I really dont understand your negativity.

I never spotted any red flags here, things are just as rosy as they have always been as far as Im concerned, really regretting taking all them profits now...look at what I could have won!!

Now let me go and copy and paste some feel good Kurdy news articles (pointless) about independence, oil sales or reform etc.

Markets dead this morning, Im off to the gym.

DILUTION COMING BY APRIL FOLKS.

PUMP AND DUMP FIRST, YOU'RE WARNED!

"Me out in Kurdistan doing the business" . . . This stuff is fantastic! :-)

[cutthecagain] 22/2/2017 09:25

The drones are out in full flow again, continuously droning on.

Long winded posts that mean absolute zilch and have nil effect on the share price.

You didn't believe dilution was coming despite as you say being repeatedly warned. You refused to accept it and are still resolute in refusing the situation now.

But supposedly you had all these investigations. FCA, Metropolitan Police etc that was going to put everything right. Don't engage with Oilman 63 - he's being dealt with? Is he? And Danny Fortson?

I don't know how you ever managed to get over the death of anyone close, regurgitating what was said day in day out, year in year out, refusing to believe what has happened. It's happened and GKP as was is dead.

You can't say you weren't repeatedly warned. It's your own motto.

Morning Fake...

What`s the share price of GKP in old money?

How many shares did TK`s trust sell, and not tell the market?

How large were the bonuses that TK and the BoD took all while sitting on price sensitive information about lack of oil, and indeed testing problems in SH-6 and SA-1? All while the OIP figs increased, incidentally.

In 2011 or it may have been 12 I can`t remember. GKP raised $200m partly to fund a pipeline, wheres the pipeline?

Was SH-6 just a storm in a tea cup? I rather think not.

How large was the D4E, that ramping posters here suggested wouldn`t happen?

Sarah: buy a Chief Operating Officer? I think they're a bit like an elephant: very nice, but you wouldn't want to own one. Even a flying one.

[gkphero] 22/2/2017 08:56

GKP is totally illiquid now.

Any buying volume and this share price will rocket, as everyone is hording their shares.

We all know why.

[gkphero] 22/2/2017 08:54

Whoops, another daft city employee has just posted.

Fake Taxi, do you work for Sothic?

Who else who posts on here for 20 hours a day works for Sothic or one of the other owners of GKP?

These mutants are far too obvious and it's now embarrassing to be honest.

No one is selling here until takeover day.
Most are now buying more GKP shares.

[gkphero] 22/2/2017 08:49

GKP is a massive buy at this price.

No one is selling and we all know why.

[wildrider7] 22/2/2017 07:47

you are having a laugh Oilman?

do you really think that we have benefited from removing Todd?

This board we ended up with, has overseen and engineered shareholder destruction on a GRAND SCALE, while rewarding themselves handsomely for FAILURE

This is the board you and your Shag'ers friends have fought really hard for under the false pretense of 'corporate Governance'

You have done a lot of harm, and continue to do so, day in day out

And then Cashti gave Jon a reality check which he in turn then passed on to us.
As I said bob plans change !

And as it says ITS NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE unlike your 5000+ strong buy posts.

How's the email to Cashti coming along ???


But it does show its more about you and a blog than an investment.

I was happy we replaced Todd A BATTLE YOU LOST !!!

GKPzero had plenty to munch on last night with Hills back.

[oil_investor] 21/2/2017 23:39

nestoframpers: and this one is just 18 months ago. 11 July 2015 to be precise.

What happened?!

.........

It's a new day.... and I'm feeling good!

Hello Action Group, it's been awhile! Just giving you an update after I attended the GKP AGM in Paris on Thursday as I know few investors were able to attend.

Have you ever woken up in the morning, pulled back the curtains, the sun is shining, the sky is blue and the smell in the air is sweet? That's how i'm going to describe my AGM experience, albeit the chirping birds might come along and softly coat me with something unpleasant - that's the GKP share price and while that is largely unpleasant right now I couldn't help but smile on Thursday as that day had been a long time coming!

A couple of us were sat in the bar on Wednesday night when along came Phil Dimmock and Jon Ferrier. After awhile Jon and Phil came and sat with us. What a breath of fresh air!

On first impressions Jon isn't far from being a model CEO.

He has had many years dealing with Ashti and knows him very well. Knows the business inside out, was the person responsible for moving Maersk in to Kurdistan so knows the area well and delivered his Syrian project on time and on budget despite very difficult circumstances.

I asked Jon if he had any other commitments and he stressed that Gulf Keystone Petroleum will be his only priority, his full time job and I believed he takes it very seriously and is willing to give it his full commitment. Jon intends to spend 1 week out of every month in Erbil to maintain his relationship in Kurdistan and to keep up to date and in touch with the business. Not a yacht or a blackberry to be seen!

He expressed empathy for some of the positions shareholders found themselves in and without question plans to overhaul Investor Relations as well as to provide opportunities for shareholders to meet with Company Directors and Officials so that they can feel confident in the way the company is progressing and to feedback any concerns of their own that they may have.

