hi! I haven´t posted on here for a long time...I see that there are still sad characters knocking this.....I am not sure if moneymore knows anything about shares....but talking about the graph on this one is like talking about the weather to an eskimo...yes, it is going to be cold.......what a complete waste of time !!!!

I have been holding these since OFEX times.....whether there is a placing or not, is in my opinion not so madly important...if they can actually raise the money in this climate I would guess that this is a bloody good sign....it would also give them the funding to actually do something now that Craven has come on board...I liked the piece about the guy connected with Gazprom......I wonder what that is all about....anybody know anything about him?

[talkman] 09/6/2009 17:14

Well done Moneymore2.Please sell all your shares and then we don't have to put up with your bleating anymore.

[moneymore2] 09/6/2009 17:05

Further to the Company's stated intention since achieving its AIM quotation in

announcement by the Company on the 27th of May 2009, Lapp Plats is pleased to
announce today that Ivan B. Murphy has been appointed as Non-Executive Director

marketing of gas and other hydrocarbons. Quantic is a group comprising various
companies created with the intention of forming the core of an oil organization
active in all levels of activities traditionally associated with companies
present in this sector - production, trading, refining, distribution and
financing (www.quanticoil.com).


Ivan B. Murphy (36) has a degree in Economics from University College Cork,

assisting them in the disposal of asset management and life insurance assets.
In 2005 he was one of the founders of Fairfax PLC a London based investment
bank that listed more than 12 investment companies on AIM and the main market of
the LSE, raising more than US$1 billion of equity from institutional clients. At
Fairfax, he focussed on origination and developing the business in the Far
East. After leaving Fairfax in 2008 he acted as a consultant to US and Ireland
based property developer Shelbourne Developments negotiating with potential
partners in China and the Middle East on the financing and construction of the
Chicago Spire project.


In addition to this Tom O'Gorman and Michael Nolan have decided to step down
from the Board at the Company's AGM to be held on 2 July 2009. Michael Nolan
will continue as Company Secretary. The Board expresses its sincere appreciation
to both Tom and Michael for their work and commitment to the Company since its
formation in 2003.


Commenting on the Board appointment Michael Blaha, Non-Executive Chairman said:

"I am very pleased to welcome Ivan to the Board of the Company; he brings with
him a wealth of experience and skills from all aspects of capital markets, which
will become invaluable to balance to the Board as we drive our ambitious
strategy forward. He will be a great asset to the Company in working with our
appointed advisors in terms of future transactions and business development.


"I would also like to take the opportunity to thank both Michael Nolan and Tom
O'Gorman for all their service and in recent months their help in re-positioning
the Company for a very exciting future. Michael Nolan continuing as Company
Secretary is a key support function for the Board and will ensure it
communicates in a professional and timely manner with all our shareholders,
advisors and other interested parties'


Ivan B. Murphy, newly appointed Non-Executive said:


"I am delighted to have joined the Board and I am very excited with the
opportunity that this well structured Company offers at this particular point in
the upstream oil and gas cycle'

Agreed Talkman, it is possible this appointment is the start of a few joint ventures. For a small company like L.P to get involved with one of the biggest companies in Oil and Gas in the world, is one hell of a story.

[talkman] 08/6/2009 07:43

This is beginning to look very exciting with the Gazprom connection.

[rickeyy] 29/5/2009 21:25

Moneymore why dont you sell your shares in Lapp Plats as at these levels you are not likely to be at a loss..

[rickeyy] 29/5/2009 20:08

HAVING RECENTLY taken his leave of one Irish exploration company, Petroceltic, veteran natural resources executive John Craven this week emerged as the head of another.

Craven joined Lapp Plats – now to be known as Cove Energy – as chief executive with non-executive chairman Tom O'Gorman standing aside to allow Michael Blaha, country chairman for Shell in Algeria, take on the role. Craven is expected to hit the ground running. The company said its focus now would be on securing "early stage" oil and gas assets and Craven is believed to have a couple of potential prospects firmly in his sights.

He is also likely to tap investors for fresh funding. Cove has about £1 million in the bank but will need more firepower if it is to progress anything of significance.

Craven has also decided to ditch its listing on the ISX junior stock exchange in Dublin but will continue to be listed on London's AIM market.
