hmm not sure about yogi's stuff.. but i'm in at 16.. more news to come should keep the interest in this one specially if we get gas shows in webernick.
always an element of risk, but the first succesful well (still to get flow rates) hasn't been completely factored in, market is finally moving with a very nice looking break out on close yesterday.. feels extremely bullish to me..
lovely charts

STX is 20% owned by PEM which also has been making good grounds lately. I hold both so if STX does good so does PEM. Lets hope so, STX is very high risk in my book but it is looking good, this could be a real flyer next year. Its certainly worth spending some time researching STX and certainly for traders there is a few bob to be made too.

In between 12.5 and 13.0 on the gap up and out today at about 18.5 as I didn't feel comfortable holding over the weekend. One of my most profitable trades this year on a $ per day basis.
Now I'm out, watch for it to power to record highs next week!
tarnor
31st-December-2005, 09:36 AM
Thats a good trade and a safe time to exit i would think..
I suspect everyone is waiting for gas shows from webernick STX will likely lose a few cents if thier is none.. gas shows in webernick will move it nicely though but market was slow to react to the first one.. so probably easy to be out and just jump back in if news is good
short term guesstimates
25/26c on gas shows at webernick
30/35c if weber is reported as a commercial find,,
40/50c on solid flow rates from both wellls..
If all that happens 75c/1$ by april..
__________
IF weber is a duster back down to 16c good flow rates on the first discovery should have it over 20c at the end of jan though.
immediate production planned by march
I hope i'm being pretty conservative as opposed to wishful thinking, we will see :)

Hi,
STX closed today at 0.225. There were 3 price sensitive company announcement made today. First one advised of gas shows at Webernick No 1 well in Texas. The second announcement was about acquiring new prospects in Colorado. And the last announcement for today was for a TRADING HALT.
A positive announcement later followed by a request for trading halt, must be something big (fingers crossed).
What are your thoughts?
Cheers!

10th-January-2006, 07:29 PM
I think we might see a capital raising..
Company mentioned in an early ann that they were exploring financing options for the commercialisation shefic(spelling?) well..
Noone could get anything out of the company on the phone? One claimed they were told ann would be out tommorow..
Would think it would be to early for flow rates on the first well.. possibly webernick is commercial but they didn't want to risk leaks untill they had got enough information to present to the market..? but i doubt it since they were still drilling through targets.. capital raising most likely.. depending on the price i don't think it will be that bad given that it will take away the funding uncertainty that might have been keeping some out of the stock..
I thought it would have run a bit more on gas shows at weber but there were a few sellers who might have known a placement was coming..
Not sure about the timing think if it is a placement could have been better..
doctorj
10th-January-2006, 07:31 PM
Oilers don't go broke, they just issue more shares.
What better time to do it than when you're FPO's have just doubled? Surely the long term shareholders would be upset if they didn't take this opportunity to get some more funding to finance more drilling!
tarnor
11th-January-2006, 08:45 AM
talk of 18c placement..
would have preferred it a little higher
migth flush out a few sellers but should be alright
might put some confidence into it since the financing may of been keeping some out..
tarnor
12th-January-2006, 08:01 PM
Would be feeling like a bit of a goose if you were in the panic sell on open.. apparently the placement dissapeared very quick with enough wanting in to do another one :/
director buys at 22c today 33 000$ worth..
next week it should all happen with some flow rates and we should also know some more about webernick?

tarnor,
Still holding on. The placement was gone in a flash. It's a good sign when a director is buying more shares in the company. Hope the lost circulation encountered on the well and mentioned in today's announcement is not significant to affect its prospect.
cheers!
tarnor
13th-January-2006, 10:43 AM
Hi! i'm not so sure about the lost circulation but did find a few articles that said it was common in the gulf wells..
Still looks and feels very bullish, if it makes it thru the 25/26 mark i expect it to quickly be trading in the high 20's of course we will need good news next week, so thier still an element of risk but feels like very good odds..
was also curious as whether the director buying migth put it up on the inside traders radar since director buys are key part of thier reccomendations...
best of luck cheers!

an interim report released this afternoon on the update of the production testing on the sheffcik 1 well has driven the sp up as high as $0.28 and an another update is expected to be on the way pretty soon as well.
so, it will be an exciting week ahead for STX indeed. :-)
any comment here?

23rd-February-2006, 02:49 PM
STX has just released another update and it is a positive one indeed. with an increase flow rate at the shefcik 1 well and a confirmed commerciality in the webernick 1 well (along with more drillings at shefcik 3 and webernick 2 wells to come), it is definitely looking all good and ready for some sp action. :)
happy trading!

