Company Profile

Taghmen Energy is an independent oil and gas exploration, development and production company which listed on Londons AIM market in January 2005. It is focused on Latin America and has assembled a group of assets in Central America.

Key Points:

Exploration focus is shifting to new hydrocarbon destinations.
Maturing fields in traditional oil producing regions such as the Persian Gulf and the North Sea have prompted companies to seek alternative destinations for hydrocarbon reserves. As a result, there has been a notable increase in exploration activity amongst the former Soviet Union, Latin/Central America and West Africa regions due to their under-exploited reserves. Much of future oil and gas production is expected to come from these emerging hydrocarbon regions.

... and to the development of smaller fields
With the notable exception of those in the former Soviet Union, new regions however offer relatively smaller fields. Their economics make them distinctly attractive for smaller companies but unattractive for the majors. This has prompted larger companies to focus on production, leaving exploration and development of hydrocarbon reserves with smaller companies. Taghmen characterises these emerging exploration trends in the oil and gas sector.

Corporate strategy entails both exploration and production
What is unique with Taghmen is its intent to be engaged in subsequent production as well. Most exploration companies seek to exit upon the prove-up of their reserves through an asset sale to a larger company. Taghmens intent to be a company maker makes it more selective in licence acquisition. It also offers more comfort regarding the reserve potential of its licence areas.

... and is en route to be implemented through an acquisition
Taghmen is in the process of finalizing the acquisition of Petroleos del Norte S.A. (PDN), a Colombian company that operates three fields close to Taghmens licence areas. The proposed acquisition would provide Taghmen with a larger exploration reserve base, a pipeline infrastructure and some producing assets. This reiterates Taghmens commitment to be a producing company rather than a pure exploration play.

High energy prices underpin the profitability of exploration
Rising demand for energy from fast growing economies such as China and the uncertainty in key oil producing regions are likely to keep world energy prices high. This has reduced the risk profile of exploration projects considerably. Current oil prices make even smaller fields financially viable.

Latin/Central American governments are keen to develop their reserves
As the energy needs of these countries mount, the need to develop their hydrocarbon resources has gained eloquence. Governments are keenly seeking foreign investment and have adopted several policy decisions to attract them to their respective countries. Colombia and Guatemala are no exceptions. Taghmen benefits from these developments

Research report (12th May 2006) on TAG in the link below :

Here is the comment from Nick Gay -

"please find a research report prepared by objective capital on taghmen.This covers our existing asset base,but does not take into account any impact of the PDN acquisition.Objective capital has also applied its own conservative geological risk factors to the various prospects.Having done this,they calculate a value for the assets of $84.3 million,well in excess of the current stock market valuation.Removing their risk factors indicates a value of $746.7 million.We obviously have a lot to play for !"

Spot on Papal ! i`m glad i topped up with a few more yesterday.
All i need now is UNG to come good and your on my Christmas Card list.
LOL
DB66

am i right in saying they havent actually found anything yet, but speculation is there should be good finds in the areas they have the licences to search?? any ideas when first results of testing should be in??? definatly interested but trying to clarify a few things. thanks

Doubled my holding today.

Also doubled my EME holding.

DB66, I honestly think UNG is a shake to get rid of a load of small holders, and therefore reduce the size of the shareholder list. Wait for end of this month, March, should motor upwards, I hope so !

Kivver, they have already drilled well 3X, its hit oil, the well had been acidized and pump installed, now we wait for flow test results. They are doing another 8 drills/workovers this year. The news today is a new license and expansion in Colombia, which will mean seismic late in 2006, and drilling there in 2007.

Todays news was known already (see the header above) the big news is 3X, that could push this way upwards. Expectation is 500bopd from 3X, that would be good, but a higher figure would give great upside.

cheers pp, looks like im going in.

MMs screwed me yesterday with my purchase. So I just bought another 5K.

I am making my first small investment in this company also - could be an interesting venture !

Baza

Kivver and Baza, its going to be a very interesting year, so much potential. To put it into perspective, EME has 38.5% share of Eagle North 1, being a well which after the present vertical drill is found ok, required horizontal drilling and may, if all successful, produce 1000bopd in around 6 to 8 months time.

TAG has drilled their first well, done all the work, have the infrastructure in place, and we all hope its going to be 500 to 1500bopd commercial flow, announced soon.

So, EME 38.5% share of 1000 = 385bopd, and TAG a load more than that we hope, so you see, with 8 more drills to come in 2006 and news on 3X pending, I think TAG represents an interesting play. Obviously EME has Glantal as well, but thats high risk stuff, and should have a large discount on it, TAG is all very low risk area's which have produced in the past (apart from Colombia now, but that will be 2007 drilling programme)

Just bought ANOTHER 5K, it just went through. Itchy fingers today, I wanted to buy more TMC but IG Index have reached their limit. A very bullish sign!

I wanted to top up with enough TAG before IG stop taking bets on that too! :)

Sounds good Aerotus :)

Just bought in, Majority buys this morning

"Taghmen is named after its founders children, nephews and nieces, it stands for Tess, Abby, Greg, Hannah, Mary, Emily and Nick."

That is so cute! :)

A couple of large trades today at 61.5 and 61.8p

Could these be delayed sells from yesterday which has been holding the price down? Once this overhang is cleared, we should move up steadily.

Just seen PVR and looks interesting, thinking about jumping on after the profit taking has finished. Does anybody have an opinion on this stock please, only been trading since October so keen on any advice from you kind pro's out there.

Artemis (one the best performing funds) have accumalating 5 million shares got to be a good sign.

Good news today, Artemis taking a large stake in a late released RNS. A lot of people missed the 2nd RNS after 4pm saying about Artemis stake.

Aerotus, I think they were buys today, buybacks perhaps from earlier sells ? ;)

RNS Number:6098Y
Taghmen Energy PLC

NOTIFIABLE INTEREST

Taghmen Energy Plc ("Taghmen" or the "Company") an independent oil and gas
exploration, development and production company, focused on Latin America, has
received the following notification of interest:

Artemis Investment Management Limited ("Artemis") notified the Company today
that following the recent fundraising, Artemis has a beneficial interest in
5,000,000 ordinary shares of US$0.10 par value which represents approximately
6.07 per cent of the ordinary issued share capital of the Company.

More Colombia news :) A second Colombia license :)

From the Sunday Times !

"Oil firm lands Colombian stake

TAGHMEN ENERGY, an AIM-listed oil-and-gas exploration and production company that claims to be Britains biggest investor in Guatemala, will announce tomorrow that it has acquired a large stake in a second licence to explore in Colombias Middle Magdalena Valley. The prospect may contain up to 20m barrels of oil reserves, the company said. Last week, Taghmen won a licence in the same region for a prospect that is estimated to have up to 90m barrels. Taghmen, under chief executive Nicholas Gay, is in pole position to benefit as Latin American oil and gas markets are privatised"

I agree with the "pole position", and it is their intentions over the coming years to make TAG a big player in Latin America.

The Million Dollar question now is, will it rise on Monday and keep rising now with this second good news coming, or will it rise and fall back again ? Wait and miss out ? or go in early and watch it come back ?...........
