Had a look over the road.....they talk strange over there...job to understand.....there's a bloke called Pro..something....must be a distant relative....nobody seems to know anything.....they have taken a long time with this well which you would think means they are testing something.....I would think...because by now FOGL would have the rig because the costs are enormous per day !......so : are we in for a surprise result here ?...our man on the rig is very silent or is it a woman in her rig ?....you never know these days....(dating gets difficult when you can't tell the gender)....

Sul 2 does have a point from across the road : when there have been rumours, leaks and such : sp rises only for disappointment....when there were no leaks ex : GKP, RKH, EO : there have discoveries...might just be coincidence but you never know, .....this well has been going on for some time now.....so some sort of test must have been conducted...

Spudded on the 11th of may....now 15th of july....49 days including wireline.....we are 15 days overdue.....did they stop drilling as long as that ?.....I don't think so....anyway by my calculations we won't have the Loligo results until september.....Stebbing could go either way......real gamble.....but I reckon something is being tested gas, condensate...or perhaps oil.....

Where is everybody ?......has the planet gone silent ?.....

HARRYCAT - 15 Jul 2012 22:27 - 992 of 1086

We're all here rf. Just that there isn't much more to say. Results will answer all questions. We are leaving the 'Corporal Jones' dizzy moment to you! ;o)

NO panic.....no panic...

Borders & Southern (AIM: BOR) reports results from its Stebbing well.

Well 61/25-1 was drilled to a total measured depth of 3060m (true vertical depth of 3011m). The well penetrated the upper Tertiary target on prognosis but was unable to reach lower targets due to anomalous pressure conditions. The lower targets remain unevaluated.

The well encountered very strong gas shows (C1 to C5) whilst drilling the Tertiary section. Petrophysical analysis of the wireline logs suggest an interval (2500m to 2651m) of thin bedded siltstones and claystones with a net to gross of 36% and an average porosity of 19%. Due to the thin bedded character of this sequence it was not possible to obtain a clear indication of the fluid type or saturation. The geophysical anomalies identified on seismic are coincident with this zone containing hydrocarbons. Our initial assessment is that this upper target is unlikely to be commercial although further technical evaluation is required.

Strong gas shows continued below the upper target. However, progress was slow due to lost circulation and well flows which occurred in consecutive hole sections. Several of these flows contained gas. On each occasion the well was successfully controlled but it became necessary to set additional strings of casing, using the contingency casing considered in the well design. In the final 6" hole section, the fluid pressures continued to rise giving further well flows and it became impossible to continue drilling whilst maintaining well integrity. A decision was therefore made to cease drilling.

It is very disappointing not to have reached all the potential reservoir targets in this well. The geological and engineering data will now be reviewed in detail in order to understand the complexities of this prospect.

The Company now intends to plug and abandon the well in line with regulatory requirements and assign the rig to Falkland Oil and Gas. An announcement will be made once this has been completed.

Not good....all eyes on Loligo now...

cynic - 16 Jul 2012 08:07 - 996 of 1086

glad i had already cut my holding to fairly minimal

markymar - 16 Jul 2012 08:09 - 997 of 1086

Hope you did not have to much invested RF,i hope we have a good run with FOGL.

tony727 - 16 Jul 2012 08:10 - 998 of 1086

Very glad I took my profits at 1.20p

cynic - 16 Jul 2012 08:11 - 999 of 1086

does BOR have any value at all?

markymar - 16 Jul 2012 08:13 - 1000 of 1086

Very little in my eyes it was over hyped and over priced as you know my feelings about it.

Guess Pro only has FOGL to ramp now to which i am holding for now.

Balerboy - 16 Jul 2012 08:14 - 1001 of 1086

glad i wasn't in at all......

required field - 16 Jul 2012 08:14 - 1002 of 1086

Had some.....it was a gamble....but mostly in FOGL.....perhaps too many FOGL....better pray one of these next two wells comes right....

HARRYCAT - 16 Jul 2012 08:19 - 1003 of 1086

Money to be made with the FOGL stock imo, as it's already down 10% on the back of the BOR duster. Am expecting the usual hype, spud, TD approach opportunities to buy & sell.

required field - 16 Jul 2012 08:23 - 1004 of 1086

Worst result of all, they did not even complete the well.....anyway already out and all in FOGL......Loligo is I think 150 miles away.....so it will take time....

required field - 16 Jul 2012 08:32 - 1005 of 1086

Can't believe it...but there are some buys here.....

tony727 - 16 Jul 2012 08:46 - 1006 of 1086

Harrycat

I agree ! but hold off for a week or two I see 50p coming in the near future

cynic - 16 Jul 2012 08:57 - 1007 of 1086

bollocks .... why would anyone want to buy these shares except to close a short position?
