  • Seismic Reflections
    9 December 2011 Seismic reflections Listening out for the Falklands jungle drums Interest in Falklands oil exploration has dwindled during 2011 as investors limit exposure to the frontier region. However, with Rockhopper nearing the end of its extended Sea Lion appraisal campaign, a second discovery having been confirmed in the shape of Casper, and most critically the Leiv Eiriksson drilling rig coming over the horizon to start drilling in the South Falklands Basin, we expect interest to pick up significantly in the new year. Enthusiasm may not reach the peaks of 2010’s hysteria, but the region continues to offer some of the cheapest proven oil in the ground along with Analysts excellent upside for the frontier exploration investor.

The Manager will select shares whose prices are undervalued and generally do not yet reflect earnings potential. Manager’s Investment Report During the period under review, the bid price of the Trust’s E-Class distribution units fell by 3.96% compared to a fall of 0.48% in the FTSE All-Share Index on a price return basis (Source: Bloomberg) . Past performance is not a guide to future performance. The value of investments and income from them may go down as well as up. Exchange rate changes may cause the value of any overseas investments to rise or fall. Market/Economic Review The UK stockmarket price level was little changed over the period, though individual shares were again volatil e. Markets took a dip on fears regarding some European economies, notably Greece, and the EU had to act to support Greece’s ability to access funding. In the UK , economic conditions remained fragile, with the new government indicating spending cuts which could affect consumer confidence.

Asset divestment by the majors is opening the market to mid-level independents. (Page 2) The valuation of E&P assets is still low, as many companies are cash-constrained. Greater access to capital is necessary for this to change. (Page 2) Shell has said it plans to sell US$15 billion worth of assets over the next two years.
