Concorde Oil and Gas plc

Concorde commenced trading on the OFEX 19.09.2005.

Starvest, a AIM listed fund run by the legendary shrewd trader Bruce Rowan has a
significant stake here.


Concorde Oil and Gas Plc (Concorde) is charged with the objective of identifying,
acquiring and operating oil and gas opportunities in the Russian Federation. The
Directors of Concorde have extensive experience in the oil and gas industry and
also benefit from an extensive network of contacts developed from their time at
the oil major, Texaco.

Concorde's vision and business model requires that international operations will
be undertaken in regions where a competitive advantage can be achieved by
leveraging unique local contacts and developing a strong, regionally focused
energy company.

Concorde will only pursue acquisitions that are in production or are discoveries
with early production potential. It is considered that the acquisition premium
required for this type of opportunity, where early cash flow is achieved, is
preferable to the higher risk and longer- term nature of pure exploration.

p-snow,

I hold SVE, but don't agree that by buying SVE you will gain proper exposure to CDE.

SVE is trading at a significant discount to NAV, and is also at the mercy of other shares performing in it's portfolio, so even if CDE do well, say APP have a fall, the full increase in CDE will not be reflected in SVE, IMHO.

If you want exposure to CDE, I would buy CDE, but for a more general investment with SOME exposure to CDE, then SVE is a good investment IMO.

I hold both, and intend to continue to do so..

Thanks Andy

Fair play to you Andy. If lindos or anyone else is a little concerned about volatility & an entry point to CDE the spread bet of SVE may be worth considering. You may be at the mercy of other shares in the SVE portfolio not doing well but if youre in CDE you are at the mercy of only CDE not doing well.

SVE would seem to be a lower risk strategy for those who want it & risk management is what its all about. Best of luck to all holders in both companies, either way I reckon we are on to a couple of winners. DYOR.

Off to the Alhambra now in not so sunny Spain. It snowed yesterday & I froze my nads off all day! Story of my life.

I joined in today with a few CDE and SVE. hedge my bets!

moneyplus,

CDE is on the move, up .8p today now!

Pechoare Energy deal extension of exclusivity period terminates 25th March, so we MAY hear at any time from now.

moneyplus,

50k BUY, now up 1p.

lots of excitement today-where do you think the sp will be in say 6 months? I'm blue now and don't want to be greedy but feel this should be a long term hold and not for the impatient. cheers Andy keep posting MP

moneyplus,

No idea to be perfectly honest, but if the Pechora Energy deal is as good as some think, I feel we will be ahead of the current price.

They are looking at three deals in Russia I believe!

The Pechora Energy deal is on!


Concorde Oil and Gas plc - Conditional Aquisition


Thursday 23rd March 2006

Concorde Oil and Gas plc
("Concorde" or "the Company")


Conditional acquisition of Pechora Energy


Intention to transfer to AIM

Concorde Oil and Gas, the Ofex quoted company seeking to acquire operational
oil and gas assets in the Russian Federation, has signed a conditional
agreement to acquire the Pechora Energy Company ("Pechora"). This follows the
announcement in December 2005 that it had signed a Memorandum of Understanding
with Pechora, which might lead to it acquiring 100% of that company.

The acquisition is conditional on Concorde raising the necessary funds to
conclude the deal within the next 60 days, which the Company expects to do by
way of a fundraising and is now intending to transfer its shares from Ofex to
the Alternative Investment Market ("AIM"), subject to the usual requirements.

Pechora, a private Russian company, owns the Luzskoye Field situated in the
Timan-Pechora Basin in the north-east of the Russian Federation. The field has
been evaluated by Miller and Lents Ltd, a firm of independent petroleum
engineers based in Houston, Texas, and contains an estimated 20 - 30 million
barrels of crude oil under the categories of Proven, Probable and Possible.
Additional reserve opportunities have been identified. In total this matches
Concorde's stated acquisition objectives and the Company will purchase these
reserves for between US$20 - 25 million subject to verification and closing
asset valuation.

Since 1965 all four wells drilled on the field have been oil discoveries, with
current production of around 250 barrels of crude per day from two wells. The
field is close to Pechora's export rail terminal, and Concorde expects to start
an aggressive development plan soon after acquiring the assets to fully deplete
the existing crude oil reserves. The field consists of a number of Devonian
reservoirs, which have tested high grade, low sulphur 40 API oil, with some
paraffin. The field extends over an area of just under 21 square kilometres,
with the producing horizons found at depths of around 2000 metres.

