Main market stock..incredible graph, good transition from Aim to Main market..better keep an eye on this one, not in yet but : possibly a good Isa stock for the long term.

Perhaps not good to see you're back.

If you don't think trading in these markets is a good idea I suggest you go and have a look at your darlings HAWK and RPT.

i'm doing very well on them..........hows vyke doing, that was a good trade for you buying shit that you dont realise

Even at this price HDY looks like a short...

lol

Yes of course you're doing well on them. That's why they've dropped from 45p to 42p!

??? HDY...not shorting yet...one day, I'll take a deep breath and short something...

wrong thread ?.

This has been stuffed today....I wonder how Robbie Burns got on with this : he must have had a fit when he saw the rns...he's bought a lot of these at very low prices so he would probably have made a profit anyway.....at the moment this has precious little going for it...another dry well and it will drop to the teens.

200p is my target.

Mine is 20p.....I did not short this ..should have...

Robbie got it wrong it happens.

Stable @285p.

Moving ahead after a positive Rns.

Yes, better news.

Drilling results negative..heading to 100p.

Krishna Godavari Basin well abandoned, says Hardy


The second exploratory well on Hardy Oil and Gas's exploration licence in the Krishna Godavari Basin on the east coast of India has been plugged and abandoned.

The KG-D9-B3 well was drilled to a total depth of 3,829m MDRT by the Transocean drillship 'Discoverer India' in a water depth of 2,948m at a location some 47 km away from the nearest well.

The well encountered two Tertiary aged reservoir quality sand packages of 70m and 40m gross thickness respectively, in which gas shows ranging from 6% to 9% were recorded.

Testing was carried out with the MDT tool which suggests water gradient in the sand packages.

Hardy holds a 10% participating interest in the licence which is operated by Reliance Industries.

Hardy CEO Yogeshwar Sharma said: "Although this exploration well result is disappointing, the presence of thick reservoir quality sands and the potential presence of a petroleum system are encouraging.

"We will now work with our partner to incorporate the data gathered to update the geological model."

Very sharp drop happening here.

Operating losses at India-focused Hardy Oil and Gas rose to $26.4m in the year to the end of March -up from $5.4m last time.

The group reports unsuccessful exploration costs of $22.6m for the year compared with nil in 2014.

Revenue was nil - unchanged from last time.

The pre-tax loss rose to $26.2m - up from $5.4m in 2014.

Chairman Alasdair Locke said: "We have clear deliverables for each asset and management are fully accountable for the implementation of the agreed plans. Should the status quo in India remain and tangible progress not be made in a reasonable time-frame we will re-evaluate our current India focus.

"The board and management have the benefit of significant experience of other oil and gas provinces worldwide. The group remains in a strong financial position from which to either fund its planned work activity for the Indian asset portfolio or to implement a change of geographical focus."

StockMarketWire.com
India-focused Hardy Oil and Gas posts a total comprehensive loss of $16.7 million for the 12 months ended 31 March compared with a loss of $25.0 million last time.

The latest loss is attributable to the write-down of intangible assets - exploration associated with GS-01 ($5.0 million), property plant and equipment associated with the PY-3 oil field ($2.8 million) and associated deferred tax asset ($5.2 million).

In FY15 the loss was primarily attributed to a $22.6 million write-down of intangible assets - exploration due to the relinquishment of the D3 exploration licence.

During the year the company took further steps to reduce our administrative expenditure, including the reduction of staff, although total general and administrative expenditure increased to $4.0 million. The increase is primarily due to non-recurring expenditures amounting to $1.6 million. The Group expects administrative expenses for FY17 to remain at around this level due to legal expenditures of approximately $1.0 million. Cash used in operating activities amounted to $3.7 million for the 12 months ended 31 March 2016 compared to a cash outflow of $3.5 million for the 12 months ended 31 March 2015. The Group's capital expenditure and investment income was nominal at $0.3 million. With cash and short-term investments of $17.6 million as at 31 March 2016, and no debt, the Group is well funded to meet its current work commitments on the Indian asset portfolio.

Chairman Alasdair Locke said: "Our main objectives remain to secure key stakeholders' approvals and initiate activity that will take us closer to realising production from our portfolio of assets for the benefit of our shareholders. The enforcement of the CY-OS/2 Award would present new resources to expand our portfolio. Through the down cycle in commodity prices we can achieve tangible value creation provided we have the constructive collaboration of all stakeholders of our India based assets. The actions of our joint arrangement partners and sovereign authorities will shape our future in India."
