Earlier this week, about 20 of them met outside Africa Oil's downtown Vancouver office. Photographs in a Somali newspaper called Abyan Media show the protesters waving Ethiopian and Canadian flags as well as signs reading, "Down with Africa Oil Corp.," "Keith Hill supports African dictators," and: "Ethiopian regime! Stop killing our children." The protesters have started a campaign to bring Africa Oil's executives to court. It is not clear how that is progressing. (source: Stockwatch - Aug. 29, 2013)

Exxon und die staatliche Ölfirma aus Kuwait steigen im Sudan ein (OMV hat sich leider vor ein paar Jahren durch eine kleine Gruppe Protestierer vor dem OMV Eingangstor in Wien so erschrecken lassen, dass sie sich aus dem Sudan zurückgezogen haben)
Die indische staatliche Ölfirma denkt laut über Ölfelder in Ostafrika nach.
Eigentlich alles gute Nachrichten für AOI

Mann, oh Mann, was für ein Geschwalle! Du musst doch langsam merken, dass niemand auf deine Sinnlos-Kommentare reagiert und alle nur darauf warten, dass du endlich woanders die Leute beglückst. Erst dann beginnt hier wieder die anspruchsvollere Diskussion.
Also, tu dir uns uns allen einen Gefallen und such dir eine andere Aktie aus - spielt doch eh keine Rolle, da deine inhaltsleeren Kommentare überall hin passen. Allein schon die Wortwahl "Kurs drücken", "Grillhölle":
O sancta simplicitas!

Gruß

Ja, so schnell kann es gehen: Gestern Morgen noch ein Verkaufssignal und heute Morgen dann ein Kaufsignal
Da nun gestern in Kanada BULLISH Doji Star erzeugt wurde ist heute die Empfehlung , KAUFEN .
Neben dem bullisch Doji Candelstick hat zugleich der RSI und der Slow STO gedreht.
Nun etwas zum Handelsverlauf:
Der erste Kurs in Kanada hat mit einem riesen GAP geöffnet, was für einen weiteren Kursverlauf sehr nachträglich ist.
Obwohl in Schweden bis 17:30 etwas über 1 Mio Aktien umgesetzt worden sind, konnte man gut erkennen, das in Canada 36.000 Aktien genügten, dass der Kurs wieder nach unten gedrückt werden konnte.Mit dann 189 K in Kanada wurde dann der Kurs wieder bis Handelsschluß eingestellt, der auch in Schweden als Handelsschluß ausgegeben wurde
Somit wurde das offene GAP in Kanada bilderbuchmäßig geschlossen und ein weiterer Kursanstieg steht nichts mehr im Wege.
Somit ist die nächste Hürde 7,19 CAN$ das wir gestern auch fast erreicht hatten. Da der Ölpreis steigt, oder sich auch zumindest im 3 Monatshoch befindet müsste dies vorerst auch genügend Auftrieb geben.
RSI sollte den Anstieg über 50% in den nächsten Tagen schaffen um den Kurs weiter zu stabilisieren.
Dann noch einen schönes WE
Niki

Africa Oil Second Quarter of 2013 Financial and Operating Results

http://africaoilcorp.mwnewsroom.com/press-releases/africa-oi…

August 28, 2013 (AOI – TSXV, AOI - NASDAQ OMX) … Africa Oil Corp. (“Africa Oil”, “the Company” or “AOC”) is pleased to announce its financial and operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

On the back of the successful exploration activities in Kenya during 2012, the Company, together with its partners, continues to ramp up its exploration program in Kenya and Ethiopia. Entering the year, two Tullow-Africa Oil joint venture rigs were operating in Kenya and one joint venture rig was operating in Ethiopia. A fourth Tullow-Africa Oil joint venture rig has been secured and is expected to commence testing and drilling operations in Kenya on Blocks 10BB and 13T during October 2013. The Company, as operator, and its partner in Block 9 (Kenya) have secured a fifth rig, which will commence drilling operations in September 2013. In addition, the Company and its partners in Block 7/8 (Ethiopia) have secured a sixth rig, which will commence drilling operations in September 2013. For a period, the Company will have six drilling rigs operating and expects to exit the year with five rigs operating in the region. The Company plans to have drilled ten exploration wells and to have tested four wells across its exploration blocks during 2013.

