Oil & Gas Sector: Xcite Energy falls despite report confirming Bentley field potential
StockMarketWire.com
North Sea heavy oil assets developer Xcite Energy's shares fell by more than 23% in afternoon trading despite an independent report confirming its belief in the value and potential of the Bentley field.

Xcite (LON:XEL)announced the results of an evaluation of oil and gas properties in which it holds an interest.

The company recently drilled and tested the 9/3b-6 and 6Z wells in the northern part of the Bentley field which demonstrated commercial flow rates.

It commissioned an independent audit of reserves and resources from TRACS International Consultancy.

The reserve assessment report highlighted oil reserves of the type 1P, 2P and 3P in the first stage production of approximately 22 MMstb, 28 MMstb and 35 MMstb respectively.

CEO Richard Smith said the Reserve Assessment Report confirmed management's belief in the commercial value of Bentley and its potential as one of the largest undeveloped fields in the UK sector of the North Sea.

no cynic wouldn't, and actually bought a few back at 223 - wasn't brave enough at 200, and by the time i looked again it had relatively whizzed

well done shoud end in profit here

last 10 mins could see a rush ready for tomorrow early morning spike perhaps

hardly end in profit, but made back a pittance of my hefty loss by selling the above at 240

think i'll go and have a good meal.,. had a good day today.

Oh damn....what has happened here ?.....

shit and derision comes to mind, but be happy that sp didn't finish at its earlier low of about 185!

rf, you been sleeping today?

do i ave down. sold first thing but left a limit order to be filled at 290p b4 i left for work. it was filled but could have got them cheaper if i was off work and following the market a bit closer. Doh. i still think these will settle down and become good.
do i try to guess the next bottom[obviously missed the 185p earlier]?

decisions, decisions.

What say you Cynic, which way next?

regards

Alex

The one day that I could not watch at all.....today......cost me a packet.....blast.....

I've been waiting for this for months and would have reacted and this has been a complete disaster......had to do some work without computer access et voila.....been stopped out at 190p.....jesus......

I have had access to a computer for the year just about every day except perhaps one or two and bingo.....today of all days...

I had a stoploss at 240p and they have done me for 190p....am pissed off like nothing else....

rf - you need to have a serious word with your broker. Whilst clearly your stop at 240p would have been hit no matter what, you only have to check the trades to determine there was ample liquidity for your broker to close your position close to 240p. Seems thay took their eye off the ball and you're paying the price. Perhaps one for the Ombudsman?

In fact I had 2 stoplosses ...one 250p...dealt at 247p..and the other at 240p...dealt at 190p.....today of all days....just no access and thought nothing much was going to happen....
