Somebody just put 500,000 on the bid, shall I upset them by putting 5000 at 2.01 on the bid?

Little example of how these MM's take advantage of the price here, rather than buy a few shares on quote much cheaper I thought I would do it on the exchange instead - just 5000 shares to move the price of this stock. This is what they do all day every day move the price up and down on the exchange with fixed buy and sell orders (working the book both sides). It's actually quite easy to manipulate things (if you have the time) perhaps a career change for me soon.....

Page- Mcap is down to the board 100% and nobody else. They know full well, clock is ticking and patience is not never ending. A challenge for their removal could come at any time, they need to get this over the line or pass the baton to somebody else. They have 12 months max to be either working at Bor or Boots.

Hi Phil. RKH is a different kettle of bells, they need a lot more cash than us and if the article is true (which i suspect isn't 100%) then short sighted of course, Darwin is absolutely self funding, apart from the initial small CAPEX and I am absolutely sure the project will commence and soon. We can do this on our own through the markets and with bonds, and with some help from our suppliers. Let's wait and see, I think all will be surprised!

Someone bought those 4 million odd shares and on a normal zombie day like we have been having, this would have took us down to 1.5p. The stock has been stuck down here for filling orders, looks like it's done hence the close at 2.5p. They will take it wherever they want to in order to fill orders, there really is ferk all down here so its time to see what's above......

Oil peaking at 2030 is not fact based and is more likely to peak in 2040 apparently, also there is a serious lack of infrastructure and investment for green energy. For the rest of this century fossil fuels are urgently needed, and fossil fuels will always be needed for some industries. The demand will never go away near term and the big boys are still searching for more which is questionable if demand is really projected to fall off a cliff. The good thing for us is when they stop looking they will start using -with discoveries such as Darwin being utilised. A few bumpy stock transfers today, somebody is happy to take on the cheap and they closed this on 2.5p. So I presume the washing machine has been put on extra spin moving us back through the top 2's- to golden 3's (I am not getting excited by the way). Seen this s*it over too many years, only difference is we have some big holders here who bought in well above 2p and are happy to stick and possibly add.

Well said Phil, big boys are here including Calgary buying at multiples of this price so for that reason at least, I hold. As you said they aren't stupid and they are here for a reason. For me, I have thrown it all in here 100% and I think you would be shocked at what this average pi actually holds. If it's all lost, hey ho- bit of a bummer but i know this will come good and soon. All good things come to those who wait........ Patience will be rewarded

Buchan Redevelopment is a conventional oil development located in shallow water in the UK and is operated by Neo Energy Group. According to GlobalData, who tracks more than 34,000 active and developing oil and gas fields worldwide, Buchan Redevelopment was discovered in 2006, lies in block 21/1a ALL and 20/5a ALL, with water depth of around 405 feet.

The project is currently in feed stage and is expected to start commercial production in 2026. Final investment decision (FID) of the project will be approved in 2024. The development cost is expected to be $900 m. The Buchan Redevelopment conventional oil development will involve the drilling of approximately nine wells and includes FPSO.

Interesting to see that the board have spent around £260 million getting to where we are, full capex for the production is around £500 million. On that basis I would expect a favourable farmout with a retention of 40% (if indeed it is a farmout). Could easily be a bonds offering and other supplier finance as previously posted.

Actually it's a 900 million USD CAPEX not £, but still 50% higher CAPEX costs than ours with 80% less reserves. Just underlines how much of a no brainer Darwin is.

Yep, I agree they need to hurry. Patience has to be getting very thin with all major shareholders. The last RNS was different though and perhaps we are really this time, nearly there. We will find out soon, as I posted before I think this will be concluded one way or another by mid 2024 or the board will be out. The board still forget I think that they work for us and need to communicate more/ and better.

640million USD capex to get the entire project pumping, project payback 2 years at 60 usd and out 18 months at current range. Finance/investors.farm in/bonds/ have to be agreed soon, like printing your own money........... Loads of cash in the world with rubbish returns, major investors should be queuing outside our HQ on a daily basis? I just have this nagging feeling we are going alone on this with a mix of bonds, guarantees, supplier finance and so on......

Page, farm out has been ongoing forever and they changed the nomad before whilst in discussions. I am ultra confident this will be finished soon and BEFORE the need to raise more cash. Whether its a good, fair or bad deal- it will conclude in 2024.

Tiny UT trade to keep the price exactly where they want it.

Right now it's a bit weird.......... I have been here for years ( so many I can't remember) but I don't remember this stagnant nothing....... We have the bidder and ask doing a squeeze and locking in the trades, both are happy to stay put. WHICH means in reality there are no sellers AT ALL. Both sides are the same entity by the way and are just happy to scoop what they can. Bloody boring, the board have to get this thing over the line soon tho- otherwise they will be joining another one- the unemployment line.

I don't think you can under estimate how good this is for the falklands oil development and its right to self govern. A defining moment with a sensible government at least will see a new start for the islands and its ability to make decisions, expect a roll back of past decisions from the old guard imminently. A race to the finishing line to partner us, I wonder who it will be?

Well clearly we have a constant buyer, happy to sit back with his fishing net out. Happy to scoop the odd sell going past, no rush it seems. Maybe this will change soon, hope so because it's bloody boring....... groundhog day. And just to think this could easily be £2 let alone 2p.

Surely we must be nearly there? Another year gone by nearly and we are funded fully until the end of 2024 and a bit, so this thing needs to be done by the summer at least. I was reading an article about the length of time from discovery to first oil ( with farming out) and its apparently around 8 years on average................. I guess its better to be late than never.

The business side of things seems to have priority these days Anth, above even religion so no embargo in my opinion- now or ever again. Funny old world......

£500 won't touch the sides moving the bid, but everyone can also play the game by putting a bid on the exchange. So when the bid is low, like 2.2p stick your £500 on at 2.5p and watch the MM up their bid to 2.51p (always just above). Or we could do exactly the same as the MM' and stick a £500 bid on at 2.8p for example and buy it back on the exchange which increases the price.Exactly the same as what's been going on here for ages, everyone can do it if they can be bothered.