During the first half of the year, the Company completed a series of well tests at both Twiga South-1 and Ngamia-1 on Blocks 13T and 10BB in Kenya, respectively. These successful well tests confirmed over 5,000 barrels of oil per day (“bopd”) flow potential per well and a doubling of our previous estimates of net oil pay. Ekales-1, the next exploration well in the Basin Bounding Fault Play and on trend with Ngamia-1 and Twiga South-1, commenced drilling in July. Transient Pressure Analysis has been conducted on the Twiga South-1 and Ngamia-1 well tests. No pressure depletion was recorded over the duration of the tests. Flow periods ranged from 0.5 to 2.5 days and build up periods ranged between 3 to 12 days.

Upon completing testing operations at Ngamia-1 in Block 10BB, the Weatherford 804 rig mobilized to the Ekales-1 well in Block 13T. The Ekales prospect is located on the main basin bounding fault midway between the Ngamia-1 and Twiga South-1 discoveries and is targeting the same formations that were productive in these discoveries. The well spud in July and is expected to be completed around end September.

In July, the Company announced a new major oil discovery at Etuko-1. Etuko-1 is located 14 kilometers east of Twiga South-1 in Block 10BB and is the first test of the Basin Flank Play in the eastern part of the Basin. The well encountered approximately 40 meters of net oil pay in the Auwerwer and Upper Lokhone targets and approximately 50 meters of additional potential net pay in the Lower Lokhone interval. The well will be tested later in the year.

In July, the Company reported that the Sabisa-1 well on the South Omo Block in Ethiopia, the most northerly well drilled on the Tertiary rift trend to date, had confirmed a viable hydrocarbon system with oil and heavy gas shows. Based on the encouragement of the results, the decision was made to drill the Tultule-1 as the next well on the South Omo Block. This well is expected to spud around the end August.

In the first quarter of 2013, the Company and its operating partners on Block 10A completed drilling the Paipai-1 exploration well. The Paipai-1 well tested a large four-way closed structure with Cretaceous-age sandstone targets at multiple depths. Paipai-1 spudded in September 2012 and completed drilling in the first quarter of 2013 to a total depth of 4,255 meters. Light hydrocarbons were encountered while drilling a 55 meter thick gross sandstone interval. Attempts to sample the reservoir fluid were unsuccessful and the hydrocarbons encountered while drilling were not recovered to surface. The Company and its partners were unable to test the well at the time due to the unavailability, in country, of testing equipment capable of handling the higher reservoir pressures encountered at this depth. As a result, the well has been temporarily suspended pending further data evaluation.


The Company and its partner on Block 9 are currently planning to drill one exploration well in 2013. Block 9 is in the Cretaceous rift basin on trend with the South Sudan oil fields and the play concept was confirmed by the recent Paipai-1 well drilled in Block 10A. Two major prospects, Bahasi-1 and Sala-1, with large volume potential have been identified. The Company, as operator, and its partners in Block 9 have completed construction of the access road and well site for the Bahasi-1 exploration well. The Greatwall GW190 rig has commenced mobilization to site and the well is expected to spud in September.


The Company and its partners continue to focus on the El Kuran oil accumulation on Block 8, discovered in the early 1970’s. After completing reservoir characterization studies, the Company focused efforts on testing and completion strategies for producing commercial quantities of oil and gas. The Company and its joint operating partners on Blocks 7/8 (New Age operated) are planning to drill and test the El Kuran-3 appraisal well. The well site has been constructed, erection of the rig is ongoing at site and the well is expected to spud in September 2013.


The Company continues to actively acquire, process and interpret 2D seismic over Blocks 10BA, 10BB, 12A, 13T and South Omo. In addition, the Company and its partner in Blocks 10BB and 13T will mobilize a 3D seismic crew to complete a 550 square kilometer 3D seismic survey over the Ngamia and Twiga structures later in 2013.


