THIS NEWS WILL CERTAINLY MAKE THE SHARES INCREASE WHEN IT IS ANNOUNCED.


In March 2003, First African Oil Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Circle signed a two year exclusive reconnaissance licence with the Government
of Namibia covering approximately 146,000 km2, an area more than half the size
of the UK. The Licence is one of the largest in Africa and the Namibian
Government holds a 10% carried interest. Within this concession area, and with
the benefit of a valuable dataset of previously acquired technical information,
Circle believes there is potential to produce significant quantities of
valuable hydrocarbons. An aerogravity survey was carried out during the summer
at a cost of 415,000 and initial results of the survey are very encouraging.
The final report on this programme is due within the next few weeks.

TheMaster, are you the Phurley from the other board, I hope you are correct have held these a while now, although not as long as some I suspect.

Can you give us any further details, in particular when we may get an announcement and is it Iraq or Oman.

Many thanks.

No I do not post on any other boards. I phoned the company and they told me that the results would be released the 1st Friday in June, complete with an operation update.

Has anyone heard any reliable information on COP? - seems to be very strong - both Friday,26/5 and now this morning.

Todays Mail on Sunday says that Circle will announce next week a deal in Morocco to exploit a major potential gas field in the Rharb basin in the West of the Country.

269sq km area, and in an area with existing pipeline infrastructure.

Good news at last!!??!!

I lost patience with COP about 6 months ago, but this could be time to get back on board........

Exploiting a potential field and drilling with success are a long way apart

News will break today on test drilling now under way in Morocco.

I'm so glad I didn't go and sit outside the COP offices waiting for the announcement . . . . :o)

Whenever I look at this company it always seems to have years of seismic ahead of it. Still not much to get excited about until they have a drilling programme up and running, IMO, but PDYOR.

Looks like we have to wait to Tuesday for the RNS

'Circle Oil, which has interests in Morocco, Namibia, Oman and Panama, rose 6.3 per cent to 25p amid talk that the Moroccan government had ratified its exploration licence for a gas concession in the Rharb Basin and that test drilling had commenced.'

Good for 25-30p in the near term IMHO. TheMaster would appear to have their ear to the ground ;0)

Question will the price of Oil go up? Yesterdays news B.P. running out of new Oil fields. Todays news Mr. Keyes has bought 6,400,000 shares (3.93%) of Circle Oil. Mr. Keyes and others are getting into Circle Oil because of their new oil fields.?. Full report at shareclubuk.co.uk

COP currently in joint venture talks, this has been the course of the sp rise over the past few weeks.

Circle Oil Share price has moved up apace over the last few weeks I am not complaining as most of the members at shareclubuk.co.uk are making a profit. I have read the market news on the company and feel that there must be an underlying reason why the hike has taken place. Any one in the know? please advise us at the club.