I thought it was basically that for every 5 stx shares you have your offered one share at 28c...
Hard to know what its going to do monday, people will be reluctant to sell untill their sure they qualify, others might buy in hoping to sneak over the line.. what ever date they say you need to of been holding three days before it, is that right?, that migth catch some out.. guesses. I think it might drag this back to 32ish in the short term for atop up before pushing on?

Two possible interpretations of this pattern now, depending on where the curve is drawn (yes I know, there are probably hundreds of interpretations :D, but I mean for the pattern as I'm looking at it).
Either it's still holding the sides of the saucer, or it's forming the handle of a cup.
Anyway, bought some today at 28.5 cents. Stop on close below 26 cents.

14th-November-2006, 09:11 PM
Its warming up because it has a large drilling schedule which will run through to some very high risk offshore wells in the middle of next year.. was a steal at low 20c if your into fundamentals and all that stuff..
spp will put the breaks on it i think.. possibly not the best move but rewards long term holders at least.. think tommorow (wednesday) is the last day for buying in if you want 20c entitlement????? so should have a drop after that
a good company have very fond memories of trading this at the start of the year
afroboy
14th-November-2006, 10:00 PM
I agree... I've been holding this one for over a year.... it's been a slow and disappointing past 6 months and things are just starting to happen again, but I'm disappointed with the spp... management previously announced that they could not foresee any more capital raising being required. Might have to wait a bit longer for that ride up to the 50c mark...
tarnor
14th-November-2006, 10:11 PM
sorry typo 25c entitlement not 20c
yeah the capital raising was a bit of a surprise, i guess if they do have some more success in the gulf they will be able to bring it into production without having to do a quick capital raising.. Possibly might let it run harder if it does find some good stuff as traders will be confident no raisings required...

hi guys
FLINT PROPSECT...200bcf, Strikes interest 25%
worth watching for possible spudding in December.
on trend with prolific Wilcox Trend..(same as Strikes success with Mesquite Prospect)..
Strikes interest 50bcf X US$2.50 = US$125mm
US$125mm = AUS$160mm (Strikes current market cap approx $55mm)
AUD$160 divvy by 223mm shares = approx 71cents per share..(40% risked valued adjustment .28cents per share)
the above is using in-ground value US$2.50 per thousand cubic feet..
USING US$5.00 per thousand cubic feet
Strikes interest 50bcf X US$5.00 = US$250mm
US$250mm = AUS$321mm (Strikes current market cap approx $55mm)
AUD$321 divvy by 223mm shares = approx $1.43cents per share..(40% risked valued adjustment .57cents per share).
as usual DYOR

Anyone else still following this? I like it as a long-termer. Rayburn discovery field in Texas, USA likely to add extra value as they bring wells online. STX have working interest of 22%. In today's ann MD claims about Duncan 1 (in Rayburn field):
"We are very encouraged by the gas and condensate oil flow rates recorded to date which are in line with expectations and comparable to well performances in similar reservoirs in on-trend adjacent fields. This reflects the favourable quality of the reservoir. A rate will be reported once it is determined that the rate is representative of the well’s ongoing performance”
Those other wells he's referring to seem to be flowing gas at >10mcfd. The Rayburn field when fully developed over next 12mths is worth anywhere from 26cps to 130cps (See presentation in attached link).
They're also evaluating a project to supply gas to DoD in WA for up to 20yrs. Also, the Futurgas project in SA will stem from a spinoff co. and IPO early next year with in specie distribution to STX shareholders.
I dont know much about this one, however here is something interesting.
My brother works North West Australia for Chevron on Thevenard Island. He returned back to Perth from his 2 week shift to inform me that alot of the guys on the island are buying this stock. Now I have no idea why as he didn't know either. He has just headed back up there again so I have sent him on a mission to find out why they are buying.
Does anyone know about their interests in/around this area?
Cheers

MS+Tradesim
4th-January-2008, 11:34 AM
Another good announcement. 3rd well cased for production testing. 4th well spudded. First well stable flowing at good commercial rates.
"Gas and oil-condensate continue to be produced to sales at substantial commercial rates. The well has tested at rates similar to adjacent fields where individual wells commonly flow in the range of 5 to 15 million cubic feet of gas per day."
The Hlavlinka Duncan 1 well has reached a depth of 7,800 feet and has encountered a substantial gas show in the well. A downhole mechanical problem associated with the drilling equipment coupled with this gas occurrence has resulted in the need to activate the BOP’s (blow out prevention equipment). The well is currently shut in and under control at the surface however part of the drilling assembly remains in the hole. Well control experts are now on location to help determine the future plan of operations.
The gas shows are interpreted to be associated with a sandstone interval in the Cook Mountain Formation which is a substantial productive horizon in the area. The significance of these gas shows cannot be determined until the section can be wireline logged and ultimately tested if warranted.
MS+Tradesim
30th-January-2008, 11:06 AM
Good flow rate on the first tested well in their gas discovery field. Another two yet to be tested and 4th well to be redrilled.
Duncan 1 well, stabilised flow rates of 10.1 million cubic feet of gas per day and 260 barrels of light gravity condensate from the gas.
Strike seems to be getting a fair bit of coverage in the media of late. Another speccy buy recommendation in the West Australian today...Hartley's value the stock at 61c (double what stx is currently trading) with the significance of the Rayburn project yet to be understood by the general market. Also add that recent debt funding of $12.4m will be able to fund further drilling without the need to raise equity...thoughts?
canal39
8th-May-2008, 12:47 PM
Can anyone give me more information about the latest valuations on Strike Oil. I know Hartley's have priced the stock at double it's current price but I have been told an analyst called Peter Strachan (spelling?) reckons if it doesn't get to $1.30, it will be an automatic takeover target. Is this bloke credible and what is his background please?

