Grace, I will leave it to you to discect this for the minute. Getting late here.
MAIDEN CSG RESOURCE CERTIFICATION
OVERVIEW
1. Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc. (NSAI) certifies 260 PJ 2C Contingent resource in Lydia
2. All three Lydia pilot wells flowing
3. Seismic Program update
4. Tenders for new October drilling program
LOLwhy does this always happen to me?!
i was just tossing up between ICN, WCL and ECU... in the end it came down to ICN and WCL and i went with WCL... and now this!!!!
anyway, time will tell i guess
Question now is, where is support on the inevitable consolidation/correction?I love this chart!

Need to check market cap v peers, but has probably run ahead of itself you'd think.
Best guess major and minor support:
CSG hopeful Icon runs hot

LIKE much of the market, shares in coal seam gas hopeful Icon Energy have been running hot in recent months, but the company is hoping it will be re-rated even higher after commerciality tests of its ground in Queensland's Surat Basin.
If tests Icon hopes will be fruitful in the next month or two reveal commercial flows of water or gas, the company’s 1150 petajoules of 2C (or best estimate) and 1775 of 3C (high estimate) resources could be upgraded to proven and probable (2P) or proven probable and possible (3P) reserves.
Using metrics for some recent deals (and caution is always advised here because there are a wide range of numbers that can be cherry picked and played with) it’s said this could give Icon a value of around $1.40 a share verses current prices of around 50c.
Icon is shunning the LNG export hype for now and hoping to cement a position in domestic gas while other players have their eyes on foreign markets.
As well as a deal with Queensland utility Stanwell Corp to amass reserves for a power station, Icon boss Ray James is musing on building a very small-scale LNG plant in Queensland to sell to the freight industry.
QGC today came close to equaling its last high. Around 11 Feb 2005 QGC reached $0-74. From memory there was a special public share issue at that time. Today it closed $0-735. The chart has been consolidating in recent times and the price movement today is on the back of a market sensitive ASX announcement. In short QGC is almost ready to turn its gas exploration efforts into a commercial reality, ahead of contractual deadlines.
The following is from the QGC website and is part of the ASX announcement released today.
Monthly Status Report January 2006 17-Jan-2006
Overall Project status
QGC’s Berwyndale South Project is on target to supply CS Energy with coal seam gas several months ahead of the contractual deadline of 31 July 2006. The project is on budget and very encouraging gas flows have been recorded from new development wells in recent weeks.One of the new wells (# 18) produced more than 2 million cubic feet of gas per day (mmcfd) without the need for pumping.

Hi Grace - 30 000 does sound pretty ordinary hey. Hope for all concerned that it picks up.....
Oh for the good ole days of QGC... (from early on - post #35 in the QGC thread)....
I think a few companies are starting to realise why BG wanted QGC so bad, and PES too. Don't think any other mob has come close to these kind of flows.... sadly.
-D
Methane content of 98% is very good, pity about the flow rates though...doesn't sound very encouraging at this point.No upgrade yet from 30 000 scfd.
Well folks, this has been on pump since August 2009, which means at about 6months you'll get a good indication of whether it is commercial or not.
I think this company is not informing the market very well at all. One only has to look at esg to see what good information is.
“The Lydia Pilot has been on production for four (4) months now and water flow rates average about 300 barrels of water per day,” Mr James said.
“This rate has been constant now for a couple of months and indicates the permeability will sustain production although on the low side of initial expectations”.
“The wells will eventually produce gas for a long time but at low rates. We will continue pumping the wells until we see the gas breakout that is required for sustained production of gas.” he said.
Samples from the new wells are being desorbed in the laboratory, a process which will take some months to reach a result.
“NSAI (reserve certifiers Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc.) estimate commercial gas or water production to be in the range of 200,000-250,000 cuft/day or 300-500 BWPD,” he said.
The coals are 100% saturated and the gas composition has been measured in the laboratory at 98% methane with a calorific value of 1 Gigajoule per 1,000 cubic feet.
