HI/ All
Iam a newby to this bb, i wen't back about 4 pages looking to see if there was a Dragon Oil thread, didn't see it perhaps i didn't go back far eneough.Any one any views on how far the sp might go with this one, with the talk about China and Lukeoil looking to buy up all the oil shares they can, imho i think this one could do very well, have held 4 years now so i would get a good return , but i think if i hang on i will get an even better one, any views anyone?
cheers

lets hope the results are all honky dorey, if so then we should see 2+ very soon

''hOnky dorey''??

honky dorey= all is going as planned,even better

Anyone any idea for the drop in SP despite such good results?

Up 7p. today so far,agreat stock to have, see rise over last year.

on the turn north, after good news today of back to full production,looking for aboVe 230 by weekend.

Back on the 06/04/04 I bought 5000 of these for 38.25, costing me a meare 1944.13. 2 years down the line the offers 200 worth 10K....... I wish I'd held onto these..... Having said this I may be back, DGO is the best placed share if Iraq ever calms down to exploit the northern fields and already has a Kazakhastan workforce and good infrastructure to support...

which way?

It's like a dead body. No attention!1 Why?

PRESS RELEASE

DRAGON OIL plc
('Dragon' or the 'Company')



SIGNING OF CONTRACT FOR JACK-UP DRILLING RIG


Dragon announces that it has signed a contract with Lukoil Shelf Limited
('Lukoil') for provision of the Astra jack-up drilling rig ('Astra') for use in
the Cheleken Contract Area offshore Turkmenistan.


The Astra is expected to commence drilling operations for Dragon in the Cheleken
Contract Area from early September 2006 and the initial contract duration will
be six months.


Dragon plans for the Astra to drill one development well in the LAM field and
one exploration well (which may have an optional sidetrack) in a near-field
prospect known as LAM West. This near-field prospect of LAM West has been
identified from data acquired and processed from the recent Marine 3D Seismic
Survey carried out over the entire Cheleken Contract Area.


Engineering works are in progress to support the planned well activities for the
additional Astra rig. These engineering works include the installation of
additional drilling slots on two existing platforms and the future installation
of topside facilities and sub-sea pipelines.


Hussain M. Sultan, Chairman of Dragon commented:

'I am very pleased that we have secured the Astra from Lukoil Shelf Limited. Our
field development plan, utilising the services of a second drilling rig, will
enable Dragon to fully explore, appraise and develop the Cheleken Contract Area.
We view the signing of the contract for the Astra, albeit for six months, as an
important milestone in our continued growth.


The identification of the near-field prospect of LAM West from the results of
the Marine 3D Seismic Survey shows us just how important the Marine 3D Seismic
Survey was to our planned filed development. '
