Alaska Oil & Gas Ltd (fka AKOL)

[rbtree]

Gracias, taurus, you seem to have the perceptive skills of an earthworm.....

thanks for the laugh, tho!

[Taurus]

If Senate approve ANWR on up north of Alaska, Bush might buy AKOL stock. Do you think? I know sound stupid that I says but Never Know! So we will watch and will find out soon. If not,,, We will figure out later.

Why are people still invested in this scam. There are REAL micro cap oil companies pumping oil that you should be looking at.

I love the investor that talks about oil prices and ANWR and other global events and think that any of that has an impact on the business operations of this company.

Let me be as clear as day. AKOL has nothing to do with OIL. They have no business, no leases, no equipment, no oilmen on staff, they have nothing but a couple of guys sitting in an office pumping BS onto these message boards.

I did a year's worth of research on this company and they have nothing.


Nanuk, thank you for helping me see what this company was all about and please continue to help others. We can use your help on Raging Bull as well.

[farnrth1]

dip netting stops at the Kenai river bridge, Kasilof mouth is hot in August for the reds. and the homer lagoon is excellent for the kings in July. Worked all over this beautiful state and the slope. Don't drink but if I start I may end up on a stool in that piss ant community waiting for something good to land on my doorstep. And if it did I may find another good trading opportunity. Good luck to you and your agenda

[nanuk]

You've been drinking again. People who can't hold their liquor should abstain. You become bothersome and difficult to understand. You can't even construct a specious argument effectively. You and skywalkin are simply out to bilk investors who have no idea what Alaska oil development is about. You trot out articles about North Slope oil as though it means something to Cook Inlet O&G development. Most people have no idea of the size of Alaska. The Kenai Peninsula alone is bigger than New Jersey.

Once and for all, I depend on O&G development for my living. I would love to see AKOL come steaming into Cook Inlet with a jackup rig and start punching holes. As of now, they have no leases, cannot be reached by phone or e-mail, and have not released any "information" via press release since Thanksgiving. I can find no independent verification of this company's existence, only publications reprinting AKOL's spurious press releases. I'll bet you've never been north of the Mason-Dixon, let alone the Canadian border. You two are pathetic.

Thanks, you look to be doing very well yourself. Here's a toast of sorts to the people that are really in touch with America! Something that you can really sink your teeth into. A fine festive meal, Cheers to the victors! a win from the gregarious click of loosers that meant to deprive the masses the blood that has fueled the creation of a prosperous land that we live. The life blood of this land of coal, and oil. Three cheers, hip hip... Now lets eat and celebrate the digging of the Alaskan Tundra.

Just doing my DD. Glad your there protecting us with your insight. Something strange about your motivation. No I have no stock at this time in AKOL. I have lived here since the early 60's and have a interest in the new. I here your borough is going to nail grandma for more taxes on her home. Why- because your groups intentions to shut down any progressive development in this state.

[nanuk]

Sure, Needham/Mancini, that's why I work in Nikiski on contract to Unocal and have advertised real O & G ventures in Cook Inlet on this board. I can't say for sure, but I'd bet Cook Inlet Keeper has never heard of AKOL. Shavelson is out to shut down the existing oilfield and protect his precious Kachemak Bay and the south inlet from O & G exploration, not to shut down a penny ante con game on the internet.

Kachemak Bay is incredibly beautiful, but the north inlet is no slouch. I've seen tourists at Captain Cook Park taking pictures of the platforms, seemingly oblivious to or even annoyed by the 10,000' plus volcanoes in the background. O & G development obviously ruined this place for them. As long as they get their fish, tourists don't mind responsible O & G development. Neither do residents like me. Even commercial fishermen have come around now that their market has been ruined by farmed fish. Look to Bristol Bay for the next big leases and exploration.

[farnrth1]

Good DD- Skywalking we are being attacked by activist that want Alaska to be nothing but bike trails. Look at ANWR and how long it took to take a resonable look at our resources.

By forcing a run on oil stocks with week after week of media gobble de gook, the oil sector got overplayed too fast. Oil does'nt normally peak until early to mid April. That false peak hurt, outside of the unforseen tragedy at that oil plant. The oil industry also plays their market with price and quota's IMO. When oil ran up to fast instead of the gradual increase, I believe it hurt world markets. The end of this article talks more about whats coming at the pumps. If you read carefully you will see they are basiclly saying regarding oil prices. That will protect future oil reserves later this year is IMO... as far as the oil price increases... let them run.

cooled off-time to play

[rbtree]

yeah, I knew that, cause golddust had to go to work with his loader clearing snow for his clients.

