http://www.gulfkeystone.com/ The firms exploration programme in Algeria is going well and "the shares look good value", say the Investors Chronicle. Your comments please. goal.

will be buying on any dips.

nice rise again this morning-we have lift off!!

certainly going strongly again ...... had a little clear out this morninhg and took my modest profit here .... looks to have been premature

Very imo cynic.

Loads more to come pre drill, may go a bit flat once they start to drill as it will take over 100 days to drill through 5 prospective senimentry layers to td, cant see anything but up overall.

when's drilling scheduled?
i'm sure there's an rns knocking about, but too lazy to find it

Spud any day now.

thanks ..... am sure that's a much more accurate story than the crap on the MRP site!

will tomorrow be the day for good news? lets hope so

cynic, spud at pontiac over a week ago. 15/20 days to reach td.

Cynic, now stay out of these and let us enjoy a bit more rise. lol you know what you did to CFM. reckon you shorted that one and put the mockers on for the rest of us.

Spudding expected today, may get an RNS today otherwise Monday.

Thanks to unionhall over there for that.

I am amazed due to the news that this one has not taken off

"Gulf Keystone Petroleum has successfully spudded its first well in Kurdistan.

The firm said drilling on its first exploration well, Shaikan-1, on the Shaikan Block, is anticipated to take four to five months to complete.

The Shaikan Block is situated near the city of Dihok, approximately 85 kilometres north-west of Erbil and covers an area of 283 square kilometres."

Good funding at 14.5p....that should be a good sp floor for this stock...20p here we come and if we strike anything like Heritage....well...the sp will fly !.

I foolishly sold my hoil and missed all this excitement----I'm not making the same mistake here!! hanging on tight for the rocket to take off-anytime in the next 2 months.

Its getting ready to take off new hoil in the making.

Some great increases on smaller oilies and miners at the moment....let's hope the market doesn't tank...perhaps there is no bad news at the moment and the flu is not so bad as feared which is helping the minnows.

Should stimulate a bit of interest in Kurdistan Oilers.

On a breakout

Seems to be strong buying by a large player, which is gradually taking up a sellers stock.

PI's riding on the back of it, but fine, lets hope the buyer is willing to push this up to 30p in the weeks ahead.
