Another month goes by and yet again I ask “should you believe a word that AIM listed Sefton Resources (LSE:SER) says“?”  Data out tonight makes me certain that there is a major issue here and thus, unless Sefton can show that the State of California is inventing production data, I regard the shares, at 1.5p, as […]

Falkland Oil & Gas Limited (LSE:FOGL) made its first gas discovery in the disputed waters of the South American territory that Argentina is claiming again, but hints of uncertainty sent the share price of the AIM-listed oil and gas explorer to a see-saw in dealings earlier today. In a statement, FOGL said all six targets […]

Ophir Energy (LSE:OPHR) did it again. The FTSE 250 constituent has drilled another gas discovery giving the company confidence it will be able to export liquified natural gas (LNG) from its assets in Equatorial Gunea, east of Africa.

Small Company […]

Having advised you to bail at 2p initially I reiterated my sell advice a couple of days ago with the shares at 1.58p after the company issued piss poor interims. But my confusion with the […]

Gulf Keystone (LSE:GKP) understands the art of writing a half year operational and financial report.  You can’t play with the numbers, but you can be creative with the way you present them.  Sometimes it works.  Sometimes it doesn’t.  Whether it eased the pain according to the company’s expectations or not is hard to tell.  It […]

President Petroleum Company plc (LSE:PPC) has entered the oil industry in Paraguay through a farm-in agreement in two licences that the firm says will transform the company into a middle-sized oil and gas company.