We finally got some cooler weather here in the PNW, and some snow in the hills. Still, it's the worst snowpack in 100 years..fire season already..ouch!!! Now back to sunshine, but highs in low 50's versus record 68 of two weeks ago.

[nanuk]

Good morning, rbtree. We did get a little snow, enough to ground the helicopters and keep crew changes from happening on schedule; a lot of overtime expense for Unocal.

You must know you're preaching to the choir on the subject of AKOL. I looked at XLPI; interesting, but I am not an investor except for my 401K. Thanks anyway.

Finally you make sense. That is all AKOL is, a Pump and Dump...

Check out XLPI, which ran on real news, and even bigger...It should do it again next week, as more contract news should be announced. http://www.xcelplus.com

Good morning nanuk!! You had some snow yesterday, I hear!

[farnrth1]

You have to ask why so much energy put to bashing a 2 cent stock. Is nanuk here to save us from the otc dangers? Is nanuk working for a off-shore brokerage that shorted this stock into sub-pennies hoping to close its doors and reap its profits as they have with many without the co every being able to prove their ideas? Or is nanuk someone that is disgruntled due to lack of attention. Of course there are scams and never use money you can't throw in the trash. Now AKOL is a good trading POS and will be treated as such.

[nanuk]

You are either as stupid as you appear or entirely shameless. Any Alaskan with an interest in Inlet oil and gas has seen everything you are trotting out and more. None of this changes the fact that Frontier/Alaskan/Cable Advertising has no physical entity other than an address in Katy, TX and an answering service. Oh, right, and an e-mail address (just wait for a reply) and a website composed of poorly written fiction and material pulled from the internet presented out of context.I would encourage any potential investor who actually believes AKOL will ever even attempt to produce one vial of oil and a whiff of gas to try to contact them directly.

Yes, Cook Inlet oil and gas prospects exist. I have the list of lessees, and nowhere does AKOL appear. Eighty acres of private property somewhere, and they will not say where, in the Cook Inlet Basin is not a basis for investment. I have .92 acres within an area that has been leased by Escopeta. I live in a very nice but modest house on this property. In Alaska we do not have mineral rights. I would have to lease my own land to drill on it. The state owns the mineral rights. Think about it.

[nanuk]

Usebelli is a huge and well established coal mine near Healy in the interior. They had a 20 year contract to supply Sun-Eel of Korea with coal via rail to Seward and a huge ship loading facility there. This contract recently expired and was not renewed, but they are still operating in a lesser capacity. frnth1 is still trying to confuse traditional natural gas exploration with shallow coal bed methane technology. Anyone with an IQ half their age can find out the difference in one google search. frnth1 is a simple jackass who doesn't mind stealing. He deserves no more response. I'll keep posting here until this sham is done. Thanks again.

FRONTIER OIL AND GAS ASSESSES ALASKAN GAS RESEVRES (09/29/04)
Frontier Oil and Gas plans to begin the process of accessing the estimated gas reserves available in the Fowler's site located in the Tertiary Tyonek Formation of the Cook Inlet Basin. Frontier needs to confirm gas reserves and determine both rate of flow and the commercial viability of any discovered gas reserves. Current gas reserves for the Cook Inlet Basin are a fully documented reserve estimated by the State of Alaska for the Cook Inlet Basin Region.

Cook Inlet basin, located in south-central Alaska where the Fowler property is located, is approximately 250 miles from north to south and 70 miles wide. The basin contains coal deposits within the Tertiary Tyonek Formation across its entire extent and within the Chickaloon Formation at its northeast corner. These coals are part of an extensive continental depositional system in the Tertiary that exceeds 26,000 feet in thickness at the basin center.

No sold when RSI overheated as should anyone. You must have come here on vacation and got stuck with probation. Guess we call them Sourdoughs. Simple research.you can start with adn.com but of course thats not your agenda.

[rbtree]

Awesome place, had the best skiing of my life there...helicopters and 5000 foot huge alaskan faces, YEAHHHH..

200 miles from Cook Inlet, what's yer point..jealous?

[rbtree]

Nice piece about Usibelli...never heard of them of course.

But how is it relevant in any way to AKOL and it's (questionable) 50% share of a HUGE 80 acre plot?..which has had no exploratory drilling done....

I hope you're holding the bag here...as the price drops back to where it started....you deserve it, rather than the suckers...who ARE bagholders.

[rbtree]

farnrth,

You said..and apparantly the company lead you to believe that this is accurate:

"The Company claims current Gas Reserve is a fully documented reserve with an estimated 1.9 trillion cubic feet in the Cook Inlet Basin."

