Black Rock Oil says drilling started on Cooper 1 well in Western Australia
AFX


LONDON (AFX) - Black Rock Oil & Gas PLC said drilling started today on the Cooper 1 well in Western Australia.

The well is expected to take about 10 days to drill.

If successful the structure into which Cooper 1 is to be drilled could contain more than 20 mln barrels recoverable of oil of which Black Rock has 7.5 pct.

'The shallow water depth and proximity to shore would result in modest development costs with the potential high productivity of the Birdrong Sandstone reservoir making even a relatively small oil pool discovery economic,' the company said.

LONDON (AFX) - Black Rock Oil & Gas PLC said its pretax losses widened in the six months to end December 2004 on increased exploration activity.

Pretax losses widened to 997,528 stg from 242,667 stg in the year-earlier period. The company has no sales.

'We actively are seeking additional exploration acreage in low-risk areas where there is still a high probability of success, as well as looking to further strengthen the management team,' said managing director Ivan Burgess.

During the period Black Rock's inaugural chairman David Steinepreis stepped down as part of the company's process of moving from Australia to the UK.

The AIM-listed company has petroleum interests in the UK, Republic of Ireland, and Australia, although it plans to focus on further acquisitions in Europe and the North Sea and reduce its exposure in Australia.

My thoughts exactly.

Mr Oily Jim

How is that new Porche going? When I get my Noble M14....

11% up at the moment, could there be some news on the horizon??

This could tick up again before the close of play, a steady stream of buying.

There you go, spot on, up another 2%.

Up again 3%, is there more??

This one is going to BLOW our heads of in the near future.

Mr Gull, new Porsche is awsome. Now looking for reg DES 1. or who knows BLR might do the bizo sooner rather than later.

Good Luck

LONDON (AFX) - Black Rock Oil & Gas PLC said it has entered into agreements in California and in Colombia under which it can gain stakes in oil and gas production projects.

It has entered into a farm-in agreement with a private North American company to earn a majority interest in and operatorship of oil and gas leases covering approximately 3,000 acres in the eastern San Joaquin Basin, California.

Black Rock will pay the cost of the acquisition of a 3D seismic programme, shot in the last few weeks, and plans to drill three wells over the remainder of 2005 to test two oil and one gas play there.

One of the oil plays there is estimated to contain 1 mln bbls of probable reserves.

In Colombia, Black Rock has has finalised a farmout agreement with Kappa Resources Colombia Ltd, a privately held oil and gas exploration and production, which will enable the group to earn a significant interest in Kappa's 249,000 acre Las Quinchas Association contract located in the prolific Middle Magdalena Valley.

The companies have negotiated a joint venture in order to accelerate development of Kappa's Arce Oil Field and the Bukhara 1 oil discovery.

Under the terms of the Farmout Agreement, Black Rock will expend an estimated 3.2 mln usd to earn 50 pct of Kappa's rights to the Las Quinchas Association contract.

Black Rock will participate in the drilling of the Arce 3 delineation well, and the pending work-over and extended production testing of Bukhara 1.

This will start to fly soon.goal.

ex Oz,makes many good moves.

Should not be long before we see some significant moves in the right direction as Ivan seems to be getting things moving now. A find in Columbia or IOW will do the trick and at present I think this share is way undervalued IMHO. !!!!