In first quarter of 2013, the Company executed a PSC for the Rift Basin Area in Ethiopia. Located north of the South Omo Block, the Rift Basin Area covers 42,519 square kilometers. This block is on trend with highly prospective blocks in the Tertiary rift valley including the South Omo Block in Ethiopia, and Kenyan Blocks 10BA, 10BB, 13T, and 12A. The Company commenced acquiring a Full Tensor Gradiometry survey in May 2013, which is approximately 70% complete, and is conducting an exhaustive environmental and social impact assessment over the block in preparation for a seismic program in 2014.


Africa Oil ended the quarter in a strong financial position with cash of $179.5 million and working capital of $141.2 million.

Keith Hill, President and CEO, commented, “Africa Oil is very encouraged with the results of our first three exploration wells in the Lokichar basin. Our fully funded 2013 work program is focused on drilling and testing multiple wells in the Lokichar sub-basin in Kenya in an effort to reach commercial thresholds and on drilling multiple potential basin-opening wells across its vast East African exploration acreage.”


Operating expenses increased $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the prior year due mainly to an increase of $6.5 million in stock-based compensation relating to the 5,673,500 options granted in the current period. The increase was offset partially by a decrease of $3.1 million in professional fees due to finder fees paid in shares during the second quarter of 2012. The remaining $0.4 million increase can be attributed to increased salary and travel related costs associated with increased headcount and operational activity.



Operating expenses increased $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the prior year due mainly to an increase of $6.6 million in stock-based compensation relating to the 5,673,500 options granted in the current period. The increase was offset by a decrease of $3.2 million in professional fees due to finder fees paid in shares and $3.1 million in impairment of intangible exploration assets relating to the abandonment of Blocks 7 and 11 in Mali during the prior period. The remaining $0.8 million increase can be attributed to increased salary and travel related costs associated with increased headcount and operational activity.

Financial income and expense is made up of the following items:

The loss on revaluation of marketable securities is the result of a decrease in the value of 10 million shares held in Encanto Potash Corp which were acquired as part of the acquisition of Lion. These shares were sold during the first quarter of 2012.

At June 30, 2013, nil warrants were outstanding in AOC and 53.4 million warrants were outstanding in Horn. AOC holds 13.3 million of the warrants outstanding in Horn. The Company recorded a $0.2 million gain on the revaluation of warrants for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and a $2.9 million gain for the six months ended June 30, 2013, due to a reduction in the volatility of the shares of Horn combined with a reduction in the remaining life of the warrants. The Company will incur fair market value adjustments on the Horn warrants until they are exercised or they expire (43,868,527 expire September 20, 2013, 9,375,000 expire June 8, 2014, 156,248 expire June 11, 2014, and 15,000 expire June 18, 2014).

Interest income increased in the first six months of 2013 due to a significant increase in cash late in the fourth quarter of 2012 as a result of cash received from the non-brokered private placement in December of 2012.

The foreign exchange gains and losses are the direct result of changes in the value of the Canadian dollar in comparison to the US dollar. The Company’s cash holdings are primarily in US and Canadian currency.


Consolidated Balance Sheets

(Thousands United States Dollars)

The increase in total assets from December 31, 2012 to June 30, 2013 is primarily attributable to intangible asset expenditures incurred during the quarter in Kenya, Ethiopia and Puntland (Somalia).


Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows

(Thousands United States Dollars)

The decrease in cash for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 is mainly the result of intangible exploration expenditures and cash-based operating expenses.




Consolidated Statement of Equity

(Thousands United States Dollars)
The Company’s consolidated financial statements, notes to the financial statements, management’s discussion and analysis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and the 2012 Annual Information Form have been filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) and are available on the Company’s website (www.africaoilcorp.com).

Outlook

The Company is significantly increasing the pace of exploration. For a period during the last half of the year, the Company will have six drilling rigs operating and expects to exit the year with five rigs operating.