That's a BALD FACED LIE! and you know it. Go ahead, maybe you can pump this scam one more time....there's plenty more suckers out there.

[farnrth1]

My point
There are several leases being looked at thru-out the state and I'm sure some will not be public until they are gone over with a fine tooth comb. The cost of energy will drive this program. AKOL is a pink sheet with few records but they are not to be discounted over the opinions of a few who rely on friends at the local bar for DD. Caution would be advised but also AKOL should be put on the radar because we are spectulating or we wouldn't be here.

Texas company seeks gas in Glennallen area

VALDEZ -- A Texas-based firm is drilling for natural gas near Glennallen.
Rutter & Wilbanks of Midland has leased 23,000 acres of Ahtna Corp. lands for exploration. The firm is drilling off Mile 177 Glenn Highway.

The first drill rig arrived earlier this month to begin exploratory drilling.

[farnrth1]

The Associated Press

Published: February 27th, 2005
Last Modified: February 27th, 2005 at 02:36 PM


FAIRBANKS (AP) - A subsidiary of Usibelli Coal Mine has applied for an exploration license to search for natural gas or coal bed methane near the company's Healy coal holdings.


Usibelli Energy wants to find out how much gas the land on the northern edge of the Alaska Range could hold, said Steve Denton, president of business development for Usibelli.

"It's the right kind of geology and we figured somebody ought to take a look," Denton said. "We're right here and we seemed like the logical ones."

Workers at the mine have spotted bubbles rising out of the ground that may indicate natural gas, Denton said.

Usibelli wants to explore 208,630 acres over 10 years, with the promise to spend at least $500,000.

It's not the first foray into gas for the company. Usibelli is working with Doyon Ltd., Arctic Slope Regional Corp. and Denver-based Andex Resources to explore for natural gas in the Nenana Basin 50 miles to the north. Healy is about 100 miles south of Fairbanks on the Parks Highway.

Several areas in the Interior have good potential for natural gas, said Jim Cowan, a petroleum geologist with the state's Division of Oil and Gas. The Nenana Basin holds the most promise. The Healy Basin may only have enough gas to heat and light Usibelli's coal mining operation or perhaps the community of about 1,000 people, he said.

The Healy Basin abuts the south flank of the larger Middle Tanana Basin, an area that extends past Delta Junction. Usibelli wants to look within a land parcel that extends nearly to Clear to the north, about 12 miles west of Healy at its farthest point, about 24 miles to the east, and about two miles from the border of the Denali National Park and Preserve to the south.

It's likely that the gas found there would be coalbed methane, Cowan said. Coalbed methane is gas trapped in seams of coal by water. It is extracted by removing water pressure by pumping the water to the surface or relocating it underground.

Denton said it's too early to say anything specific about Usibelli's plans.

"We don't know what the resource is," he said. "It'll be next year before we can do any firm planning."

The Department of Natural Resources intends to issue a best-interest finding, an in-depth document that will spell out if the project is in the best interest of the state. That report would be final later this year.

Sue Deyoe, community organizer for the Denali Citizens Council, said some Healy residents are worried about the potential exploration and production.

"It's a big chunk of land," she said. "We're concerned with impacts to wildlife and people's property."

The council and other nonprofit organizations are holding workshops in Healy, Homer, Wasilla and Fairbanks starting next week, she said. The council wants to help the public understand the licensing process.

She said she believes the state will ultimately issue the license.

"We're doing it to get information out," she said. "So when they write (public comments) they can cover things that are important."

Usibelli, a three-generation family business in Healy, has been responsive to community concerns, she said.

"Personally, truthfully, I much rather have Usibelli doing it than an outside company," she said.

Denton agreed that there is much more to learn about methane gas. Usibelli would likely hire a contractor to do the exploration, he said.

"The issue with coalbed methane, I think, is that it probably has been poorly understood by both sides," he said.

[nanuk]

Thanks for the kind words; they're few and far between for me on this board. I'm just trying to keep innocents from believing the pump this worthless stock gets from some posters here. I found this doing random searches looking for independent info on FOGL (now AKOL). Their site is laughable to anyone familiar with the Inlet oilfield. I have no financial interest in this.

[cmjnova]

Anyone know if this company is going to have a Stockholder's Meeting? They are a publicly traded company so they should have a meeting, right?

Also, when is their 10-K going to be filed?

[thechord]

Nanuk, you are the drunk. just read your last posting.

