But they can't time an important RNS weeks in advance, as any news needs to be reported in a timely manner?

A well-known, and much-loved, figure...

Malcy (pronounced 'Malky') is a former banker (I believe) who writes a blog about the oil industry shares:

He is a well-known figure among private investors in the oilies.

Could anyone who has access to these charts post one somewhere please?

A tool to chart market cap over time (like you can for cryptocurrencies) would be fab.

I'm sure the institutions will have one.

BBS also puts me in the mind of the Bulleting Board Schemes... Over The Counter (OTC) Bulletin Board shares:

Boiler Room = a type of scam
In business, the term boiler room refers to an outbound call center selling questionable investments by telephone

BBS = Buy Back Scheme, if that's what your thinking of Keith1

No offence meant if anyone is holding GWMO, but maybe they're all selling up to buy some BPC!!

IF that news is good...

VCB2 - I thought you were referring to Simon Potter's middle name there... but we all know that's 'Harry' !!

You're welcome, jayflash.
LSE doesn't seem to like certain websites. Fortunately, TinyURL isn't one of them.

From paragraph 7 of the article:
"BPC’s original agreement with the Government effectively gives this nation a 50/50 profit split if it discovers commercial quantities of oil, with the company paying a sliding scale of royalties between 12.5-25 per cent, depending on how much volume is recovered daily."

In effect, they're blogger/journalists who probably get paid by the adverts on their websites.

I seem to remember there were blockades by truckers when the oil was that high in the early year 2000s.
There was pressure on PM Tony Blair to ease the fuel duty.

With inflation, a $200 price in the next few years won;t even be as high as that $160 price was back 15 years ago.

Don;t know if this is the same article, but it also mentions $200 oil:

Low, I would say. If there was a deal done, why not suspend today, instead of announcing an extension?
