUTURES SETTLE AT $64.15/BBL, DOWN $3.69, 5.44 PERCENT


- U.S. CRUDE FUTURES SETTLE AT $64.15/BBL, DOWN $3.69, 5.44 PERCENT, LOWEST SINCE SETTLEMENT MAY 31, 2007

And it has seen a 61.8% retracement from the all time high for those interested in Fibonnacci retracements.

Not Hlyeo98 - only headline grabbing pronouncements from the likes of IC.

If you think oil is going substantially lower - think gain. These guys will do whatever it takes and the US is all out of chips to influence them. Military threats would have the opposite effect and might suit Iran, who are hurting and may quite like to effectively close the Straights of Hormuz.
