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.

cynic, thats why the graphic says "Estimated"........

Going forward :

RKH have 7.5% of Rachel, so there is triple whammy upside if DES strike lucky at Rachel :

1/ RKH have 7.5% of any find.
2/ A strike at Rachel would mean many future costs for RKH can be halved (shared with DES).
3/ If DES use the test equipment at Rachel then RKH will get half the money back they have spent on it on their own at full cost just to RKH.

After that there is of course the move to the main market and the fund raising for the 2011 campaign.

The move to the main market opens up the floodgates to ISA money as well as allowing many large funds and pensions to invest in RKH, something they cannot do whilst it remains on the AIM market.

All in all, lots happening for RKH and plenty to keep the price strong, and rising.

i think you have become infatuated and/or blinded by greed, which is the route to perdition - fyi i hold both RKH and DES

now fed up saying your posts are a load of shit, certainly until something is actually proven, which in the cases of J, F and S is many many months away

Out of DES and all in here...gulp !.....

he's jumped ship again!! lol

Rf, why? RKH goes up, so will the others even though they are not directly involved.

Perhaps but not by so much....DES has a market cap of 350 million ....RKH does have what we think is a big discovery.....so on testing results ...RKH might go ballistic...but DES not so much and frankly it should hardy move at all....not convinced by Desire...they are perhaps unlucky that RKH have it all and them ...zippo so far...and plenty of time to get back into DES later....

There could be a situation in the future where Rockhopper is valued at 800 million pounds and Desire at 40 million or less....and sp starting to climb here....

attached is a comparative chart that surprised me no end ..... rkh (blue) lags DES (red) performance by miles!

Either RKH has some catching up to do or DES has some falling to do!

I understand they they should be flaring off gas/oil about now as part of the testing process.

bit of a statement of the obvious for you :-))
i rather suspect some of both, though equally i am long both - think i'll add FOGL to that chart and re-post

robstuff on DES thread has pointed out, absolutely correctly, that it is RKH (red) that has outperformed DES (blue) and of course FOGL (Green) - as it damn should have done

you total knucklehead cynic!!!

Talks about RKH during the market wrap.

.

The analysts comments tie in with my comments, that the share price is held back whilst the big boys wait for the nod that flow rate testing proves commerciality.

After we get that there is no reason the share cannot be trading in the 650p to 750p range just on Sea Lion and excluding the other prospects (like Fox, Stephens, Jason etc... and their share of the DES license drills, like Rachel etc..)

I hope that you are right Prosels.....thrown my hat in here....

Tom Jones say's you can keep your hat on

joe cocker said it better!

only with a little help from his friends

Where ever I lay my hat that's my hope euhhh sorry home....

Rockhopper started at Evolution with neutral rating, 359p target price.

I prefer the Merrill Lynch note - who are a far bigger and wiser outfit. ML said buy with 650p target.

I have read the Evo note, its, IMO, quite pathetic and worth ignoring in terms of RKH.
