Well, I've learned more of relevance to VOG this morning from tornadotony and BigIssue1 than from VOG over the last three and a half months (let's hope opportunities for US majors doesn't include scooping up tiddlers who have done most of the work already).
I've been kind of assuming there would be an update before the presentation on Thursday but perhaps there won't. What would JS have to say in that case - "Can't tell you what we've been doing with all that loot over the last quarter but there's a fantastic opportunity over the river"? Is it like Lawrence77 says, that bad news skulks in a corner or that they're just waiting until the first genset arrives on Wednesday? As a lemming of long standing I have every........aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh.....splash. |

Close on friday placed VOG at the bottom of the Bollinger band. Last two occasions it moved back up to middle. RSI is just 25.

Good morning Mel,
Not sure the case was thrown out, I thought it was merely a case of no chance of agreement, hence no conciliation possible. Give my regards to the sheep. Malbrun |

I have a solicitor friend who owns vog shares. He wouldnt be seen dead posting. However he does read ii and lse boards.
I have tried to research the JG issues and as we know JG' conciliation case with Cameroon Govt has been thrown out, and there is a breech of contract case raised in 2009 by JG against Rodeo and KF in the Texan courts. Apart from sparse information released by VOG - we know little of the detail and substance. My legal friend volunteered that the easiest thing in the world would be for Rodeo/KF/Vog to raise a counter claim against JG for his failure to honour his part of the bargain - contribution to Capex costs. That failure almost bankrupted the company. A counterclaim against JG could be large indeed. We cannot find any information ( yet) about the arbitration hearing. Since it is so material in the context of the division of the spoils from the Logbaba Gas field (s) - I believe it is time the directors published information about the timing , venue and issues involved in the arbitration.

"A study conducted by the International labor Organization (ILO) in 501 companies shows that the power cuts are causing big problems for companies. The survey touches all sectors of the economy (primary, secondary and tertiary), and Small, Medium and Large Businesses. It was conducted in 2012 at the request of Cameroons cartel of entrepreneurs (GICAM). 501 companies surveyed out of an 800 sample identified and cited 15 constraints. Unlike previous studies by GICAM on the business climate in Cameroon, likewise the World Bank, the study shows that load shedding and power cuts is the main obstacle to business growth in the country. Besides power problems, red tape, unfair competition, lack of access to finance, direct and indirect taxation, crime and insecurity are some constraints that pollute the business climate, according to the study. But also, corruption, regulation and tariffs, poor governance of the private sector, the dysfunctional justice system, environmental issues, access to land and social security difficulties. According to the head of ILOs Business Department in Geneva, Mario Bemos, who presented the study at a workshop, Friday, May 10, 2013 at the headquarters of GICAM, Douala, several findings emerge from this study. First, he noted that shedding and power cuts had significant costs on businesses and the constraints are the same for small, medium and big companies. However, the problems vary according to company size. For big and medium sized enterprises, unfair competition occupies the second position. But for small sized enterprises, power outages topped, followed by lack of access to finance, he said." http://www.businessincameroon.com/energy/1705-4077-load-shedding-and-power-cuts-are-main-obstacles-to-business-growth-in-cameroon Trade this long or short with an interactive markets spread betting or CFD account. |

I know what you mean sippy......most would join you, but 2 more years (ish) should see £76m profits after tax and a PE of around 6, stonking cash flow surplus, [ making a mockery of 20% -30% of the dilutory placing ( to any competent corporate financier) ] .......but probably a £0.45 Billion market capitalisation. Its will have been a heck of a long time. It will make VOG into a largish player .

