Can we have information as to which broker. Otherwise it may come across like your suggesting CVN is worth 87c with out any reason.

In post #747 Grace quotes Bell Potters giving CVN a target of 87c. And for some time Hartley's have had a target of $1.15.
 
Ok so on further inspection it appears nearly 13 of the 17 million traded was a single cross trade...

12:02:24 PM 0.355 12,921,839 4,587,252.85 XTOS

At $0.355 its well below the $0.38 trades that surrounded it... Anyone care to fill me in?

I think it means when a large institute wants to get out they find someone thats willing to take the shares off their hands instead of dumping them on the market. When your buying that many shares i guess a discount makes it a but more attractive.

Lets hope its JP Morgan Chase & Co and its affiliates selling the rest of their holdings.

Im glad they dont manage my money. :)

anyone got thoughts on the double bottoms at 0.36 spanning over 6 months (22 Jan 08 and 06 Aug 08).

i have read double bottoms can signal a trend reversal and you can expect a run of 200 percent of the previous range. that's a forecast of $1.23
 
The last time CVN was .65 was around the 20th of june 2008. On the 2nd of July 2008 u posted u "were still bullish on it". ???????

I never take comments for more than they are worth but its just interesting. :)

Sorry was out at .45, a typo! , in retrospect, not a good move , or maybe was, if it moves sideways and breaks out on the upside , I'll climb on again, I was bullish until it started breaking down.

I agree comments are worth sba. Its money that does the talking.

Big Ted is buying more. He seems to be the only one at the moment.:D
Glad I have faith in him.:) Oil coming off the boil, but suspect that is only a short-term thing IMO.:)
 
Just did a quick count from our last ann...drilling to have been completed in 10 and 14 days respectively or the 2 wells. We are now into day 18 and no sign of an ann on marketwire.

Hopefully it is positive because CVN continues to look weak. We may have seen the last of the JP shares dished out today with some larger then usual volume and a hefty 4 mil trade.

Oil price firming tonight...let's hope it can settle in the 120's ;)

Keep buying up ted...you will either go down as a legend or the biggest idiot in history (but with all those years in the oil industry...ahhh you decide ;))
 
MORE MORE MORE!!!

TEDDY!

Good to see teddy still buying more at these prices...let's see if we can get some rallying behind him from other directors. Could this be an indirect route of increase top 20 holdings from all (even though they are relatively small parcels being purchased).

CVN is looking very wobbly now...dipping as low as 35 cents to rest on 36. Oil is getting hammered lately but I didn't think CVN would cop this much brunt.

I guess the timing of JP's exit was the worst thing to happen to holders

THAILAND OPERATIONS UPDATE

NA SANUN EAST OIL FIELD DEVELOPMENT
NSE-A4 appraisal well (CVN 40% working interest and non-operator)
The NSE-A4 appraisal well was drilled to a total measured depth of 923 meters (732.6 m true
vertical depth), penetrating the top of the upper volcanic target at a depth of 720.5 meters
TVD at a location approximately 350 meters northeast of the NSE-A1 surface location. A 35
meter thick (measured thickness) upper volcanic section was penetrated and, as indicated by
the loss of over 23,000 barrels of drilling fluid, is interpreted to be highly fractured. The well
is currently being completed as a development well.
NSE-B1 horizontal appraisal well (CVN 40% working interest and non-operator)
The NSE-B1 horizontal appraisal well is currently drilling ahead at a depth of approximately
740 metres toward the top of the main volcanic reservoir objective at a subsurface location
approximately 100 metres south of the new NSE-B drilling pad, within the NSE central fault
compartment.

WICHIAN BURI OIL FIELD APPRAISAL
L44-C Vertical Appraisal Well (CVN 40% working interest and non-operator)
The L44-C vertical appraisal well was drilled to a depth of 1210 meters through multizone
objectives within the F and G sandstones, and a deeper 210 meter thick WB-1 volcanic at a
location 1.15 kilometers north of the POE-6 oil discovery and within the POE-6 fault
compartment. Oil shows and elevated mud gas readings were observed at a number of
stratigraphic levels while drilling and lost circulation was observed over two intervals within
the WB-1 deep volcanic. Testing is currently underway over the first of four potential zones.

Can someone with the smarts please explain what this means? No apparent reaction from the market either way, so i'm guessing it's neither here nor there.

Seems to be another fill-in-the-blanks announcement in order to calm the selling. They did this a few announcements ago. Big time lag between real anns. so stick out something to try and stabilise the s.p. Hasn't helped.
 
thanks MS, was thinking it was along those lines, I was just a little unsure on what all the mud/water/gas/volcanic/fluid loss etc type stuff meant!
 
The drilling fluid loss refers to a highly fractured (think highly porous, channels, wide cracks) section of the geology where the drilling fluid simply runs out into the cracks instead of staying in the drilling hole where it should be. High fluid loss in previous wells has often (but not always) meant larger oil flows. There is a good chance (but not 100% certain) that this will be the case in well NSE-A4 as it is a development well into the main section of the Na Sanun east reservoir.

The L-44C with oil shows and elevated mud gas readings means there are hydrocarbons present but it won't be known if it's commercial until the testing is finished.

You can find out more about oil shows and mud gas on the net. Here's a google book with some info:

Down below 0.345 today breaking the 0.355 support. Likely to test the 0.285 support now. Fuel price low .... gets hammered ..... fuel price high ..... get hammered. No winning with this one.
 
mmm...that ann was just a market soother...and it got smashed on it!

I was hoping to see some more director interest notice's. SOMETHING!

The only thing that can turn CVN around now is an increase in oil $$$ and maybe some big buying from an insto (so long as they hold on to them :banghead:)

I'm holding but ergh (first time i've used banghead too!)

MS+Trade Sim – It’s definitely not a just fill in the blanks, it’s a “here’s an update, we don’t have results yet because we can’t work miracles. Exploration is not drill and oil spouts out of the ground, it’s hard yards and trying to tame one of natures hardest task masters (the crust of planet earth). It is a real announcement that tells us “don’t write off the current exploration it’s still promising”, which may lead us to assume it was just a market soother, however I like to think CVN and a couple of other downward resource companies I hold are more genuine and are keeping the market abreast of any development, not just the headlines which can mask substance any:)way. I am now more confident from the feel of the results (not a certainty, so the prediction is hollow DYOR) that we are in for 200-600 barrels of oil net to CVN in the next 3 weeks. I have grabbed a couple more at this largely discounted SP due to Oil price sentiment being sh*te.
If the market will not stabilise then this is a buying opportunity for me! High fluid loss = potential for NSE-A4 to produce a substantial flow. L44-C is still a bit too thin on detail, so someone else can ‘fill in the blanks’ if they would like to speculate further, but I do guess low flow.
 
There has been a significant technical change in cvn over the recent past trading days. I have decided to go back in at .37 and below are my reasons.

There is now a divergence between the price and the rsi on large volume indicating that the big money is coming back in to cvn.

I expect it to trade sideways or move up considerably in the next few weeks.

Any retracement to under .33 would be reason for me to reconsider.

A very nice bounce off .345

Lets see if it continues to make higher highs and higher lows, to commence a new upward trend.