The over-arching message that came across was that this man has a conscience and as such recognises his responsibility to and has a respect for his shareholders.

On the other hand that doesn't make him a push over by any stretch of the imagination. Both him and Sami are very focused, very clear, very switched-on and very driven. The Dynamic Duo.

They both set out their very clear vision for the future,
- explaining that every barrel of oil sold so far in 2015 has been paid for
- that they continue to negotiate with the KRG regarding the outstanding money owed
- that expansion plans can only be considered when arrears are paid (or a clear plan is in place showing how they will be paid)
- that while the company is up for sale, they will not accept just any offer - ALL the staff that I spoke to at the AGM stressed that the asset is very good, our problems stem from a lack of payment
- that they intend to wrap up sales negotiations soon so that serious interest can either make a realistic bid or if not, that the company can focus their energies directly back in to the company.
- a board aligned with shareholders - holding stock of their own

It was accepted that it would not be in the KRG's interest to see us fail, they too want to see Shaikan and GKP do well.

From general chatter, I picked up that our peers do class Shaikan as World Class and I think it was announced on the Wednesday that Kurdistan were going ahead with selling their own oil.

All in all, despite the bird poo (the share price) I couldn't help but feel optimistic and relieved that we have the makings of a team that are aligned with us, shareholders and I think / hope that this could be the start of something special!

So a big THANK YOU to team SAG, The picture that was painted on Wednesday and Thursday was the vision I had hoped for when SAG started and although it's taken a long time - they do say the best things are worth waiting for!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After the AGM a few shareholders asked about SAG and whether they could join. Initially I said it was pretty much dormant now but on reflection I think it would be a good idea to resume.
I don't think any sort of action will need to be taken now if Jon drives his team forward with the vision he has set out, but it would cause no harm for shareholders to get together with a united front and be ready to act should a need ever in the future arise.
The Institutional Investors have increased their holdings recently, they have a greater say and are well organised (but also conscientious)
The bondholders are organised - look how they negotiated the BER issue
But yet, the retail investors, GKP's largest group of investors are haphazard. Instead of being motivated to influence any kind of positive change they vent their frustrations or make fun at each other over a bulletin board. Some private investors have invested considerable sums of money in to this stock, this is not a way to behave. If they were over charged £10 at a shop they would speak to the shop owner, and if they got nowhere, they'd write a letter - but they'd sort it out. Here people are sat on losses of tens, if not hundreds of thousands and the best they can do is vent at another shareholder or get annoyed. Time to refocus that energy in my opinion, get your energy, like your money well spent. GKP SAG have proved they can be effective, decisive and efficient (getting our resoluntion in in the short space of time we had with the challenges that we faced in getting the paperwork together was a massive acheivement by all involved. It proved dedication and commitment.)

So rather than waste our energies, I have set up a new group for EVERYONE to join who wants to - gkpshareholdergroup.boards.net - I hope to see as many of you over there as possible.

It's a new dawn for GKP
Let's make a new dawn for GKP's shareholders.




All views my own, memory the same. Please don't take any of the above as investment advice.

Blood boils at the CPR (celsius predestined ripoff)

[bobobobobobob] 21/2/2017 23:24

By the way. Was oilman's woolies post 5 years ago? Well I never. Doesn't time fly. I could have sworn it was less than two years ago!

[bobobobobobob] 21/2/2017 23:22

Good evening genuines!!! As you can see, I had a lie in today :-)So when I logged in here last night, Oilman was obsessing over Bob. I have just logged on.....and guess what? Yep. Oilman is obsessing over Bob.Dance fatboy, dance!!!PMSL!!!!!!

On the basis that OM63 has called everything spot on for years it doesn't look like "full value" will be anytime soon. Not that oil investor, who urged investors to "hold for full value" years ago appears to want to put a value on the only remaining asset now. I wonder where that would be in relation to the share price both then and now? He also stated that the 13% bonds weren't expensive. The Bh's having got the company for a pittance how expensive were they?

Wasn't it oil investor that was accusing the company of withholding slides, information, amounts of barrels and wanted a box opening? He does appear rather stressed when a few posters question his rosy predictions but surely he must remember he's got naff all correct in 7 years. So aren't we obliged to point this out?

As for payments are they correct amounts? Can anyone trust the numbers as put out by the MNR?

As for my comments re they need w/cap (as announced by the company at restructure) lets see how we go in the coming weeks. Btw, have the BoD bought any shares? So options, exit bonuses and large salaries don't qualify as troughing when shareholders have been virtually wiped out?

It does appear that there's quite a few posters that believe Kurdistan isn't the place to do business and that, how should we say it, the hosts may not be absolutely transparent in their dealings, how's that? And as for their predictions there's little difference between them and oil investor's imho.

I think I know why he's a tad annoyed and stressed though and lashing out at anything that he doesn't agree with.
