GDN - Golden State Resources

A story huh...
ok,are we all sitting down?? good.
Once apon a time there was a company drilling for oil and gas in a beautiful valley in Utah.They drilled one well which was visited by the 'bad drill fairy" who cast a spell on the well and evil times beset it.
Try as they may they couldnt get the well to shine its golden light,so they left it, as they were tired and spent (the money that is)
A couple of eons later a golden stead was seen coming from afar, ridden by a handsome geo called Prince Richard the Borer.
Richard spoke with a voice like thunder..
"Follow me, and I will cast out the wicked witch who beset such ill fortune apon ye!!
"We will set afresh apon our task with brave and fealess warriors, and not callow types who no notteth how to mix cement."
They proceeded with a second well and glimpses of the golden light were seen and there was much rejoicing,and all was good until the bad fairy returned and smote them again,
"Take that Prince Richard"!! she wailed, like a crazy banshee.
The wicked fairy told tales of woe to the good people of the villages via their internet forums and they panicked and ran wildly like rabbits and madmen.
All the time the old naysayers where crowing and strutting like peacocks .
We dont know how the story ends...will the evil,dirty and rude fairy ruin the land for centuries to come or will the brave Prince Richard triumph and The Golden Light emit from all the wells ,spreading peace and serenity across the land,all except for the naysayers who burn up in the flares from the well.:eek:
 
Question????:confused: I have drilled many holes that hit basement way to soon, what did we do. First POOH, Log the hole, set plug at bottom of last casing, time so far 24 to 48 hours max. NEXT we started our testing program.
That VERY next day, no waiting for a program to be made up.
This story about how long it takes to make up a test program has a VERY bad smell about it. The logs will tell them what zone looks good, now all they have to do is work on the bottom zone only, as this is being tested they can draw up test program for the next zone above. This leaves us with two story's, first if the logs for the top of the hole tell them it is a duster they won't want to test the hole,(this will be the end of GDN). Second story, if the logs tell them that they have good zones, why the hell are they not testing b4 for the Oppies expire. They can not use the story that they are waiting on a work over rig, or waiting test tools as right now you have rigs stacked all over the USA. So once again we are in the dark with this lot. Now can you tell me, story one or two.:rolleyes:



pilots,

think your forgetting that they finished the drilling early, so i doubt they would have all the fracing infrastructure just standing by would they !

do you know how much equipment it takes to frac a well........i think not.

cheers. lol

Mick z, yes I do know how much equipment they need to frack a well,:cool: but you don't frack a well first up. you first perforate it, then you flow test it, then if it wont flow, then you frack it.:cool: Now to set up a frack will take all of 12 hours only, you see a frack team is all Mobile, and you can find plenty on stand by just now waiting for work. Now the good part is just now the cost of a frack job has dropped in price big time.

Gee you guys are hard to please:eek:
I thought that was a pretty good story lol:D
Guess I should have put some sex and a car chase in.
 
This mornings pump and dump announcement is a good one,(yesterday the SP go's up, would be good to be in the inner circle, also know when to dump) GDN holds the worlds record for the most expensive well, now they have the worlds record for the longest time it takes to start to test a well. :banghead: Now here is the good bit in to days announcement, if No 2 is successfully it will be brought in to production, what about the first well??? I thought that the first well was all ready commercial, are they now telling us that the first one is a duster, come on, after all the posts I have read telling me it is commercial.:banghead:.
 
Pilots,
4.2mill sold at .083c av yesterday(your pump)
2.09mill sold at .0825c av.today, so far (your dump):confused:
They dumped at a loss.:eek:
 
Dazt49, The insiders will now be getting a little mad at GDN, they would have been told yesterday that it was going to be a good announcement today, what do you think about the fact that No1 won't come on line if No2 is a duster??

I didnt see where they said that pilots, can you cut n paste it?
Was that in this mornings ann?
Maybe you are one of those insiders?
 
They say IF No2 is commercial they will bring the Golden eagle field in to production, tell me this, you all tell me No1 is commercial, now if thats the case, why not bring the field in to production in No2 two is a duster.
 
pilots,
I am not getting sucked in to one of your round and round in circles arguments.
Suggest you head for OPSM and get your specs cleaned.
The only mention of Para 1 in the ann, is this..
"Gas bearing intervals in Paradox Basin #2 are likely to be the lateral extensions of
the previously discovered gas in the Upper Ismay and Barker Creek formations. These
zones produced gas on test in Paradox Basin #1."
No mention of not going ahead with Para 1.
They have indicated in previous ann's that they will reopen Para 1 when Para 2 is complete, by that I would imagine when it is connected to the grid.
Then you interpret the next sentence as an admittal of a duster.

"Testing of Paradox Basin #2 is the next step in confirming the commerciality of the Golden
Eagle gas field. Paradox Basin #2 will be completed as a production well if commercial
flow rates are sustainable."
They will complete Para 2 in this set of operations with the current rig (ie at the end of testing) as a production well.
IF the flow rates are sustainable, they are being careful with the wording there, (surely you would accept that as responsible reporting)
 
sure feel sorry for any GDNO holders out there that got sucked into it ...cant even sell them now ......... looks like a 100% loss for some

hope im wrong but sure dont look that way
 
beats me why they didnt/havent defer the expiry date for the oppies.
Surely the ASX would allow that??:confused:
 
D49, The same question was asked some time ago, the Gurus said that NO ONE can extend the expiry date. Now as for the first well, they have Tbg in the hole, why then if it is commercial is it not on line. When you test a well and find a commercial zone most normal company will start selling that zone, you all ways test from the bottom up, you don't want to have to squeeze cement in to any zone that has gas, as this will give you trouble when you want to flow it. Have a look at AZZ, they found three Gas zones, the bottom one is the secondary one, but they have it on sales, and they have not tested the primary zones yet. If the first well is commercial and they had it on line last year, GDNs SP now would be a lot more than it is to day.
 
They say IF No2 is commercial they will bring the Golden eagle field in to production, tell me this, you all tell me No1 is commercial, now if thats the case, why not bring the field in to production in No2 two is a duster.

The only reason i can think of is that they are waiting for the gas price to come up. If that's the case it would kind of make sense what they are doing, that is is ascertain the viability of the both wells before commencing production while the gas price is presumably recovering in the meantime.
 
from memory Para 1 could only cough up .9mmcf/d so wasnt commercial on its own. :mad:Plan was to link up that flow with Para 2.:p:
This was before the workover rig tested Para 1 again.
IMO Para 1 will be commercial on its own after they go back in and stir the pot.:D
 
So does parra 2 have a commercial gas flow? or not :rolleyes:

Ive followed this company for a while. One would think that they have an abundance of methane. :)

DYOR

Well, if you look at the ASX action since they stopped the drill...the market says they have got nothing.:(
Pilots reckons its a duster:eek:
dazt49 reckons they have a commercial well with Para 2, A potential commercial and possibly company maker with a reworked Para 1 and a 20 year enterprise with the Paradox Basin.
 
Richard has spent $25,760; is he confident???

All of 27k, how much did he get when he sold out when the SP was at its peak, he was hoping this would be a pump for them.:eek:
