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.

You are absolutely correct aldwickk. There are a number of scenarios which could affect RKH share price, including unexpected military action from Argentina. Bank some profit & let the rest run is totally logical & very sensible advice. The answer to the question 'Why' is because the unexpected can happen to any company (BP is a very good example).

your looking to be squelched harry..gut feeling not allowed.,.

HARRYCAT - 11 Jul 2010 22:14 - 1958 of 6294

Ooooh! I don't think I have ever been squelched! Yet another example of the unexpected!

Proselenes - 12 Jul 2010 01:48 - 1959 of 6294

Well I cannot see post 1957, so it must be someone I have squelched who has now squelched you... LOL ;)

Harry, in that case you should sell some of everything you have, as anything could happen to all of them, at anytime, so is it best to sell everything now ?

I am more than happy to keep holding, Dr Jungels buying a lot more keeps that BIG confidence vote going.

Proselenes - 12 Jul 2010 01:50 - 1960 of 6294

The line of interest from the Mail article is this one :

The shares had almost doubled to 96p. At the time, Midas Extra recommended shareholders should keep at least half their stock.


So they told people to sell 50% of their holdings at 96p - WELL DONE anyone who did not follow their advice..... !!! ;) LOL

FOGL - The well did not encounter any reservoired hydrocarbons and will now be plugged and abandoned

FOGL stock will be a disaster and other falklands stock will suffer in sympathy, whether deserved or not

Proselenes - 12 Jul 2010 07:27 - 1962 of 6294

Toroa only had a 15% chance of success and its absolutely no surprise for a duster for FOGL.

Luckily the South Falklands is nothing to do with the North in terms of the oil and gas production and potential, and now the focus goes to RKH, the only one so far to find oil and one that is still vastly undervalued IMO and offers great upside.

My strategy of adding only to RKH and holding only RKH is paying solid dividends. Buy the others BUT only when they have found oil, and if not then keep adding RKH, more and more while its still so undervalued and while Sea Lion still has so much upside potential on the 242M barrels P50.

Proselenes - 12 Jul 2010 07:36 - 1963 of 6294

I have buy orders placed now at different prices in case of a dip first thing.

The MM's and shorters might try it on with RKH (why I do not know but they might), however I expect there to be strong buying kicking in, hence I have my orders placed now waiting to be filled on any temporary drop down.

markymar - 12 Jul 2010 08:22 - 1964 of 6294

Did you get topped up Pro as it was a short drop and i expect a rise all the way past 4 over the coming weeks.

Come on the rock!!!!

Proselenes - 12 Jul 2010 08:33 - 1965 of 6294

No, not one of them filled.

Barstewards !

required field - 12 Jul 2010 08:35 - 1966 of 6294

That's the trouble with orders....and sometimes you get terrible prices....

HARRYCAT - 12 Jul 2010 08:49 - 1967 of 6294

Looks like pretty much even buys v sells traded so far, so maybe sp will drift once the hype is over?

markymar - 12 Jul 2010 08:54 - 1968 of 6294

No Hype Harry....the rig drills Ernest next hence the price will rise....level 2 showing a lot more buys orders to sells.

aldwickk - 12 Jul 2010 09:08 - 1969 of 6294

Sold a few at 336p

aldwickk - 12 Jul 2010 09:21 - 1970 of 6294

Harry, in that case you should sell some of everything you have, as anything could happen to all of them, at anytime, so is it best to sell everything now ?

That was a silly thing to say Proselenes , Harry was talking about locking in profit not selling at a lost or at a small profit but shares that have shot up 50%+ in a matter of weeks.

Proselenes - 12 Jul 2010 09:40 - 1971 of 6294

aldwickk, that would be even more stupid unless you quantify and qualify.

RKH is vastly undervalued. A flow tested 242M P50 find is worth around 750p a share. The company has other prospects, not least the pending Ernest well.

With such a vast undervaluation and with so much in the months ahead WHY would you sell ?

If you are going to sell "just in case" than surely you must sell everything "just in case", in particular the ones with nothing going on as they will be higher risk "just in case" something happens.

Why do people constantly promote "taking a profit" rather then "taking a loss before it becomes an even bigger loss" ?

I always see people stating "hang on in for the recovery" - but then the same people say "take a profit and bank it".

Its utter nonsense unless you apply guidelines and proper research on whichever stock you are talking about.

cynic - 12 Jul 2010 10:08 - 1972 of 6294

PROS - you are right that we all tend to to suffer from micawberism with loss-making shares ..... however, there is nothing remotely wrong with banking profits, as it is only when in the bank that a profit can be truthfully adjudged

whether or not your assessment of RKH's value is even remotely correct remains to be seen ....... even if it is, RKH will inevitably be a volatile stock - see the likes of TLW, PMO, CNE

required field - 12 Jul 2010 10:52 - 1973 of 6294

RKH is already getting ahead of itself....so far it has proved to be a super stock, but the costs of getting anything out of the sea floor will be staggering....probably a farm in or such might be on the cards, but we are years away from that.....in time it could be worth 10 or so but we are also a long way from achieving the tenner.....the value in the ground has to be discounted by a hefty margin when compared to the sp value which is always much lower.

Proselenes - 12 Jul 2010 11:11 - 1974 of 6294

RF, how many times do you need to be told.

Based on suitable discounts a flow tested Sea Lion with P50 242M barrels recoverable is worth over 700p IN THE GROUND.

Can you understand that, do you need to be told 10 times every week ?

LOL :)


And of course there is Ernest to be drilled next plus a whole host of other prospects that are now significantly derisked :)

From someone who said sell at 95p saying RKH was overvalued, then to be honest, you have not got a clue how to value RKH, so please, stop trying to :) !

cynic - 12 Jul 2010 11:22 - 1975 of 6294

children, children! ..... if you don't stop squabbling, you'll be sent to the nursery without pudding and will stay there until you learn to behave
