Exploration for oil and gas

Borders & Southern is a UK-based, London Stock Exchange (AIM) listed company, engaged in the exploration for hydrocarbons. The company is focused on frontier or emerging basins where there is potential to identify and commercialise high value prospects.

The company’s first project is located to the south of the Falkland Islands where it holds a 100% interest and operatorship in five Production Licences covering an area of nearly 20,000 sq km. The acreage is completely untested. The company is currently planning its first drilling campaign.

Surging up....getting closer to a rig ?.....I wonder if BP. or BG. will get involved...if either of those two did : that would send all falkie oilies up !.

surging up is a serious overstatement ... see what it fell yesterday and how much of that has been recovered

Rising...is a better term...

The review of the Environmental Impact Statement for Borders and Southern Petroleum plc was noted.

No Rig and No EIS.... No Drilling..... Halifax Noted!!!

marky be a good little boy and just be patient!!!

When FOGL hit no oil you will be able to pick these up for 25p no oil no EIS no rig Noted!!

This looks even worse than FOGL! At least FOGL have drilled and dusted BUT satisfied their licence. BOR is just a huge punt IMHO

A postive note in the Daily mail today hence the price up a little.......they can bang as many drums as they want but untill the EIS is passed they cant drill and untill they have a rig booked they cant drill.

Borders & Southern Petroleum eased a penny to 66p but dealers expect the shares to have a run in the short-term. Management of the company which will be drilling for oil in the Falklands is apparently banging the drum on a City roadshow.

marky can we expect some interesting news soon, if so we may go back in sp well up today.

A very RAW rumour on the FT blog today that BOR was very close to securing a specialised deep water rig.

False rumour... that's all.

even if not, i'm sure it will be months before they get the damn thing on site and working .... indeed, is it even possible in those regions and at that depth in mid-winter?

Without the EIS they cant drill full stop they have been trying to get a rig for donkeys and so far they havent when they do it will be a letter of intent and with that they may get a rig for a year down the line untill you have the letter and EIS the share is a sell.

so's FOGL but bloody market seems to have forgotten that!

I cannot see them spudding before April next year at the earliest and the longer this goes on the further that date is pushed back.....look at DES and RKH...it took I think 6 months to get the rig in place.

there are of course other possible scenarios....j/v with the likes of BLT....why are they trawling round the city when they have 100m in cash enough to drill 3 wells?

Why was the EIS just noted? why was it not passed!


A rumour that FIG do not want two rigs down there drilling and if thats the case its going to be a long wait for BOR and FOGL hence the EIS was noted.

cynic....touchy touchy....stiff drink needed.

Alot of share changing hands today for a company not very active

Climbing nicely.
