Rocketing this morning on a superb upgrade !...

hang on...even if the result is poor...I'll stick it out...horsehill was a good result I gather....the upside here is perhaps as high as the upper teens if they get more than a thousand barrels per day...there is a way to spy on this and that is to count the number of tankers coming and going to this well....take your best girlfriend along...sandwiches...a tent...binoculars....nice weekend...tell her : it's a surprise weekend dear...she'll love you to bits I'm sure...

Which is fine if you live in the neighbourhood. ....you have to say 'partner' now rf....apparently.

Really......I'm not with it anymore.....I'm still stuck in the Rolling Stones/Rigsby era I'm afraid...

Girlfriend is absolutely fine rf.

Gee...thanks for the advice guys....

Recovery today.

Waiting for next RNS.....make or break.

bit like watching paint dry ...... shall watch the cricket instead :-)

RNS at 18.05


Highlights

· All flow test regulatory permissions now in place following review by the Health and Safety Executive ("HSE"). Work continues to "complete" the well as a potential oil producer to be followed by a rig-less flow-test, encompassing multiple Kimmeridge zones over a total aggregate perforated section of 926 ft.

· Preliminary log interpretations indicate that the extensively naturally-fractured Kimmeridge section is oil bearing from around 3,800 ft to below 5,640 ft measured depth ("MD") a vertical section of around 1,330 ft. This observation is in accord with the mobile light oil recovered to surface in cores and recovered from drilling fluid, together with wet gas shows.

· An application to extend the exploration/testing phase for a further year to 15 September 2018 has been submitted to West Sussex County Council ("WSCC") with a decision expected in September 2017.

relative gibberish but i guess good news for those who hold, depending on their entry price

Oil is there...light oil...good...it looks like it will flow..how much we don't know...but the amount of oil in place might be substantial by the looks of it...at a guess...in excess of 500 millions barrels...perhaps a billion over the whole area...I'm guessing...not bad an rns...with first flow test to follow...what we do know is that there is a lot of light crude around ....how will the market respond ?...this is looking not too bad...

Up 21% pre-open

Might hit 10p plus today...oh boy !...

congrats to all who hold though i see sp is well of its morning high .... now 7.60 vs 9.25

Yes...it shot up for a few mn before hanging around 8...now 7.6.....still...flow results still to come....

The problem is that the RNS doesn't contain the info which the market is waiting for, so it's possible that the sp will settle back again.

One to monitor as much as possible this share....

You had seen both RNS releases from yesterday had you, Harrycat?

Ah, maybe not. Checking now.

Yep, nothing there I haven't already seen.
SDCM have increased their holding......BB1 ready to flow test....what more is there?
