Good volume and momentum,not surprising with lots of news in the very near future.

was tempted to buy more, but it's quite margin-greedy and that would have left my pot lower than i would have liked ..... but certainly looking healthy at long last

">

2 hrours to go and over 7million traded,broken through the 225p barrier,it'll be interesting to see how it ends up?

Decided to keep an eye on the trading today,felt like an effort to hold it back? But pressure of buying kept the momentum,giving a finish of 226p.

Volume steadily rising,10million traded today.

After taking note of several comments on iii yesterday about the asset sale being bad for GKP's board of directors as they have large share holdings, I have put this point to the people who gave me the information.
It seems the decision to transfer the PSC's directly from GKP to the Turks for cash rather than as a result of a GKP buyout is one that was taken by the KRG not GKP. It was necessary for valuation purposes and Turkish regulatory reasons, is not popular here, but will not be disputed.

Gary Parkinson Market report The Times
Published 1 minute ago 17/01/13

To wrap up the day’s smattering of speculation, there was Gulf Keystone Petroleum, chased another 10p higher to 226p amid whispers of an impending upgrade to its assessment of how much oil it is sitting on in the Kurdistan region of Iraq. There was also a rumour that GKP’s legal dispute with a former Green Beret over 30 per cent of its asset would go the way of the AIM company

Day 40: Court Case.

some profit taking has set in, and if sp drops to 200, then that looks a time to buy

Yws it looks that way,exprcting news soon,should be next week possibly from MOL?

And from those notes,the following.

Re: simonfishybits: In court Thursday

wktfuture

I attended court for an hour but the statistics explanations started to grate on my nerves a bit.

I can qualify a couple of the fishy tweets by saying

1) the back row of computer monitors on Excalibur's side of the room have been removed. Nice to see a scaling down of the op.

2) re. Akri Bijeel: the price sensitivity has made the barrister ask at the startof the day, for a private hearing related to the AB part of the valuation. SP said he planned to question that valuation at the end of the questioning anyway. The judge decided to continue in public and "tread gingerly"up to that point in time.
It was mentioned that they cannot work out the final valuation for the interested buyer because it is likely there will be a reserves/OIP update imminently which will affect the final price they pay. I am not certain the term "auction" was used here today. Take it with a pinch of salt, but I do think what I heard ties in with expected news. I am not sure but the implication was that there is a buyer waiting. Stating the obvious perhaps, given there are probably a few potential buyers. But thinking about it, I believe a decision must have been made and it is all down to a value after the next update.

One more thing. I re-iterate that I believe we have been correctly guided as to the outcomes for GKP.
I.e. it seems they are pressing ahead as planned with the sale of AB. Todd in the witness box qualified a partial sale of GKP to mean a management buyout, and a complete sale to mean just that.
The world is their oyster. I don't believe we will get ripped off ultimately. I met Todd at court a couple of times and found him very courteous.

Holing up reasonably well considering the Algerian crisis?

Snow C/Case today,but Todds birthday.

what on earth's the link between those two? ..... they're 000s of miles apart

Chill out,just a little small talk.
