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.

If you note in the header there is no FOGL or BOR.
The South Falklands Basin is way down south.
The map in the header is the North Falklands Basin (NFB), the North and South of the NFB.

this thread is turning into the "Rocky Horror Show" so boring no factual news likely for several weeks.

for me there was plenty of factual news, like finding out that south was north and often flat when it was south, and even rather more east than south!

But when there's a south in the north does that mean that south contains east and west???

if you did but look, you would see there is nothing to the west, except argieland which must be falling off the edge of the earth - or already done so as its not visible!

If you lot had been in The Royal Navy in 1982 you would still be floating around down there trying to find The Falklands!!! ;o)
Anyway, after all that we have established that the spud date for Ernest is likely to be soon after the 21st July (weather permitting), which is when the RKH sp should start to show more signs of volatility.

Balerboy : There are 2 big main areas, one to the north of the falklands and within that area there are 2 main basins A) the northern basin and B) the southern basin....DES and RKH are operating here.....200m of water or so..shallow...
Next, you have to the south of the islands and a little bit to the east another vast area with FOGL and BOR hoping to get a rig there next year......deep water 1000m and more...

nothing likely to happen with RKH for several weeks so might as well use funds elsewhere pro tem, summarising Falklands drilling so far 2 dusters 1 success (to be confirmed) not quite the bonanza we expected, but still a lot more drilling to be done assuming funds are avaiable.

LOL - It took 7 dusters in the North Sea before they struck one with oil, so I think the Falklands is doing rather better, as it should of course.
There is of course no point having any money in BOR/FOGL or indeed DES at the moment, they all have nothing and nothing happening too.
However, RKH is still undervalued based on what they have already, let alone what they mind find in the months ahead.
Therefore the wise money will be piled up in RKH !