The Timan-Pechora oil province, where the Luzskoye field is located, spans the
administrative regions of the Republic of Komi and the Nenets Autonomous Okrug,
and extends into the Pechora Sea reaching Kolguyev Island. There are currently
172 oilfields in the region with an estimated reserve base of 15 bn bbls,
although Lukoil believes that this figure could double. The prolific Timan-
Pechora basin has attracted interest from such western companies as
TexacoChevron and ConocoPhillips amongst others. The primary source rocks of
the basin are late Devonian, known by the Russian name of Domanik, but oil is
also found in the Carboniferous and Early Permian layers.




PETER HUGHES, CONCORDE'S CHIEF EXECUTIVE, COMMENTED:

"Since joining Ofex last September, Concorde has assessed a large number of
possible acquisitions both in the Russian Federation and the Former Soviet
Union. We think that the Pechora purchase is an excellent start in building a
large E&P company. Concorde will now seek an AIM listing so as to gain greater
access to the financial markets in order to fund this purchase.

Pechora is a very exciting acquisition for Concorde which gives us immediate
cash flow as well as the potential to increase production significantly over
the next three years."

Andy,

Additional to your excellent update, the co has just released this correction:

>> Correction: this statement has been corrected in the fourth paragraph to state
that the current production is from one rather than two wells, as previously
announced. <<

Which, IMHO, makes the deal look even more interesting.

Andy,

A question: do you have any theories as to why the SP has dropped on the announcement of this deal? With this in the bag and the AIM transfer coming up, I would have thought the price would be racing ahead. My guess is that the number of shares required to be placed to raise the necessary funds to purchase Pechora pushes the market cap to around 40M which looks, possibly, a bit pricy at the present stage. I would welcome your thoughts . . .

exciting news-the sp should race away once on Aim! IMO. thanks for bringing my attention to this one Andy.

soul traders,

Thanks for the correction in the CDE statement.

I personally think the price drop is due to the lack of initial production from the purchase, and I have to admit I too am slightly disappointed it's not higher.

I know that they are looking at other prospects in the same region, so they are probably intending to use the Pechora site as a hub for production from adojining fields as well as new wells they intend to drill.

There are three old wells in the field, and I would imagine they will receive a workover with our modern technology, so we may see a considerable improvement in production levels in the near future.

In addition, confirmation of the deal has probably set the price of the placing shares at a slight discount to the current market cap, so some will possibly sell now, especially if they have held since the 1 - 2p days, like myself.

They have used a competent firm of auditors to establish the likely reserves, and they have to sell this deal to the city in order to biuld a book and get the placing away to fund the completion of the deal, so I am reasonably happy they will achieve their objectives, and become a Russian based producer in the short term.

I am going to ring and ask if they intned to place with PI's, but they did say no before, so I doubt we will have a chance, but I may as well ask.

Andy-looks to be encouraging results out from INDY today and SVE are increasing their stake. Are you in this one-what is your opinion?? I am very tempted to build a decent stake.

Moneyplus,

Sorry I have never looked at INDY, but a quick glance of the charts indicates an uptrend since last November, so chartwise it certainly looks ok.

Whether they can maintain the momentum is another matter, but all looks ok at the moment.

Andy,

thanks for a great piece of insight there - I'll be interested to see how the placing is priced as it seems that the stock has enjoyed a very good run of late and some of the good news may already be priced in.

Growth Company Investor has published an article re the CDE news today.
========================================================

23/03/2006

As foreshadowed here, Concorde Oil & Gas is buying Russia's Pechora Energy for up to $25 million and joining AIM.

Concorde, a stellar OFEX performer since its September float, has been scouting for assets in the Russian Federation and signed a memorandum of understanding with Pechora in December. A private Russian concern, Pechora owns the Luzskoye Field in north-eastern Russia, which Houston-based specialist engineering company Miller & Lents estimates to contain between 20 and 30 million 'proven, probable and possible' barrels of crude oil.

Concorde's chief executive Peter Hughes, a veteran of US oil giant Texaco, has struck a deal whereby Concorde will pay between $20 and $25 million in cash to buy Pechora Energy, subject to verification and closing valuation of the Luzskoye assets. The field is in the resource-rich Timan-Pechora Basin, which boasts 172 oil fields and estimated reserves of at least 15 billion barrels.

Concorde plans to raise at least some of the money it needs for the deal by floating on AIM, with the help of VSA Resources and Beaumont Cornish as nominated adviser. The precise amount to be sought and the price have still to be finalised.

In its brief career on OFEX, Concorde has raised 2 million in two stages and seen its shares soar from 0.62p to 15.25p before easing back to 12p now. If Pechora passes muster, they could go even higher.

Andy,

Talking of stocks tipped to go even higher: you've probably seen NOP today; Panmure Gordon are talking about 360p. You heard it here . . . .

soul traders,

NOP @ 360p?

wow!

Well, it has to happen yet, but after today's 50% rise to 140p on upgraded reserves estimates, it's clearly not pie-in-the-sky. DYOR :o)