US production costs of operating costs, royalties and taxes amount
to about 30% of revenue leaving a comfortable operating margin of
AUD 4.30 per mcf of gas and AUD 43.00 per barrel of oil.
referring to USD $40 WTI. Released 29th of Jan 2009.
It is now at a major support line. Extremely low volumes. Disclaimer - existing holder.

I'm looking at 26cents or so for an exit on this one, probably will see some downside now from intermediate correction after such a rally. Volumes were incredibly depressed before, some only by $2-3k trades per day. Single buyer moved markets by 15-25%, crazy. This volume is more realistic now.

“We are delighted at the granting of this new exploration licence in what is undoubtedly Australia’s premier onshore conventional oil and gas region and to be an early coal seam gas player in the area. Strike Oil is uniquely positioned to capitalise on the favourable market outlook for coal seam gas companies with a fast track exploration and development strategy with drilling planned to commence in the September quarter.
“We were particularly attracted to the location, close to major pipeline infrastructure and the encouraging findings of previous drilling and seismic work in the area,”sp up 10% on reasonable volume

ann out this morning outlining strike oil's securing of funding for its southern cooper basin csg exploration
...
secured funding of $2.6 million for the initial phase of exploration of its highly prospective Southern Cooper coal seam gas project through the sale of 5.75 million Comet Ridge Limited shares
...
The PEL 96 Licence covers an area of 4,050 square kilometres in Australia’s premier oil and gas region. Initial assessment work in the licence area estimates 8 ‐ 20 trillion cubic feet of prospective coal seam gas resources.
Strike Oil is hoping to commence drilling as soon as regulatory approvals are secured and a drilling rig contracted.

Congrats on posting the first post on this stock!!! lol
IMO humble opinion the prospects look very good, as soon as a rig is contracted and all the paperwork is done they can start, have over $1mill to fund after the sale of other stock, so I would keep an eye on this as they are targeting apparently coal seam..........
My partner has asked me to do some research on this stock so will have a look around...........
As always though, highly prospective stock, DYOR!!!!!

This means they will have greater cash flow and can only be a good thing.

Very nice announcement today - a potential doubling of their gas reserves with a mention of potential further trebling.
This gives them a nice boost to their cash flow and will held them get further projects off the ground (ie, the Coopers CSG project in Australia).
STRIKE MAKES US GAS DISCOVERY
Find could double the Company’s reserves
Strike Energy Limited (ASX: STX) is pleased to announce that it has made, what it believes to be, a significant commercial gas discovery at its Gardner Duncan 1 well in the onshore Gulf Coast of the US.
Gas pay zones have been interpreted based upon the wireline logging and mud logging results in the primary objective. The results are in line with pre drilling expectations and the well is now being prepared for production testing to confirm commerciality.
The forward plan is to run casing, install facilities, negotiate gas sales contract and test the well to sales. We estimate this work to take in the range of 4 to 6 weeks.
The Gardner Duncan 1 well is located on the Louise Prospect. Reserves will be determined from production performance of the Gardner Duncan 1 well and future development wells. Strike has a 30% interest in the prospect which is located in Wharton County, Texas, 9 km northwest of the Company’s existing Rayburn Project.
Strike’s share of the prospect has the potential to double the Company’s current reserve position.
Preparations are underway to start drilling the next exploration well in the Gulf Coast. This target is a 100 Bcf scale prospect in the Wilcox Formation. Success with this well could treble Strike’s reserve inventory.
Strike’s Managing Director, Simon Ashton commented that:
“These results are extremely encouraging and add to the outstanding success we are experiencing in the onshore Gulf Coast. We now look forward to the next exploration well which is on a 100 Bcf prospect due to spud later this quarter”.

Anny out today, finalisation of Cadleo with a rejection of offer being the end of it.
Positive that STX management have assessed the opportunity and decided not to go with it.
This should have a positive effect on the share price as it seems the market was not happy with the company having anything to do with the Cadleo project.
