How much is true?

There is a theory doing the rounds that because of the controversial nature of the area (Argentina laying claim) oil companies in the Falklands are deliberating playing down their finds in order to continue to develop the fields to production unimpeded and without political interference.


Indeed they have been instructed by the British government not to report commercial quantities of oil/gas.

Did they ever land on the moon ?

.

The SP will reach 25p before it reachers 45p in the next few years......its now a sleeping cash shell of a compny going no where fast.

Que sera sera ................. What the price tomorrow will be

but

Merchant hikes Falkland Oil & Gas to Buy from Sell, target 57.70p

precio manana bajo 20p al menos.

at "iii" - Beltie - talking at the same tone ..........

12:31 - News Mgt on a Massive Scale
Author's - Beltie

There is a cloak and daggers school of thought that FOGL, along with BOR before them, have been told to deliberately underplay good news so as not to inflame the Argies. In which case we could be in for a run of "disappointing news" from all future drills until things are ready to go to production. If true, not sure where this leaves us as investors, but it may explain why both FOGL and BOR have come up short on what were supposedly humongous sized oil and gas fields.
The hands of Govt could well be all over this at the moment. And there's absolutely nothing we can do about it. At the same time if there is a concerted news black out, then it may help to keep many many people down there out of harm's way.

Are we suggesting another government scandel? Wouldn't surprise me, the govenment fix most things so stock price manipulation would be yet another to add to the corruption list.

re - precio manana bajo 20p al menos.

correct ......

... al menos el precio mañana, bajará a 20 peniques
or
al menos mañana, el precio bajará a 20 peniques
( at least the price tomorrow will go down to 20 pence )


Good try but it seems you will need to go a few more times to the Costas to get it right. The verb has let you down just a bit
I did spend some time living there, and it seems I managed to get it better than you, just like the shares I will say.

This is the funniest - so you are implying David Cameron could be advising FOGL to fake their findings. This is amounting to FRAUD.
I just can't stop laughing at your pure genius.

Well apart from the seismic and Loligo results...this will be on the back burner now for some time I gather....convinced that the sp will recover...but the Irish drilling will now be the focus early next year and that will be exciting.....also the Belize wells are looking good (so far).....god knows what will happen in Kurdistan....

Noble - Bullish on Falkland Islands / 27 November 2012

Doubts about Noble's (NBL) future in the Falkland Islands have been limited to Cristina Kirchner's threats. At the moment, Noble's prospects in the Falkland Islands are especially good, and it will not be a surprise if Noble slowly enters Argentinean waters as well. However, for that to happen, Cristina will have to lose the elections next year. Noble is already active in the Falkland Islands, and the potential profits and revenue to the company are astounding.

Argentina's President forbade Noble and other foreign companies from operating in the Falkland Islands. However, her tactics do not seem to be working in her favor. When the news broke out that she may seek an additional presidential term when the elections are held mid-next year, almost a million people protested on the streets of Buenos Aires. This was one of the largest anti-government protests ever.

Noble has decided to forge ahead with its plans to explore and drill in the islands without worrying about what the consequences may be. This is also because most political analysts believe that Cristina will not be able to retain her post in the next election. That prophecy seems to be coming true, when we look at the mass protests that are taking place across Argentina at the moment.

The Argentinean economy is in shambles and the country really is not interested in the Falkland Islands. Most Argentineans believe Falklanders get to choose whether they belong to Britain, Argentina or to themselves. Industry analysts have noted that as long as the British Navy is in place and as long as the Falklanders do not give into empty threats made by Kirchner, oil companies operating in the islands will be safe ...................

Share price not ready yet to bounce back ( even a "cat bounce" ) maybe this afternoon as the weekend starts for closing positions.
shorters closing ( most do not like to carry them through nthe weekend ) could start the rally.

Argentina. (Fading away)
Cityam,yesterday.
Fitch cuts Argentina sovereign debt from B to
CC,(down 5 notches) two steps away from default,
and put a negative outlook on their dept.
This follows Argentina's refusal to pay holders of
debt from the 2000 default (as ordered by an
American Judge.)

MJ - don't disagree, but a particularly difficult one to call i feel ..... however, there looks to be good buying support at 30, and perhaps that's a level to view for entry .... would you disagree?

No good reason for a bounce in this share........the falklands bubble burst a long time ago and the SFB is a disaster.


If you buy shares in this at these levels is a waste of time its a cash shell of a company for a couple of years......it aint going any where .

BOR is an even bigger waste of space at least fogl have money in the bank

Unfortunately the whole Falklands is a waste of space now, marky.

Bueno suerta joe.

I miss cynic waffling on......... never mind, just popped back to post this for peoples info.
