Desire Petroleum are drilling in Falklands (DES)     

markymar - 03 Dec 2003 11:36

free hit countersDesire 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).

2003, said Mr. Blair was a year in which efforts to diversify the Falkland Islands economy were deservedly reaping rewards; the agricultural sector had strengthened, while oil exploration projects also held out the prospect of positive benefits to the economy.

Looks like we have broken the 60p mark now so the next one to break is the high of 64p and if that breaks we are in to a new area 70p.

mitzy - 05 Jan 2005 12:05 - 423 of 6492

70P looks great Mark and 100p later in the year...

markymar - 05 Jan 2005 12:19 - 424 of 6492

And when they do start to drill 4 to 6 depending on how many partners and how many holes.

Then the big if do the hit oil and how much ?

markymar - 06 Jan 2005 09:02 - 425 of 6492

She is all blue today next stop 70p

hampi_man - 06 Jan 2005 09:08 - 426 of 6492

Once it breaks through the 64p barrier, then we will see 70p

berlingo - 06 Jan 2005 17:18 - 427 of 6492

Hi everyone,
Well a good start to the New Year.There`s been more shares bought than sold in the last few days.Hopefully we will see an imminent announcement soon regarding the farm in . There is deffo a positive feel about DES at the moment. Does anyone know what DES`s P/E ratio is ? The smaller the better so i believe but what papers do list DES dont have the P/E !
Thankyou
Berlingo

momentum - 06 Jan 2005 17:40 - 428 of 6492

Des dont make a profit therfore dont have a PER

berlingo - 06 Jan 2005 19:31 - 429 of 6492

Thanks for that Momentum.

hampi_man - 07 Jan 2005 10:29 - 430 of 6492

Still finding it hard to 'break on through to the other side', 64/65p seems to
be an obstacle...........any views. C'mon DES

markymar - 07 Jan 2005 11:01 - 431 of 6492

They have changed there name...intresting to know why?


December 2004 - New Licences in North Falkland Basin issued to Crude Oil and Gas Ltd [now known as Rockhopper Resources]
Crude Oil and Gas Ltd, [now known as Rockhopper Resources] a new UK exploration start-up company, has been awarded 2 licences covering 16 blocks in Quadrants 25 and 26 of the North Falkland Basin. These blocks (see A3 map available from the Downloads page) surround Desire Petroleum's blocks in the southernmost part of the North Falkland Basin. They are located in relatively shallow water (all less than 200 metres), and represent an opportunity to explore a part of the North Falkland Basin with a distinctly different structural style and stratigraphic infill to that observed further north in the area drilled during 1998.

Rockhopper Resources plan a 2D seismic survey over their new licences within the first year of operation.

Hi all

Just posting this chart. DES is looking good still. The resistance that we had at 0.55p became the support. So 0.60p became the new resistance. So we may see DES visit the 0.60p (the new support) a few times before going through the 0.65p resistance. The candles are above the 10 day moving average, which is also going up, another good sign.

Good Luck All

hi guys, a very healthy looking chart for today, but can the momentum be maintianed. I wonder if the DES board will feel the need to dampen the spirits, they have kept a steady control on enthusiastic volatility in the past somewhat. Any way fingers crossed we do not slip back on no positive news tomorrow, but you never know. I for one will be sitting tight as you REALLY dont' want to be out on this one when the news breaks (especially after 6 years!).
Marky you are are doing a stirling effort on all the boards (ADVFN is my usual).
How did your conversations with Ledingham & Chambers pan out last month, did you manage to glean any information about potential parters & progress out of them.

heres hoping for more days like to today.

Hi Jon B

I think that only bad news would send DES down. I can't see DES wanting to give its share holders bad news. So I'm sure when they make their announcment they will be grining from ear to ear.

Good Luck

Hi all

Well looking at todays trading, where the DES has opend at 0.68p, high 0.71p, low 0.67p & close at 0.68p. Put into a candle we have a long thin vertical (high & low)line. A thin horizontal line (open & close). The candle type is called Doji. This candle means the buyers & sellers have come to a crossroads. Meaning the market may be in transition. This could mean the sellers become buyers, sending DES upward. It could also mean the buyers become sellers, sending DES down. I have looked at the volume of sales, which has icreased over the past six days (712k, 1.225m, 1.421m, 799.0k, 1.55m, 3.092m). The fact that the volume has increased, makes me think news might be about to break. If we start to trade up after the Doji, we can take this as being a bullish signal. Down wouldn't be good ! The Doji says the market is in ballance, so which way will the scales tilt. Bulls or Bears ?

Any thoughts ?

Good Luck All

Eddie

Fibonnaci fan retracements have been very accurate in predicting the pull backs from each spike up. If indeed today was the high for this spike at 71p then i expect a retracement back to 66p to 64.25p.

eddieshare - 12 Jan 2005 07:31 - 439 of 6492

Hi momentum

Yes I have also seen fibonnaci retracement. Each retracement has been broken so far, but to see the Doji candle at this level is going to be a strong indication of the markets sentiment.

Good Luck All

Hi all

just looked at the candles in a different light. I blended them into weekly candles. The picture then looked different, on weekly candles we have already seen the doji & the gravestone doji side by side. These were over the christmas & new year period. The weekly candles show the two strong weeks since new year. There is a bit of resistance at 0.71p area. So lets hope we continue up. (The candles on moneyam are not the same as the program I use, but the chart below is as close as I can get it).
