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.

Just heard on the BBC News during a storyline on the rig starting to drill, the comment, 'It won't be long before the first barrels of oil change the Falklands forever.

Well if the BBC are sure there is oil there!

Morning Master glad to see you on board and hope your holding a few Desire as well how is ADVFN you still have your thread?

hi markymar

I do have "UPS" still going on and RKH was selected there yesterday to move higher and it seems she is doing well since

From a very lefty publication, but very interesting if you have the time to wade through it.

I have my own views but will leave others to decide how much fact/truth/fiction is contained in the article.

http://21stcenturysocialism.com/article/who_owns_the_falklands_01968.html

Decided to dip my toes into the water. Will look to putting in more when the well results start trickling in.

Gordon's Armada in peril.

Although the article has serious implications, I thought the tone might lighten the mood a bit.

Lots of rumours regarding testing 27 API oil and hitting oil
The rig is at Latitude 49.60 South Longitude 59.30 West

Naaaah !....it's a broken down outboard.....please : more details ....

Decided to add more RKH as it will be drilling next. Now 56p.

Very much in as well.....can see these going a lot further....3 chances in the neartime : 2 with current drilling.....plus next well so plenty of chances for sharp upward surges...
