However, Barrie Newton, of Rowan Dartington, Petrel's broker, is more cautious. "There are so many question marks. This is a very small company with virtually no assets. It has very good contacts in Iraq but there has been a major political change. We just don't know what the attitude of the new administration is going to be. It's foolish to speculate."


What ever happened to Barry, mixitup12?

LOL!

That gentleman was never positive about PET's prospects (complete f**king arrogant ar**hole), even though responsible for PET as their broker. Rowan Dartington were taken over where he was the boss. He was demoted to a small office in Bath. I hope he falls down the plug-hole.

Here are a few of my thoughts, hope that they are of help/interest.

Back towards the end of July 2007 PET had a mid price of 59p & it looked as though the Iraqi Parliament were about to disband for a one month recess.

Things did not look great for PET's SP in the short term.

Then out of the blue a German Tipster mag put a 14e (9.48p) SP target on PET & we were off.

This was followed by a very bullish AGM statement a few days ago from PET. Combined with a London repeat.

A number of PET BB contributors attended & gave excellent reports back.

These last few days reports from Iraq sugges that the HCL is very likely to pass in the near future (anything from 1-6 weeks). Sooner is IMO more likely.

-------------

So thats he past....What about the future.....

Well I see the HCL passing in September 2007, when is fairly irrelevant...

I expect the SP to rise as PIs feel the event is getting closer.

When the HCL passes (lets assume it does)....I'd expect there to be a dramatic rush for PET shares as rumours & facts suggest that PET is about to win (a) contract(s).

Block 6 & an upgrade on S&L are expected.

If this transpires I expect the SP to rise further.....

Then there is HALFAYA.....!!!!!

We are not sure about this one are we. It will be stunning if we get it.

Telephone numbers SP wise Mr Teeling said......maybe as a joke, maybe not, the telephone numbers that is.

I feel the PET management think they are in with a very good chance of getting it.....& it is on the Website....

So fingers crossed on that one.

-------------

I don't like putting any SP figures on it but I intend to keep all my PET holdings till our Halfaya fate is known one way or another & then review.

Well i think this could really go up tomorrow and i mean really go up, DOW is up 240 odd points and it looks like 6 months of peace in Iraq with a bit of luck.

Hold for long term growth.
Good Night!

Hi Elmfield....I think long term growth it is for me for my bought & paid for.

A lot of my PET was purchased between 60p & 95p...

If I were to sell this year I'd lose 40% of my profit which is xxx,xxx-xxp to the taxman.

I know CGT is a bad reason not to sell normally but in PETs case there are bonuses for a longer hold.

Hatto - 29 Aug'07 - 23:39 - 95883 of 95891


Hi tisi....I feel PET is a stronger play than SEY...SEY's SP has rather collapsed of late...not the greatest of signs.

DCD - 29 Aug'07 - 23:39 - 95884 of 95891


1.85p would be nice for a start, that would pay my boys school fees for the next five years.

tisi. I wish you well, are you still in AHT.


Hatto - 29 Aug'07 - 23:41 - 95886 of 95891

Up a penny until 9.00am, then steady rise to 1.65 by close. onwards and upwards.

-------

I think you'll find our SP rise will continue to be dramatic.....

I don't expect PET to be dealing in 1p's at the moment.

Davep....Not 100% certain whether the GSE is raising the UK PET or vice verca.

Hi Katoema-reference your post to McLellan-I do however live in Ecosse.
Night everyone else-see you all in the morning.

Hatto - 29 Aug'07 - 23:52 - 95891 of 95891


Someone mentioned earlier that they thought that the PET BB contributors held 8 million PET shares.

Personally I feel that figure is around 20 million, if lurkers are included.

PET has only 69 million shares in issue, if there is a rush for PET shares then the SP rise will be very dramatic.

rowe 13.5p to close 10.07% higher to 147.5p @ 2% spread (146-149)

vol 1.4m, .72m buys/.59m sell/.1 unknown


looking forwards to tomorrow's action especially as i expect a much better market dayd tomorrow. the ftse rose well to close in the positive. meanwhile the dow is flying!!

kingdiddy - 30 Aug'07 - 00:34 - 95896


Hatto re the BB collective holding: My estimations are nearer your figure of 20m similarly. I think wide knowledge of this info would hugely tighten confidence here. I go as far as to say SP enhancing as any readers will be in no doubt as to who the long termers here are due to their daily presence, in brief one could reasonably acurately estimate the loose shares in the mart. Would love to know that figure.

Obviously I know how many shares various holders have......I think my figure is close.

Not that many shares in free float.

The MMs may have difficulties in the future as I said earlier, if there is positive news.

kingdiddy - 30 Aug'07 - 00:48 - 95899


Hatto so considering Directors and insti's hold 53% ( 36,570,000) and your informed estimates of 20m from the LT's, were looking at only 12.43m share in free float. That is phenomenal. Going further last week nigh on saw that figure turnover once in the market.

DCD - 30 Aug'07 - 05:43 - 95902 of 95902


Morning all. Can't sleep. Kingdiddy. There will always be sellers about as the SP heads north, as long as we have a few more buyers at the same time to give us a ballance. Better to see 800k buys and 600k sells each day, puts a more sold footing under the SP.

D Express (share whisper) this a.m.

Iraq focused oil explorer PET yesterday hit a 147.5p high, up 13.5p, as retail punters piled in on speculation that major industry players were considering tapping in to Iraq's vast black gold potential. Traders reckon PET could announce contract news during the next month.

Enjoy

Just picked up the Daily Star at work and looked at the "In the Business" Page where the news on shares are. And I'm pleased to say PET have a write up in the "Hot Gossip" section stating contracts could be announced within a month.

spurberry - 30 Aug'07 - 09:28 - 96117 of 96117

I am happy about the press coverage, but Daily Star is not the paper I wished to have seen it in.

Hopefully just a pause to catch our breath before the next run upwards.
