Rockhopper was established in 2004 with a strategy to invest in and undertake an offshore oil exploration programme in the North Falkland Basin. It was floated on AIM in August 2005. Rockhopper was the first company to make a commercial oil discovery in the Falklands. Today Rockhopper is the largest acreage holder in the North Falkland Basin, with interests in the Greater Mediterranean region.

News coming anytime now, could be today (Wed) or any day now.

The wait for the next round of news is now nearly over.... ;)

hope you bought plenty at 210 hlyeo98......

if he did, he only paid a couple of coppers over the odds, always supposing the rns does not disappoint

I'm back in on my max stake in RKH again - think we will hear good things any day now! DES should do well too

RNS : "Rockhopper Exploration, the North Falkland Basin oil and gas exploration company, is pleased to confirm that well 14/10-2 on the Sea Lion prospect has been successfully suspended for future testing.

The well was drilled to a total depth of 2,744m and the duration of the rig hire was 35 days.

Work continues on analysis of the results of the well The physical samples taken from the well are currently being transported to the United Kingdom by freight plane, and are due to arrive shortly. Based on that timetable, the Company anticipates making a further update within the next 10-15 days at which point it expects to be able to provide initial estimates of the potential size of the discovery.

Pierre Jungels, Executive Chairman, commented:
"I would like to thank the Company's staff, consultants and contractors for running such a professional and seamless operation during the drilling and suspension of our Sea Lion discovery.

The outcome is great news in itself, but it also demonstrates that small operators, with the correct planning by the Company, combined with the right support from outside experts and quality contractors, can work to the highest industry standards in terms of health, safety and respect for the environment whilst achieving excellent operational results. We can never be complacent in this regard and will seek to maintain this standard with the drilling of our Ernest prospect in the coming months."

Price marked up to catch a few more unsuspecting PI's. Already fallen back.

Oh the joys of the SM.

further 10-15 days to wait for initial assesment of field size, sp below 2, where to now?

Enjoyed a pre-prandial spike! Back in again at 190

avsec do you really think that was wise

Do not be beachy there is ladies about but .........

Traders are closing positions as they were expecting news for the last couple days and now they have to wait again another 10 to 14 days for the potential size of the discovery.

Its a wonder New Labour didn't ban these sort of post cards.

Another 10-15 days = approx -20/25p maybe?

Harry the overall tone of today's RNS appears quite upbeat, the sp may well drift downwards which would create buying opportunities.

DD
Now that they are 183... er...No! The whole lot a sliding with the exception of FKL which is thankfully bucking the trend

halifax, assuming news on lab tests released around 1st June, I would not want to be topping up again before 27th/28th may. Sp now sliding faster than I thought it would.

Harry a lot of people will be thinking the same thing, most important is the estimated size of the find,and will this news drive the sp down or up. No matter they still have ernest to drill.

aggghhh.....

I get the feeling : I'm not going to win on this stock....175p....and dropping...blast...I can't go out for one afternoon without this happening....now look what you lot have done....

the intimation was surely for "proper" news this week ..... if so, delayed news is bad news especially in vile mrkets

"the intimation was surely for "proper" news this week"

I don't think that came from RKH though Cynic, just BB speculation?
