Sp's just starting to rise.....there will be rumours coming soon....no doubt !......the good thing is that this is just the first of five.....and in the worst case : put your losses on FOGL if this does not come up with the black stuff.....well that's my plan anyway....

If (and of course its a big if) the rumours of them just striking gas are correct, this means they are at the moment only in the upper part of the target zone.

Best case is gas top and oil bottom.

So there might not be news next week, could be looking at week commencing 23rd April for news ?

Ah.....and I thought everything was upside down in the southern hemisphere.....oil top, gas bottom!

If gas has been found they will need an LNG plant as Argentina will not buy it even if they had the foreign exchange to do so.

is any oil major going to invest millions in a LNG plant in the Falklands?

Obviously if its commercial and profitable then yes.

Are you joking?

Well, if the rumours of gas are true this is great news !!

Darwin has a flat spot - which means its very likely 2 substances which cannot mix, hence the flat spot.

One of the worst case scenarios would have been oil on top and then water. This would have reduced Darwin down in size.

With gas this is the 1st key to the best possible scenario.

It cannot be gas on gas, there would be no flat spot.

Top line find on Darwin requires gas on top and oil below the flat spot line.

So gas on top is the first part of the equation, perhaps why BOR is a bit stronger ? Who knows.

Now it all depends on the second fluid - it could be gas on water, or it hopefully is gas on oil - it cannot be gas on gas - LOL

So everything now depends on them getting down to the flat spot and seeing what liquid it is under the flat spot line........ it is oil then this is top line find - gas on oil :) !!

This would also mean perhaps another 7 to 10 days work to get to TD and run wireline, so perhaps news week commencing 23rd April.

i know it was another horrid day yesterday, but the market for bor was clearly unimpressed ...... strangely, rkh was quite strong

Its funny cynic, when RKH falls and BOR rises you are as quiet as a mouse.

If RKH rises and BOR is flat or down a little, we get these silly posts about RKH up and BOR down.


May I suggest you grow up.................. :)

may i suggest that (a) you stop ramping so hard and (b) you grow a thicker skin ..... my observation above is a matter of fact, unlike your own multiple spoutings which are almost always little nmore than wishful thinking ..... i have consistently stated that it would suit me and any holders in rkh if bor do indeed manage to pull a rabbit out of the hat (i know you hate the phrase "fluke it")

The rumours are coming from where ?.....that's the first thing to establish...at a guess : they must be very close to target depth now....so with a hundred men on board that rig plus helicopters, ships going to the falklands and back all the time, there are bound to be some news coming out even if it is just gossip.....

Any new rumours anybody.... (apart from Fleetwood Mac)...

MrP plugged and abandoned

He does put some good posts on here now and again Cynic.....it's a gamble, but I reckon that with four or five wells being drilled ; a commercial discovery will be announced...the problem is that if Borders hit the jackpot at the first attempt : it will be very difficult to jump in at the right price...and as I cannot watch sp movements all the time : I'm in already.....more in FOGL than BOR that is.....must be close to target depth now...

RF, you know exactly what will happen.

If BOR strike - it will be called a fluke and all those deramping it now will suddenly claim to be long holders having brought in at very low prices just after the news.

If BOR fail - it will be called a masterstroke of genius in predicting a failure and they will claim to be short from very high prices just before the news.


Its soooooooo predictable.

not i ..... i always tell the truth

Just looked on iii to catch up, i c pro has started the gas rumour on iii then brought it to this thread.

"RF, you know exactly what will happen."

Back from the ice cold Spey to hear the first cuckoo of the Spring

"Its soooooooo predictable."

much more importantly, did you catch anything other than a waderful of chilly river water?
