surprisingly low volume on news,will hh be another pvr duster or will we finally see a return on our investment in the celtic sea.

winner,according to PVR 80% chance of encountering hydrocarbons at HH. Grounds for optimism,I say!!

shame markets are in such turmoil or we would be over 7p by now.When markets settle(when?)and drilling has commenced we should get a march north.

winner,announcement of spud in the next week will put a wee bit of lead in the pencil here.

oil prices could test $65,i would prefer a trading range between 65-75 dollars and with opec unlikely to increase output we should see support there.
hermana where do you see the dow falling too, below 13000 or is the recent fall just a healthy correction.

winner,I see the dow closing at 13,300 today.

dow trading at 13270,might be right!

winner,I occasionally am!

If you are as accurate here,we should be in for some fireworks.

winner,I am normally on the money with PVR!

winner,I am normally on the money with PVR!

hermana you are 200% sure then,drilling should begin late next week and results end of august.

with three major oil companies drilling deep sea targets in 2008,pvrs portfolio should become much more attractive.

winner,30 day program so results due early September.
Davy Stockbokers note yesterday.

Providence - Gathering momentum; upcoming drilling programme part of an increasingly attractive portfolio - 10 Aug 2007

Providence is involved in three appraisal wells in H2 2007: Hook Head; the AJE field, offshore Nigeria; and High Island (Gulf of Mexico). We expect Providence to participate in two wells on the Atlantic Margin in the next two years. Three major oil companies will drill four wells on deep-water targets offshore Ireland in 2008. This resurgence of activity may increase the market valuation of Providence's deep-water assets

spanish point will i imagine be drilled first,rigs should be easier to come by 08/09.

winner,Dunquin to be first,imo. At The AGM Chief Geologist,John O'Sullivan,told me he was meeting the boys from ExxonMobil in London that same afternoon.

Even better if that is the case,news on that will be very difficult to keep a lid on.

winner,so far the ExxonMobil consortium have been very secretive but a May/June 2008 drill is a racing certainty.

will be happy for sp of 40-50p in two years.

winner,me too. Would allow me to live a wee bit luxuriously like our esteemed CEO......
