Great news released, onwards now:

* Production exceeds original expectations

* Consistent with Providence's stated strategy of increasing daily
oil production

Providence Resources Plc ("Providence" or "the Company") is today
pleased to announce that its new X-8x production well has
successfully been brought on stream in the Singleton oilfield,
onshore UK. This is additional to the X-9 well, which was
successfully brought on stream in December 2005.

The field, in which Providence holds a 20% equity interest, is
operated by Star Energy Plc and is located within the Weald Basin in
the South of England. These new horizontal wells were designed to
develop reserves not presently accessed by the existing revenue
generating production wells. The pre-drill production objectives
have now been achieved, with the average daily field production now
increased by circa 200 BOPD from circa 440 BOPD to circa 640 BOPD.

Whilst the two new wells were only drilled to half their planned
length, they have already added approximately 50% of incremental
daily oil production to the field. In addition, the Singleton Field
partners are presently assessing a number of well intervention
options which should further improve the performance of these new
wells.

Tony O'Reilly Jnr., CEO of Providence commented:

"We are delighted at the outcome of our enhanced Singleton
development drilling programme, which has resulted in a measurable
increase in daily production. This result, combined with our
recently announced Macquarie production financing facility, means
that we are well positioned to pursue our objective to increase our
daily oil production."

Has not moved to much any reason why?

News not in the form of an RNS, will most probally be released with a trading/results statement in the very near future is my guess.

Positive write-up on PVR in the business section of last night's Evenning Standard.

the master,could you kindly post the article or outline.i expect a pull back as profit takers move in and are replaced by buyers.with more news due should not last long.anyone an idea on sp if dunquinn is a gusher.

Newspaper artical said that Singleton production now up 50% and when drilled to full depth this would double again.

master,thankyou.looking forward to news on west lennox which is still tightwell status after nearly 4 months and of course 2d on dunquinn.

PVR's Ireland field is one of these projects:

NEW YORK (AFX) -- Exxon Mobil Corp. Wednesday said it's planning more than 20 project start-ups through 2008 'to produce even more energy to fuel vehicles, light and heat homes, and power businesses around the world.' The comments were made by Rex Tillerson, the company's chairman and CEO, to analysts at the New York Stock Exchange. The stock closed Tuesday at $59.85, down 13 cents.

Providence Resources announce 2005 results
17/05/2006 - 07:52:54

Providence Resources plc have announced profits 127,000 for 2005.

Turnover increased by 30% to finish at 1,376,000 for the oil company.

The company has delivered on its stated strategy of achieving a balanced and diverse portfolio of assets, whilst also increasing its daily oil production, said chief executive Tony OReilly jnr.

Mr OReilly was upbeat regarding the firms programme of activity for 2006.

This includes the farmout of Spanish Point, seismic activity over Dunquin, further potential appraisal wells at AJE in Nigeria and possibly in the East Irish Sea, as well as a multi-well drilling programme being planned for offshore Ireland, he said.

The firm has recently secured a new 50m financing facility with Macquarie.

http://breakingnews.iol.ie/news/story.asp?j=182902008&p=y8z9xz7y4

The Irish Examiner reports that exploration group Providence Resources, controlled by Dr Tony OReilly, is looking at the prospect of massive oil and gas resources from its Atlantic drilling prospects.

At this point the group has the potential for more than four billion barrels of oil in reserve and up to 26.4 trillion cubic feet of gas in its Dunquin and Spanish Point projects, in the Porcupine Basin.

Spanish Point already has proven reserves of 160 million barrels of oil and 1.4 trillion cubic feet of gas waiting to be exploited.

Dunquin has 25 trillion cubic feet of gas and 4bn barrels of oil.

With the low tax regime introduced by Fianna Fl, Dr OReilly, who has a 45% stake in Providence, could earn more than 1bn from the two prospects.

Group chief executive Tony OReilly Jnr yesterday said the prospects held by the company, added to the Corrib find off Mayo, could result in Ireland becoming a net exporter of gas to Europe in the years ahead.

He could not comment on the earnings potential of his father if the Dunquin prospect lives up to its promise, but agreed the estimates on the reserves were in line with the groups projections.

Since Exxon Mobil farmed in to the Dunquin prospects in February Mr OReilly said the status of the Atlantic Rim has significantly enhanced the profile of this area.

Under the agreement, Exxon Mobil will conduct a significant exploration programme involving a spend of 100m in return for an 80% stake. Mr OReilly said it would be years before the Dunquin operation would be ready for exploration, but confirmed Exxon will start seismic assessment of the region in the next few months.

Under the Exxon deal Providence will keep 16% and Sosina 4% of the Dunquin project.

That 16%, with a virtually zero tax rate and no royalties to the State, could see Dr OReilly net well over 1bn, based on the current value of oil and gas and the exploration terms introduced in 1992 by Bertie Ahern and Ray Burke.

Shares in the group rose 1cent in early trading yesterday but closed unchanged at 10c.

In the past few months the shares have more than doubled.

Providence yesterday published its 2005 results yesterday showing the group made pre-tax profits of just over 100,000 for last year, close to previous years figure.

Revenue grew by 30% to just under 1.4m, helped by higher oil prices, with all of this coming from the companys interest in the Singleton oil field in Britain.