On this I am not sure if I am right. However thoughts anybody. I cant help thinking VOG would do better with a canadian listing. Canada almost alone in the West is ttracting new investmant monies , patly as they have interesing tax break opportunities and partly because their banking system never got in the mess US and Europeans did. As a result it stayed strong and now a lot of investment money is rodding from the US. There's a big black middle class in the US .
Vog isnt anyone's flavour of te month and bad smells hang around. As a new kid on the Block with a big hitter MB - a canadian listing - with convertibles - VOG might fly there. well they aint heard of the FoX dilution philosophy and fox friends investment strategy, and there are lot more who have majored on leverage sensitivity analysis on the other side of the pond. Just musing. Any thoughts? mel |

Just a lil tip....Edge petroleum...relatively new to AIM. Operates in Saskatchewan and othe locations in Canada. In a strong financial position, buys when market conditions are poor, hibernates on low operational costs then sells when high. So far all good news from drills in Saskatchewan on shallow, cheap drills...good flow rates which are increasing by the month....'a runway of drills' to be announced over the next few days/weeks on fertile lands and an 'exciting reserve update' also due any day now...and all at a historical low of 12p caused by impatience from the 'spring break up' period. Producing around 1000 bopd with large gas reserves as yet not exploited until selling conditions improve. Was in the mid 20s all last year...VERY few shares in free float so you can imagine what will happen when news breaks! Anyway....DYOR but been there a while and looks like a great chance to double your money 'at floor entry' if you are quick!

After re-reading the interim 28 Feb report most of the big news is actually due from July onwards. In fact the first headache out of the way is the court hearing in late June. It would be great if they cost tell us how much of the 9 kms of pipeway 2 is laid. Early April should have finished the 1st km.
I have tagged a weak buy as we are so near previous lows and have muliple bull flag signals against one bear signal at the close today- for those who like candlestick patterns. Also matches someone's weak sell today for no given reason. Tony |

I am not cross with the directors for missing targets. I bet they are 24/7 Vog focussed and doing their best. I am however very irritated by the agm performance of dangling what appeared to be realistic possibilities of kem return (& the £6-7m cash flow that went with it). I remain convinced that 20% of the dilution was unnescessary. I think there were alternatives and if half of that 20% can be undone - the honourable thing to do would be to do it. I cant help being convinced that the main architect must have been FD. Any shares placed with those who would dump has harmed propects. I believe that it would be in the interests of the company and its shareholders if the company replaced FD so that the next stage - the path to £0.5B market capitalisation has one of the top 5 merchant banks as guide and mentor. I cant be the only one who has noted that the FD approach ( ORD sh dilution only) was bad corporate finance. FD wont be too pleased to read this. I am pretty sure I am right.

Who ever goes can they request the following from Fox Davies;
1. VOG publish a schedule of when they will give us update reports. Quarterly updates would be deseireable. 2. They do not overstate targets, give ranges and provide a percentage risk figure associated with targets (usually 10%). 3. They publish a full risk assessment all aspects of their project on the company website. 4. That Fox Davies gives a truly realistic future earnings of the company for 2013/2014 and provide some facts to support it. 5. Fox Davies also fo forecast cash flow. 6. For VOG to provide a very clear strategic plan of what they are doing both in Cameroon and assets held elsewhere. Any notes put on the BB most appreciated. regards Tony Trade this long or short with an interactive markets spread betting or CFD account. |

Hi Tony T,
I fully understand your frustration about the SP! I thought it would not go below 1.6p, but I was wrong! The main problem you PIs have is the lack of information from VOG BOD. Silence is NOT Golden, it's just Silence. Remember everyone loves to give Good News!! Now let us all hope that the New CEO has Good News to release at the end of May, any later then just Jump!! Because he has the Money (hopefully) to make the project succeed. But are there other problems which Money can't solve?? IMO The New CEO has acted just as the New Project Director (who started last May/June) he also has never said anything, Why?? Probably knows the situation and does like to give Bad News?? Therefore may I respectfully suggest that all you Holders just wait for the next RNS? Hopefully all will be revealed and your investments will prosper. Who knows?? GLA, Lawrence! |

It has been around 1.60 from third week of March to 8 May. We had some trips down to 1.54 in that time but the close at 1.48 raises the question as to what is actually going on with this lot and with our money.
