GOLD OIL, the London-based oil exploration company focused on the South American and Caribbean region, announces that in late December 2005, the Company received an Operator Certificate from PeruPetro that allows the Company to carry out seismic, drilling and development operations in Northwest Peru.
The Promotion Licence signed with PeruPetro on October 15, 2004 with PeruPetro for Block XI (now renamed Block XXI) onshore Sechura Basin has been converted to an Exploration and Production Licence. The Licence now goes to the Ministry of Energy and Mines for approval, which could be forthcoming anytime between February and May of this year 2006.
The terms of the E&P Licence commit the Company to either shoot 120 km of 2D seismic or drill a well in the first period of five over a seven year term. The remaining four periods require the Company to either drill a well or drop the acreage. The Licence is for a term of 30 years for oil and 40 years for gas, with a minimum royalty of 5% on wellhead production for the first 5000bopd (30 MMscfd for gas) rising to 20% if and when production reaches 100,000 bopd (600 MMscfd for gas).

Times Article:
Gold Oil is valued in the market at about �15m. That is so small that almost any good news must have a big impact on the share price.
What are the chances of that happening? Run by a former Burmah Oil director, Mike Burchell, Gold Oil will drill the first in a series of wells in the Sechura Basin in April. There will be surprise if it does not find gas, as another company, Olympic, has done just that in a similar formation nearby.
The secondary target, later in the year, will be oil, I gather. A couple of months ago, Petro Tech made a big oil find offshore in the Sechura Basin. The theory is the oil may have migrated up into Gold Oil�s block. Don�t ask me to explain the geology because I don�t speak Palaeozoic. But a decent oil find here would be a company-maker.
Gold Oil has enough cash to fund this year�s drilling programme. And it already has a deal in place to sell its gas to Mann Ferrostaal, a German company that is building an ammonia plant nearby. Getting all that for �15m seemed a bargain to me. But Gold Oil still has to find its gas.

Driver , glad your still here , trust me to balls up at 10.44 today! What's your take on Gold Oil ? i still have some faith , but think we are in for the long haul on this now i am afraid to say !

It's been a long haul up till now so no change this will come good in the end.

is that when you hit the bottom of the crevass - i.e. the pain comes to an end?

Keep the faith, one well (that was a free carry) so what.
Portfolio has good potential imo.

Stupid levels and time to buy while everyone does a runner.
How much was the bid for?.

for how long has that mantra been preached?
far too long ..... GOO is a total waste of space and money ....even a punt on one of the falklands E&Ps has a better chance

ok.

Mr. Parvesi must be a bit sick!
I still have a modest holding in GOO & am happy to hold for a while yet, but not expecting to become rich any time soon.

Yes was thinking earlier that Mr P must be extremly disappointed to put it mildly ! Let's hope he doesn't sell up as it be curtains for GOO. If he did sell he take a massive loss , fingers crossed that he hangs on in there still !

tried to tell you guys

What the heck does that mean : "it has been in discussions with the brokers to the
recently announced placing regarding the settlement of the proceeds
of the placing due to be paid to the Company today."? My GCE english doesn't cover that kind of double talk.

Unhappy at paying 4p refusing to pay.

looks very much as though Mr P has got himself a dud hand that will fold of its own accord

CYNIC
You are correct SIR!
Its not the first time the board has been in the hot seat,oh well win some loose some.

since when was i ever called Sir ..... Cur i recognise more readily!

I use Sir,when i stand to be corrected as a display of respect,do not get too carried away.I was able to recoup losses here with BLVN,and i am staying out of the markets for sometime now.
Good luck to all that stay put here.

Still in keeping the faith, mind you I sold my initial investment some time ago so holding profit in shares and happy to do so for the long haul..

should not now have long to go then .... until the company goes into admin

does that mean if the settlement is received today there may be a little rally?
is it legally possible for the settlement to not be paid? i can understand being extremely p*****d off with the news about Rosa Blanca but is it sufficient to withhold payment?
not holding though have traded in an out, last time[2 yrs ago] with disastrous results.
Alex

I sold out and put it in to AMER-a much better proposition.
