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 remember PP and marky not so long ago were predicting the sp would exceed 7. What went wrong?

simples! ..... ever since the initial sealion discovery and subsequent hype, the news has been disappointing to disastrous, especially for DES ...... the collapse of DES inevitably took all other FI stocks in its wake ..... RKH had an unsurprising dud at ninky, but i note that there are to be at least 3 further appraisal wells sunk in sealion in the coming few months ...... i have no idea how successful these are even likely to be (yes, i've read the hype above too!), but it's a reasonable bet that sp will rise in anticipation even if ultimately it all ends in tears

cynic totally agree RKH's failure to capitalise on the sealion discovery has created uncertainty, if they have a major find with sealion why didn't they exploit it?

because the rig was booked to others and i suspect that there was a licence obligation to drill ninky

cynic we wait with baited breath to find out if sealion is as good as it is made out to be.

is that baited with herrings for the sealion?
do you hold any?

cynic we did as we bought into the story, now we are pondering whether to return or take a short cfd.

i bought a few today having been out for a while (thank goodness!), and depending on how things go, just may buy a few more primarily to trade

It's possible that this might be the first share to jump up soon,....we have had a long period with nothing but slumps. Perhaps now this might be the first to shoot up a bit with a good result....2 strikes here so far.....a third and no sp response from a market upgrade would baffle me....

some sp cold feet here today it appears

I'm away next week with only intermittent coverage - any idea when we may expect the next RNS?

not for weeks i think

Great - that will allow me to concentrate on the fishing! Hopefully more success there than currently with RKH.

salmon? tweed?

RKH is one to avoid imo.

Because?

Do tell us when u short it hlyeo......

Salmon - Spey! It seems to take a year to come round again........ so I had a week in April as well!
However RKH had better improve if it's to pay for the Halladale in September

very nice too .... hope there's a good run for you ..... fly only i assume

Thanks Cynic. Certainly fly only and their best fish this week 28lbs. Whilst not as plentiful as the sea trout in the Malo, East Falkland they are much closer!
