On the surface it looks good, a total of 90 million shares on offer at the end of offer, already has 50 million.

Their is a seismic data specialist in the dealing offering first pick of data for Texon, through another company Wandoo until June 2012. Primarily in the Texas gulf region.

Any thoughts on this one? I know Oil and Gas IPO, not expecting a U movement on SP.
 
TXN Texon petroleum

I found a txn thread through searching but i couldnt see it in the q-z forums so i'll start this one.

this seems to be a relatively new company with not much exposure. it's had alot of good news recently but hasnt seemed to recover from the other weeks plummet. they just announced another well for gas that came on line adding to their previous wells. seems like wherever they drill they get gas! its currently at an all time low without any real fundamental reason to be. perhaps a bargain? not much action buying and selling though.

anyone else hold this with any thoughts?
 
I've held this for a few months without much joy. I just happened to buy at the high when I thought it was about to do great things. But, it took a serious hit on 10th Dec with the Bondi announcement of a duster. It fell from high 60's to low 50's and has been on a slide ever since. Positive news such as today's announcement are virtually ignored by the market. Still think it has great potential but it may take some time to see results.
 
Surely today's announcement will give the SP some foward momentum. Can anyone tell me how the flow rate stands up ?

Texon Petroleum (?Texon?) advises that a production test of the 5.8 metre (19ft) gas bearing
formation referred to in the Company?s release of 24 January 2008 has flowed gas at a
gross rate of 765 mcfgpd.
Surface production facilities are in place and it is now planned to construct a pipeline to
connect the well for production for gas sales from this zone. This is expected to occur within
the next four weeks.
 
Not sure how it rates compared to other company production rates but from a quick calculation they now have around 2500mcfgpd in sales?

Slight lift in sp today but seems slow out of the starters box for this one. They only have about 90million shares on issue so maybe every is holding them tight. Just no one seems to want to purchase them atm.

Will be interesting to see the next quarterly report which will actually contain sales of gas amounts in dollars.
 
Are we seeing the beginning of a turnaround for this stock? On daily charts, the MACD has crossed the signal line and it is above the 14-day EMA. Volume is still light but there are more buyers than sellers. Early days yes, but things are looking better.
 
YAMBA #1 – PRODUCTION TEST RESULT
ONSHORE GULF COAST, SOUTH TEXAS, USA
Texon Petroleum (“Texon”) advises that a production test of the upper zone of the gas
bearing formation referred to in the Company’s release of 7 February 2008 has a thickness
of 4.3m (14ft) and has flowed gas at a gross rate of 507 mcfgpd. Further studies concluded
that the lower 2ft zone did not warrant testing.
Surface production facilities are in place and it is now planned to construct a pipeline to
connect the well for production for gas sales from this zone. This is expected to occur within
the next four weeks.
 
things are looking better on this iceman - 5 out of 6 wells being connected to pipes... if it can find the 40c support - find a bit more volume - push through 46c, then could be heading for the 52-58c range. OK fews 'ifs' there -positive news and gas flow needs to continue...

Am still hopeful on this but it may take some time (if you've got it). Looking weaker the last few days. But agree, needs to find some support in the 40's before touching the recent high of 47c.
 
Just in case anyone was wondering what TEXON was up to.

AVOCA #1
ONSHORE GULF COAST, SOUTH TEXAS, USA
Texon Petroleum Ltd (“Texon”) advises that the drilling of Avoca #1, the fourth well of its
2008 shallow program, commenced on 25 February 2008. It has a planned total depth of
2,073m (6,800ft) with an estimated gross gas resource potential of 0.5-0.6bcf.
Avoca #1 targets a deeper formation than the previous three recent Texon discoveries.
Initial flow rates from wells nearby to Avoca have been between 0.85 and 1.5mmcfgpd.
Texon will have a 96.67% working interest (72.50% net revenue interest) if the well is
successful.
After Avoca is drilled, Texon’s 2008 shallow drilling program will recommence in 4 to 6
weeks. At that time, the next two wells (fifth and sixth in the 2008 program) will likely be
Duranbah, which has a 3 - 4bcf target and Tallebudgera which has a target of 0.3 - 0.4bcf.
The Company plans to drill two or three shallow wells a quarter for the remainder of 2008.
 
I seem to be Robinson Crusoe on this thread. But another positive announcement from this company which I believe is going places. Still tightly held but should hit 50c again soon, IMHO.

AVOCA #1 – PRODUCTION TEST RESULT
ONSHORE GULF COAST, SOUTH TEXAS, USA
Texon Petroleum (“Texon”) advises that a production test of the lower of the two (2) gas
bearing formations referred to in the Company’s release of 13 March 2008, and which has a
thickness of 8m (25ft), has flowed gas at a gross rate of 1.49 million cubic feet of gas per
day and 30 bopd, the highest test flow rate so far achieved by a well in Texon’s shallow
drilling program.
Surface production facilities are in place and it is now planned to construct a pipeline to
connect the well for production for gas sales from this zone. This is expected to occur within
the next few months.
Texon has a 96.67% Working Interest (WI), (72.5% Nett Revenue Interest (NRI)) in the well.
 
txn continues to have success with its drilling - the close above 50c today was impressive and now looks to be forming an uptrend... about to start drilling the deeper wells which if successful will continue that trend...
 
could not agree more. I thought it would spend a bit more time consolidating in high 40's but today's close of 59c is pretty damn good. can't wait for my patience to be rewarded. keep the good results coming.:)
 
recent rise just failed to test record highs at 0.75 - on no particular news so likely some are punting on the fact TXN will replicate the shallow well success with the deep well drilling... consolidation around the 0.58-0.62 mark would be nice to see, and then have another go at cracking 0.75 and beyond
 
Does anyone think this stock is ever going to go anywhere. There seems to be good announcements but never seems to be any support for the news??
 
I've bought a small parcel of late for around 24 cents. It looks to have good upside from here. Next months balance sheet willl tell a good tale.
Anyone around here still on board?

Interesting nick and interesting first post. Do you look anything like this?

Tell me more about Texon. Why I should choose to place my hard-earned with them? Thoughts?
