Desire 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). Desire Petroleum

Hi all,

Its a must for me next year i think if the shares go to the price i think they will Belingo and Hampi i think it is a glitch in the system on moneyam its like if you keep clicking on trades after doing it you get live trade prices all day for free.

A lot more buys to day and the MMs how they brought the price down i dont know i thought today we were going to knock on the door of 60p today and there was a few T trades went through today as well.

Well Eddie lets see what you see ?


Regards all

Hi all

Better volume today 2.25m, hope it increases as the week goes on. If you draw a line & link the tops of all three shadows (long thin lines on top of the candles from the top doji to todays) you will see DES has tested the resistance area. I think the resistance will be realitivly weak as it is at the bottom of the chart. The open was 0.535p, high 0.570p, low 0.530p, close 0.545p. This indicates the price stayed above the open but had some resistance round about the line you've drawn, which is only 0.0015p away. So all being well DES will soon pass through the resistance area. Maybe tomorrow.





Good Luck All

Eddie

IF the Open Offer is undersubscribed how much will the price fall if at all as speculation might hold it firm ? Last time i took up an Open offer the price FELL quite rapidly , as the offer was not sold out !
This is the big week . Has DES raised money like this before ? Bit nervous that two directors only have taken a small entitlement to what they could have !
Regards

Hi blingo

If you click on the DES link above (24/12/03) you will see the last time DES raised money. This was for the 3D survey, the share price was at 0.10p at the time. DES has had the backing of the market since then. I don't see any reason for this to change. As you say there is always a chance DES could be under subscribed. But I can't see it. With all that potential oil already identified, drilling has to be the next step. I don't know if the last few trades are correct, if they are we may open with a gap up. I hope so as this will be bullish !


Kind Regards

Eddie

Thanks Eddie

Hi all

Hope these turn out to be right.

Prices as of this time. mid 0.5550p, + 0.01p, up 1.83%, bid 0.5400p, offer 0.5700p, close 0.5450p

Bummer it's changed back to 0.00% change as I was typing. Lets hope we get a good day any way !


Good Luck All

Eddie

Berlingo, I would be very surprised to find that the Open Offer is not oversubscribed. We don't have long to wait now !

i see the 200,000 and 100,000 were buys not sells due to time at 8.36am

Not long now Oily i bet there are a lot of traders sratching there heads with ADVFN down.

Markymar, Nice thought isn't it? Couple of days at most now and then Desire will really storm ahead. We should get some exciting newsflow in the second half of the week. Its like being a kid on Christmas Eve all over again!

hello chaps,
Whilst the EGM may be very interesting, from what I understand it will be a fairly formal business like affair dealing with the propositions at hand. There will not be presentations and updates from the Directors like at an AGM (which will be in May).
Given the above lets not take for granted the long awaited lift off just yet. Infact, if after all the expectation nothing is forthcoming, there may be some who bank their allocation and hope to buy in lower next week.

Hi Jon,

I think the news we all want to know is that the rights issue has been oversubcribed and that will be good news in its self.

I think there will be certain question asked at the EGM which shed some light on certain things.

As you said the EGM will be pretty bog standard stuff but questions will be asked and teeth pulled, i cant make it but know of a few people going with plyers in hand.

Just i quick mention that on moneyam are doing free level 2 untill March the 14th just go to investors room and click on code and you have your free level 2
