Finley is wrong about Anadarko history. On 3 Feb 2012 at 14.56,a text conversation between a poster in the Casino at Biarritz, and a poster in London, took place. These two posters identified the tail code of a private jet parked at Mount Pleasant in Falklands as belonging to Anadarko Aviation Services, which was co-domiciled with the oil company of the same name in Houston. Clearly the Texans were in town and talking shop.
The London poster had the then Sun reporter, Steve Hawkes, on speed dial and he tipped Hawkes off. It seemed to confirm the rumoured story of 23 January that £1 billion was on offer for Rockhopper shares. The next day the Sun splashed it on its front pages with a picture of the boss man wearing his former US military general uniform.
Anadarko walked away shortly afterwards, and the official explanation was that the press publicity was too embarrassing.
The reality was that the US Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, who had befriended Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, warned Anadarko to back off, so there you have it.
Sam didn’t turn the deal down.
Sometimes there's relevant information on ADVFN that's not on LSE, otherwise I wouldn't bother with what you rightly describe as the " asylum " .
That’s only because Gozzie copies and pastes from here. I don’t think he’s ever got over being banned and now he’s stuck in the asylum where he belongs.
Gozzie actually posts some good stuff on advfn, but the other posters are wierdos.
Finley isn’t as switched on as Godders. His level of intellect suggests it could be that drunk bloke gozzie who got booted off a few years ago and now frequents ADVFN.
Whoever it is it’s a very poor effort it has to be said.
New posters means 1 of two things... New interest in the stock as we get close to the catalysts or the one who wont be named making new accounts!!
Who the hell are you Finley? Juvenile, just come here to stir things up a little?
Well, you just carry on making a fool of yourself, broadcasting your ignorance, while we get on with the grown up stuff.
Your better off pretending to be clever. Yer, I did that when I sold after the agm when they didn’t sell to Anadarko, did quite well. How you doing with the 12p share price. ?
Finley - repeat after me: “nobody is expecting to get hundreds of millions out of the Italians”.
Rockhopper have sold the award - what part of that do you not understand? The Italians are irrelevant now, it’s all down to ICSID.
You’d be better off pretending to be clever if you’d done your research first.
I’ve got no hidden agenda, I’ve just said you won’t get hundreds of millions out of the Italians,
It was that simple. So, please don’t keep shouting at me as I might buy shares and get really
depressed like everyone else.
Free speech dear boy
Finley, nice if you to drop in and warm us all of our ignorance. You may be right ofcourse and rkh may yield nothing but tears. Most here are well aware of that risk.
Most here are also aware that every now and again, a nasty piece of work like you will appear out of nowhere and out of their good heart decide to spend days and weeks warning us all of the mistakes we are making. The generosity is really quite heartwarming. If one were the cynical type, one would almost think that there is a hidden agenda.
No I’m not bitterly upset or angry at all. I’m just amused at clueless amateurs arriving on here thinking they know more than they do.
You’ve already shown us in a handful of posts that you know very little and have nothing to add so nobody is going to listen to you.
You can try being childish as per your last couple of messages but trust me it will get you nowhere here.
Finlay , seeing as you seem a bit slow on the uptake , consider this.
Would a bookmaker pay out before the race is won? Ok they do nowadays but you get the drift I hope.
When the millions are banked the sp will show the fact I suspect.
So Paul Drayton, your the man, the main geezer the everything RKH. Or are you just underwater and bitterly upset and quite angry that you, mighty you, are invested in
this company and you have lost money on your investment.
How dare they. As I said option 1 on the telephone keypad, and Rachel will alter the share price for you, because clearly the LSE have got it completely wrong.
Where on earth have you got the idea that people on this board are excited about the arbitration annulment outcome?
You’re not two steps behind you’re miles behind Finley.
Do keep up.
I’ve read the RNS statements you get £15mil upfront, the rest is all to do with agreements on
the annulments. Hardly life changing is it.
So, surely if you were going to get all those extra millions of pounds the share price would
be more than 12p. Because the stock market is forward looking perhaps phone the LS exchange up, option 1 on the key pad and tell the lady on the switch board to kindly
alter the share price because she has got it wrong. 👍
Is that a plan to keep you all from getting excited.🤣
I don’t think Finley knows what he’s saying at all. He’s about 4 to 5 years behind.
Finley 1 says: "I don’t think your get all those millions promised".
If you're referring to the full OM award, plus accrued interest, don't you realise that the award has been sold by RKH for an agreed sum, subject to FIG approval?
Do you know what you're saying?
As for lack of announcements, agreed it is very frustrating, but I suspect Navitas are keeping the lid on things and maybe HMG in the background too, until the time is right.
We have had far too many announcements in the past (mainly from PMO) that came to nothing.
I'd rather have silence than misleading rubbish from those who feel the need to say something, when there's nothing, or not much to say.
I’m not saying you are not aware of the situation. I’m saying I don’t think your get all those
millions promised . Problem with chat boards is they are not rational places, it’s all emotion,
and unfortunately when emotion takes over, it costs investors money.
It Appears RKH may be saved by the watered down subdued drive to net zero, but It’s still a deck of cards.
I of course wish investors well, and will raise a glass of Prosecco when the Lira lands in the bank account, providing Sam hasn’t nicked it for another placing.
There you go it’s been confirmed by Market dope. Garbled. Essex. Falkland investor. Falky Fakey.
If you’re not sure those are just some of the names he/she had. Changed every time when people realised it was all lies.
So there you have it. From the horses mouth who’s a proven liar. Put your house on it.
The caravan is barking and the dogs keep camping.
IMHO. DYOR. Just yet another gut feeling matey.
Finley you write as if none of what you wrote has ever been considered or discussed on this board. It has - to a far greater extent than your posts.
We are all well aware of the situation, what has gone on before, what is happening now and what might happen in the future.
Sea Lion is going ahead ... 100% ....ATB
I used to attend the RKH agms around the time the Americans were interested in buying the
business. I thought the then CFO was creditable, I cant remember his name.
MOG couldn’t utilise the asset back in the day what with the stone wall the Italians were
sticking up, and obviously sold the whole shooting match for low level millions I think
5 or 10, I can’t remember.
The point I’m making and I remember thinking at the time, they the Italians won’t want to
stump up many millions in assumed profit when MOG would have only invested a very
small minuscule amount in the licence and a bit of development.
Here we are 10 years later, lots of flash lawyers and advisors, trying to extract many millions from an Italian government when probably in their mind the only compensate due is the
actual cost of expenditure, which was nothing in real value.
So, until the Lira is in the bank account it’s an unknown, that’s, er my view.
Apologies if that offends, but Er we are allowed free speech. Something to think about.
"To be fair RKH hasn’t been a good investment up to now, the management are clowns." the first part of that statement by Finley1 can't really be argued with in recent years, the second is also probably true.
Navatas have come on board but I bet they sought out Rockhopper and not RKH management team that found Navatas.
What really annoys me about the management is the complete lack of any publicity for the fantastic project they have, No interviews with any of the oil related websites, No Youtube videos, No PR whatsoever is seems.
Shareholders need to feel engaged and continue to hold. potential shareholders need to feel the enthusiasm that needs to be expressed by the management about what is going on.
All of this in someways doesn't matter, what will be, will be as far as the project advancement goes, but if they have to go back to the market again and raise funds 12p , I am not going to be best pleased.
You must think we were born yesterday.
I think you’d have better luck on a different board Finley.