The Ngamia-1, Twiga South-1 and Etuko-1 light oil discoveries in the Lokichar sub-basin, combined with positive results from reservoir analysis and flow rate tests at Ngamia-1 and Twiga South-1, has led to a significant increase in the pace of exploration focused on tertiary rift basins. The Company and its joint venture partners in the tertiary rift play in east Africa plan to have four rigs operating by the end of 2013. The near term focus of these rigs is to continue drilling and testing wells in the Lokichar sub-basin in Kenya with improved efficiencies in an effort to continue building its contingent resource base, and to drill potential basin-opening wells in the Turkana, Chew Bahir, and Kerio basins in the tertiary rift play within Kenya and Ethiopia. Resources discovered to date are of a scale that the Tullow-Africa Oil joint venture partnership will initiate discussions with the Government of Kenya and other relevant stakeholders to consider development options. These discussions include consideration of a “start-up phase” oil production system with potential to deliver significant production rates with oil export via road or rail in advance of a full-scale pipeline development. The Company and its partners will continue to acquire seismic data throughout the tertiary rift in Kenya and Ethiopia in an effort to add to its existing portfolio of drill-ready prospects.

The Company and its operating partner in Block 9 in Kenya are currently mobilizing Greatwall GW190 rig to drill the Bahasi-1 exploratory well. This well which is planned to spud in September will be drilled on a large anticlinal structure targeting tertiary and cretaceous sandstones where six billion barrels of oil was discovered along trend in Sudan in a similar geologic setting. A follow-up well is also being considered in early 2014 in Block 9. The Company and its operating partners in Blocks 7/8 in Ethiopia are currently mobilizing a rig to drill a well to appraise reservoir characteristics of Jurassic carbonates on the El Kuran oil accumulation. The main focus of this well which is expected to spud in September, is to establish commercial rates with acidizing, fraccing and horizontal sidetracks being considered.

Based on the encouragement provided by the Shabeel wells, the Company and its partners entered the next exploration period in both the Dharoor Valley and Nugaal Valley PSAs which carry a commitment to drill one well in each block within an additional three year term ending October 2015. The current operational plan is to contract a seismic crew to acquire additional data in the Dharoor Valley block and to hold discussions with the Puntland Government regarding drill ready prospects in the Nugaal Valley block. The focus of the Dharoor Valley block seismic program will be to delineate new structural prospects for the upcoming drilling campaign. Horn has been in discussion with potential joint venture partners and is reviewing new venture opportunities in the region.

Africa Oil Corp. is a Canadian oil and gas company with assets in Kenya and Ethiopia as well as Puntland (Somalia) through its 45% equity interest in Horn Petroleum Corporation. Africa Oil's East African holdings are in within a world-class exploration play fairway with a total gross land package in this prolific region in excess of 250,000 square kilometers. The East African Rift Basin system is one of the last of the great rift basins to be explored. Two new significant discoveries have been announced in the Lokichar basin in which the Company holds a 50% interest along with operator Tullow Oil plc. The Company is listed on the TSX Venture Exchange and on First North at NASDAQ OMX-Stockholm under the symbol "AOI".

Hallo @,
heute mal wieder was von der Chartseite da gestern ein neues Signal kreiert wurde das ich euch nicht vorenthalten will:
Aufgrund der Chartkonstellation ist die Empfehlung für heute, SHORT . Die Stop-Loss-bearish Muster erhielt eine Bestätigung, weil der Preise die Stop-Loss-Niveau überquerte, das bei 6,8100 war. Die bisherige BUY Empfehlung wurde am 22.08.2013 erteilt.Gestriger Schlußkurs lag bei 6,69 CAN$. Weiteres Rückschlagspotential liegt bei 6,50 CAN$.Dort befindet sich eine massive Widerstandslinie. Ist also überschaubar.
Der Slow STO hat gestern wieder ins Minus gedreht und liegt bei 9,20 zu 12,27 %. Kann also durchaus noch etwas nach unten gehen.
Positiv ist, dass sich bei 6,80 CAN$ bis 6,95 CAN$ ein Abwärtsgap befindet das ja mit einer Wahrscheinlichkeit von 80%-90% wieder geschlossen werden will. Wer also nachkaufen will, kann sich bei ca. 6,50 CAN$ nochmal auf die Lauer legen.
Ach ja, 6,50 CAN$ wäre wünschenswert, da sich dann eine "W"- Formation ausbildet im einem Aufwärtspotential bis knapp 8 CAN$.
Niki
