VPE - Victoria Petroleum

Jump to new
I doubt if it will do much for VPE. Not exactly a gusher and only 25% interest. It may end up funding itself and maybe fund another dry one. It didn"t help my options price which is showing in dark red ink. It hasn"t restored my confidence. All I can say is that it was a minor positive and I still have a ticket in the VPE lottery.

We have gas flowing from the first well at Don Juan, more than a tad promising this time: http://www.asx.com.au/asxpdf/20071112/pdf/315rh3zfz97t90.pdf

I have done a little bit of research on BOW the JV partner (see bow thread) I think the CSG project is a great step forward for all companies involved, BOW is a spin off company from Arrow energy so these guys know their CSG and are also wanting to fast track the Don Juan project, sales could be as early as next year.

VPE are up 3.5 cents to 16 cents on the news, surely we haven't got a breakout. Some have waited four years for this and they deserve some money back. From memory, the stock peaked at the equivalent of 75 cents in 2003/4.
 
Great news!!!:D
Ive been holding onto this one, just waiting. I think we will have more good news to come and with POO and gas up ATM things are looking up. Also Grenearth Energy is due to IPO soon... not sure on exact date but exciting things to come IMO.
Heres a snip of the BOW Ann:

ASX Announcement​
12 November 2007
First well of the Don Juan CSG Project flows gas at 370,000 cfd
The directors of Bow Energy Limited (Bow) are pleased to announce that the first exploration well of the Don Juan CSG (Coal Seam Gas) Joint Venture (Bow 45% and operator), Taringa South-1, is at a depth of 188 metres. A test at 145 metres over the open hole section of the well flowed methane gas to surface at a stabilised rate of 370,000 cfd with 57 psi flowing pressure using a ½” orifice. Post gas flow testing water rate was estimated at 407 barrels per day.
The current operations are wireline logging and completion preparations.
Taringa South-1 is the first well of a planned three well (2 firm plus 1 optional) CSG exploration drilling program.
The Joint Venture plans to case and suspend the initial exploration wells as future pilot production holes in order to carry out flow and production testing. Assuming positive results of the initial pilot wells, a process of reserve certification should commence early in 2008.
The nearest natural gas pipeline is situated just 8 km east of the permit.
Bow’s Managing Director, Ron Prefontaine, commenting on the CSG exploration results stated:
“This an excellent result for Bow’s first CSG exploration well and is a very positive first step for the Don Juan CSG Project which has the potential to place the company on the fast track towards substantial CSG reserves as early as next year.
The Don Juan CSG Project is located immediately west of Sunshine Gas Ltd’s Lacerta CSG Project. The Lacerta Project currently has certified methane gas reserves of 469 PJ (2P) to 1097 PJ (3P).
Bow interprets the primary CSG fairway continues west from Lacerta extending into the Don Juan Project area where it overlies about 900 square kilometres of the interpreted fairway.
Bow’s Phase 1 exploration/appraisal program consists of flow testing the three initial pilot wells, and assuming positive results, coring and additional pilot wells as required to achieve commercial reserve certification over a target area of 463 sq km.
The planned timing for the commercialisation of the Don Juan CSG Project coincides with the projected increase in demand and resultant upward pressure on prices for natural gas in the Eastern seaboard.

Happy to hear its moving forwards and recovery of funds are underway, the first well took around 11 days including repair down time, expect more results to follow with the next holes in coming weeks. :cool:
 
VPE trade today at 17.5 cents as they continue their recovery following news from Taringa South-1 and earlier news on the Don Juan Project.
 
yes. Yet another good day for VPE, I think someone knows that this one might be ready to run. Should be interesting to see where they will go if they get a few more positive drills.

There certainly is a feeling of more excitement in the drilling prospects after drilling away non-stop for 6 years and never finding that much.
The move into Victoria with Greenearth sets up something very worthwhile that Victoria Petroleum are proud of.

Closed at 18 cents, up 50% on last months low point.
 
I agree.
We have an announcement out today about a SPP, see below.
Will anyone be taking this up? the offer of $0.13 is ok but what will this mean for the price of the current shares, will they reach for 13c?

Hi The Mint Man, This is definitely going to be a drag on Victoria Petroleum stock. As you suggest, there is a chance of VPE testing 13 cents again, often happens in these cases.
 
:)

FWIW ... there's more downside expected for VPE, especially around:

04-07012008 ..... negative news expected here

16012008 ..... negative spotlight will be focused on VPE !~!

21012008 ..... minor cycle

14-15022008 ..... 3 negative cycles here

18022008 ..... minor and positive (intraday)

10-11032008 ..... 2 cycles ... minor news expected

14-17032008 ..... positive spotlight on VPE

31032008 ..... positive news expected

02042008 ..... positive cycle ... finance-related???

... and VPE is already trading under the longer MAs ... :)

Happy New Year

VPE at 19c per share today - probably because of buying by ODIN. I'm sure shares are still drastically undervalued though their value has risen by 50% in recent weeks.

The ODIN bid to replace the board of VPE is not worth supporting if they intend dumping the Surat Basin Coal Seam Gas Project. They are awfully quite on this issue.
 
I hope few people accept this offer of 17 cents a share by Odin Energy, as the prospects, speculative of course, for VPE make this company an excellent prospect.

Ask yourself, "why are Odin Energy making this offer?" and the reason is it would have to pay more purchasing the stock in the market place. Are they doing you a favour, no way, they're doing Odin Energy a favour.

At 19.5 cents today Odin need to offer a lot more for VPE.
 
And now Qld Gas have jumped in for 7% stake. Things are warming up:D

what next for 100 words or less?
