Exploration for oil and gas

Borders & Southern is a UK-based, London Stock Exchange (AIM) listed company, engaged in the exploration for hydrocarbons. The company is focused on frontier or emerging basins where there is potential to identify and commercialise high value prospects.

The company’s first project is located to the south of the Falkland Islands where it holds a 100% interest and operatorship in five Production Licences covering an area of nearly 20,000 sq km. The acreage is completely untested. The company is currently planning its first drilling campaign.

I honestly thought the share price would have tumbled today, so far the drilling campaign has been a disaster in the meaning of problems with the rig. Expect to lose another weeks drilling time.

I am not sure who is footing the bill but it’s going to be very costly.

"......campaign has been a disaster...." No it hasn't marky! Problems certainly, but no way is it yet a disaster. You seem to be permanently negative on this stock for some reason, which may be clouding your judgement slightly!

O yes it has Harry!!!!,well spud 1st of Feb......we are now in the 5th of March with a possible 20+ days of problems where no drilling has taken place.No word from the company of problems.


Nothing a matter with my judgement i will buy back in if the SP slumps if not i am happy watching from sidelines.

We'll agree to differ then on our definitions of 'disaster'.

This is what happens in deep water drills, this is the oil and gas world. They could get going and press onto total depth with no further problems, or the could encounter pressure causing further delays or maybe break an extender or something. No rns yet so can't imagine this will spook experienced investors, those selling the hype buying the news watch out!

Borders & Southern Petroleum retains 'buy' rating at Merchant Securities after Darwin well spud

still no drilling,waiting on parts.zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

more likely they're waiting for oil to be created under the seabed :-)

Well it over 20 days + no drilling,depends when parts come then how long to fix and test.

What else can happen next......

the crew will be seduced by mermaids

Where do you get this information from ?....no rns about drilling being suspended....

When u work down a mine RF you hear alsorts,u just have to trust me on this one,so far my info been bang on,days a head of iii or ADFVN.

Pro is saying drilling back on......not at all,this is going to cost someone big time,now will BOR have to pay some of the costs?

Why not send an email to Bor ask them who is paying for the 20+ days out of action?

....u just have to trust me..!!! LOL, now where have I heard that before?
I think marky is just trying to drive the sp down so he can get on board! ;o)

Insurers...perhaps...there should be a rns......as far as I'm concerned : no rns no problem....though perhaps the delay if there is one does not warrant information to be supplied to the market....

Perhaps it's time to rent a zodiac or sorts out from Port Stanley and go and have a look for ourselves !....

Go for it rf! You might need something a bit more substantial than an inflatable though. Of course, your deployment in a sizeable boat would enhance our naval capabilities and give the Argies something to think about!

Right...first I shall have to cross the atlantic top to bottom.....might stop off at tenerife on the way.....might need at least 200 horse power....and a few jerrycans of junglejuice.....boy !...what a trip.....and when I get there, I'll shout out in a posh english accent "I say up there can you tell me whether you've struck oil or not ?".....might even pretend to be out of fuel and they take me abord...yeahhh...great idea.....but on second thoughts it sounds like a plan devised by rik mayall or adrian edmonson in bottom.....or something from blackadder...

rf tgif good lunch?

?

Just been on iii,there are people shouting a sell as results due, they havent a clue. delete them.

i Said RF trust me... delete me if wrong.first week of April or second depending on delays...time will tell.
