Just released information and everything is fine. Maybe not as bullish as some expected but he was happy with it. Budget for next year is huge in the $700 million range so valuation is cheap. Have great upside. Some delays in tying in some of their production but with under seas development this sometimes happens.
Has potentially blown up in bankruptcy. If you own, take your losses and move on. You could also talk to a stockbroker to see if there is any “over-the-counter” trading. If so, Sell.

(A Top Pick April 2/08. Down 99.2%.) Its intrinsic value is in the $2-$3 range. Has terrific properties with great growth potential of up to 100,000 BOE's a day (vs. most recent of 30,000-35,000). Was hoping somebody would come and pay fair value and arrange financing to get them back on their feet. If you own, let it go to zero, sell it for one cent and get your tax loss.
Ran into severe problems when Royal Bank of Scotland pulled their loan. No money left for the shareholders and he is surprised that it still trades at $.11.
