Star Energy is currently testing the Avington well in Southern England.
This will take about 4 weeks an RNS news feed said, it started on 25/06/06.

I hope it proves positive so we get a good share price rise!
We are 5% holders but i'm not sure how much in pence potential this is worth for the company.

Another good reason to hold on to this share.

Indeed Ricardo, legends in their own tea break!

Only when people accuse me of things I am not doing and never do. That's where morals come into play.

Can I be fozzy bear, I always liked fozzy.

Cynic can be Kermit!

ptholden, and your a typical bullsh* talking moron. Typical of the type of abuser that comes on a BB just to attack anything anyone else has to say, probably to give yourself some meaning in your sad little life.

Prove anything you have just claimed. You cant because its just your big fat gob talking!

tut tut tut! ..... such personal abuse is most unbecoming
out of curiosity TA, of the 140 posts on this thread, how many are yours?

Prove what?

Seems a nerve has been touched.

If you don't want into NOP go away and get a life, children!

i follow a number of threads where i do not already hold and from time to time, having duly considered, i get on board - e.g. RKH, AFR and a number of others ..... thus my questions are not wholly specious, but certainly i question more deeply when a thread seems dominated by a single poster - e.g. NOP and you

with that in mind, is it really so unreasonable to ask how many of the (now) 143 posts here are attributable to you?

.

trouble with vitriol, or perhaps like same, it has little commercial value

.

cynic, if you think its SO IMPORTANT, you go count my posts, because I am NOT your post counting monkey.

As for my opinion on such utter tripe, the fact I have posted a lot of RESEARCH and not that many people have responded is TOTALLY IRRELEVANT.

As I said, get a life!

You're such a bully Cynic.

Oops, SP going backwards (for now).

Perhaps the Market rather than the so called BB experts agree with my own prognosis - who knows.

it was a very easy and quick exercise

TA's first post was number 65 on 22/12/10 ..... since then, there have been 85 posts of which TA contributed 52

so then, 3 reasonable possible conclusions can be drawn .....

TA is a Prophet in his own Land and knows what he is talking about
or
TA doth protest too much, with the result that other members here treat his findings, rightly or wrongly, with a scepticism born of past badly burnt appendages
or
TA is actually spouting a load of tosh

Didnt i use to do that with Desire..........its when your Passionate about a share i think thats the word your looking for Cynic.

i agree marky and hence my post 144 ..... in this instance i have still to be convinced

Actually, all joking aside, all I want to know is if they have found less oil than expected. The rather muted SP reaction would suggest that may be true.

I hold a few NOP and it strikes me the value of the oil in the UK is somewhat marginal. However, it will generate cash - and that means this small OilCo continues in politically stable areas in Europe with greater chances of striking the big-time.
If you follow the Co reports there is considerable oil in their portfolio, the trouble is delay, oil-rigs, local opposition and so on.
Add in that money only flows somewhat later than hoped and the sp of small OilCos is unlikely to be very high until their "reserves" translate into "cash-flow" which this development looks likely....however small against the likes of BP's horizon find.
+Other sites of Oil in S.England are already being pumped and are profitable, requiring very little effort after the initial costs, from 20 years ago. Today, NOP's Markwell-wood site looks to confirm the Co. knows its onions - and for most investors that is quite a relief.
((For, many "exploration" Co's on AIM are operating in other Lands so the punter is easily mis-led by promises of "Gold in them thar Hills" - when all it is a PR machine inflating a few pictures of not very much. (All IMHO).)).
If you're buying NOP, this level is probably well worthwhile, but it could dip as in all things some bought lower. The NAV is said to be at least double - - - - but what do I know?

sounds that EO, XEL, PMO and similar are much better investments