Providence is also seeking a partner for its Spanish Point development off the west coast and Mr OReilly said the move by Exxon which is the largest company in the world, has generated a large amount of interest in the Spanish Point project.

providence resources plc said that the 2-D long offset seismic data of over 1500km over the dunquin prospect has been completed. Providence said the seismic data for the prospect in which EXXONMOBIL EXPLORATION and PRODUCTION IRELAND LTD and SOSINA EXPLORATION LTD are also partners, will now be processed, prior to interpretation and integration with the existing data. The results of the processing of this seismic programme will allow partners to better define the future work programme on Dunquin Prospect said

This is an extract of the interim best luck

Commenting on today's Interim Results, Tony O'Reilly Jnr., Chief
Executive of Providence Resources P.l.c., said:
"So far, 2006 has been an exceptionally busy and positive period for
Providence: We have entered into long term strategic partnerships,
announced major farm-out programmes, arranged acquisition &
development financing, increased oil production and conducted major
seismic programmes. Looking ahead, we see a continuation of this
level of activity. Importantly, the securing of a rig slot will
facilitate targeted drilling in 2007."

PRODUCTION

* Increased Singleton production
* 50 million Macquarie financing facility
* New investment club
* Joint study with Island Oil & Gas on oil assets in Celtic Sea

The Company has a stated strategy to substantially increase its daily
production by a combination of increasing existing production rates
at its 20% owned Singleton onshore oilfield, as well as acquiring new
production/development interests and developing existing assets
within its portfolio.

The drilling of 2 development wells at Singleton in late 2005 has
resulted in an increase in production during the first 6 months of
2006. Further work is being carried out with the Operator, Star
Energy Plc, to evaluate further methodologies to increase production
rates and financial returns from the Singleton Field.

As reported in the Annual Report, Providence has arranged a 50
million revolving production acquisition/development financing
facility with Macquarie Bank. This gives the Company the financial
capability to invest in production and development opportunities,
with the support of Macquarie. Over the past 6 months, the Company
has reviewed a number of producing field opportunities, but to date,
no deals have been concluded. The Company will continue to evaluate
both production and development opportunities with the long term view
of enhancing shareholder value.

Externally, the Company has affiliated with a private industry
grouping who identify, procure and execute production and near
production/development opportunities in various parts of the world.
The benefits of this are apparent in that not only does Providence
get a wider selection of potential opportunities, but it also accrues
the benefits of third party technical and financial evaluation that
will complement its own analysis. Currently, the Company is
evaluating a number of proposals in areas including the Gulf of
Mexico, the North Sea and in other proven producing areas.

Within the existing portfolio, a number of assets in the Celtic Sea
and St George's Channel areas are being re-evaluated in terms of
commerciality and various development and drilling options are being
considered. As announced earlier this week, Providence has agreed to
work together with Island Oil & Gas Plc to develop a common strategy
report for the joint development of both companies' Celtic Sea assets
based on a shared floating production facility. This report will be
based on the extensive work Providence has conducted on floating
facilities in the Celtic Sea, suitably modified to take into account
the differing reservoirs for joint development purposes and economic
savings.

extract of the latest interim

DRILLING

* Petrolia Rig secured for drilling in 2007
* Potential for 2nd slot
* Additional rig slots being sought

Earlier this week, the Company announced an agreement with Island Oil
& Gas Plc ("Island") for the provision of the semi-submersible
drilling unit "Petrolia" in 2007, which Island had contracted for a
150-day drilling programme. Under the terms of an agreement reached
between Island and Providence, Island will assign 1 firm drilling
slot to Providence in 2007. This will allow Providence to progress
its drilling plans offshore Ireland for 2007, further details of
which will be announced in the coming months. The results of the
recently announced Gardline seismic survey will also be factored into
the decision making process on drilling locations. A further slot may
become available in 2007 depending on the duration of the respective
drilling programmes being carried out by the two companies.

Additionally, due to the substantial number of prospects available
within Providence's portfolio for both appraisal and exploration
drilling in Ireland, West Africa, and the United Kingdom, the Company
continues to search the market for additional rig slots, at
competitive market prices, for further 2007 drilling, as well as 2008
drilling.

OPERATIONS - NIGERIA

AJE, OML 113 (7.04% Interest)

* AJE 3 post well analysis completed
* Plans for AJE 4

The AJE 3 well offshore Nigeria was the third well drilled on the AJE
Field in OML 113, offshore Lagos, Nigeria and was spudded in 2005.
Whilst the well achieved its geological objectives, confirming the
presence of both oil and gas in both target reservoir intervals, it
was deep to prognosis which prompted further seismic evaluation by
the partners. The partners carried out 3-D seismic reprocessing to
link this well result with the existing two discovery wells (AJE 1
and AJE 2), as well as identifying a potential location for the AJE 4
appraisal well. The AJE 3 post well analysis has been completed and
overall, the revised analysis of the field suggests that the AJE
field could have the potential for both oil and gas production.
Currently, plans are being considered for the future drilling of AJE
4. Further news regarding the next steps for AJE are expected in the
coming months.

Hi - just created a PVR thread in glorious technicolor for all PVR stalwarts and researchers. Normally, I dwell on a competitor thread, so it's up to you guys.

oil,you got me hooked!!!

It's been a while. PVR is doing well but in the last month they haven't went above the €7 mark.. I think I'll hold since Davy Stockbrokers reckon they'll make the €10 mark by the end of this year.