[nanuk]

Apparently you are drunk or otherwise impaired. Not that there's anything wrong with that; you simply can't handle it well. Making money and making oil are not the same thing. A shell game can make money without producing anything of value besides momentary diversion. That is not what AKOL purports to be, but that is what it appears to be.

[thechord]

rbtree, who you tryng to con, posting the alaska site for corporations when akol is a Delaware corp.

never mind accussing me of being mancini.

please note that people have made money in this stock the past couple of weeks and management has not tried to pump the stock with any annnoucements.

I hope that more people take profits so I can get in for the next run.

And if you an dnanuk don't like making money go get lives

nanuk, be sure to see my post just below. Cheers and good work here!!

[rbtree]

the chord, You sound like Mancini/Needham.

Nanuk, I just found this site. A friend of mine from Raging Bull, gold_dust444, told me about AKOL, last week. He is a gold miner from Anchorage. We are involved in trying to shut down a much bigger and longer ongoing scam that this, NMCX. Come to the RB board and check it out.

While doing DD on this, I had questions right off. It is painfully clear what the company is doing by attempting to make it seem that the total reserve figures for Cook Inlet somehow magically can apply to their measly 80 acres....which may not even exist. I couldn't find any data on Fowler either!
Mancini had answered my first brief email, but ignored the second with some togher questions, but not about the reserves.
So I sent Mancini a third email this morning, accusing him of perpetrating this con on purpose. Told him I might let the SEC in on the little incident. He fired back with a lame denial and told me to bug off. He also denied making a statement in any email about how they might hit it huge any day....and I found that quote again!! Lying scumbag.

Obvious scam pump and dump in progress. Glad you've been on it. Looks like the run is over. I feel bad for the newbies who bought in late, and for the old bagholders. I may put a couple of your posts up on RB. Sounds like oil is your life, but you oughta look up golddust. He has some major things going on, owns several claims, one of which may turn out to be HUGE! I post as rodgdodg over there.

[thechord]

First I am not in any way associated with the Company so your childish comeback speaks volumes in regard to your agenda.

I have done my dd here and wish I had done so 2 weeks earlier, and the only 'facts' that have been presented anywhere whether on the web site or in news releases come from the State of Alaska's own studies.

So are you disputing those facts. If you are then you are not in the oil business as you claim.

As to the costs of getting either oil or gas into production, anyone buying this stock realizes that will be costly.

But this is a low priced stock with small capitalization so if at the end of the day, production of anykind happens this will be a major winner.

That is what I am looking at as should anyone buying this stock, it is a risk but the rewards could be rather ample

[nanuk]

You are a slow learner. You are either unintentionally ignorant
of the situation in Cook Inlet or willfully attempting to distort the facts, as AKOL certainly wishes to do. Is that you, Mssrs. Mancini/Needham? Bring the facts, I can take it. Ancient press releases don't cut it. Bring something from the last year to the table. I doubt you can.

[nanuk]

Coal bed methane is a relatively new technology which involves pumping out the groundwater in the shallow formation. Many fear this will affect the water table and surrounding water wells. In the Cook Inlet region, this type of exploration has only come to the table in the past 5 years and has been vociferously opposed by everyone it has impinged upon. The cost/benefit has not worked out as of yet.

I am no expert concerning this technology. I feel comfortable saying your knowledge of this and any other oilfield technology would fit easily in a thimble. This is a very contentious topic in my neighborhood, so I have some information on the subject. I'm no geologist; you apparently are nearly human, as you can type a crude form of language into a qwerty keyboard. Congratulations on your achievement.

[thechord]

Nowhere from what I have read has there been any deliberate attempts to confuse the facts.

Any investor in 'akol' would be aware that they are rolling the dice.

The deliberate attempts to confuse seem to be on your part.

Makes one wonder if you are short the stock

[farnrth1]

now a expert in coal bed methane. caution-don't feed the trolls- they multiply

[nanuk]

These State studies are the facts about what is estimated to be in the ground over a very large area. AKOL has deliberately made it seem they can tap this resource from a very small area. The truth is that it would take hundreds of holes over the entire Cook Inlet Basin to possibly tap some percentage of the estimated reserves. AKOL has also confused shallow coal bed methane with real natural gas production. One technology has little to do with the other. Look it up. The remainder of Cook Inlet oil and gas reserves are very deep and so far no reputable oil company believes it is worth pursuing. I hope this changes. With prices as high as they are the risk/reward may come to favor this endeavor. From what I have been able to determine, Cable Advertising/Frontier Oil & Gas/Alaskan Oil& Gas has no role in any possible future exploration. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty confident in my assessment.

[farnrth1]

some info that may help the good researchers. An area on the west bank of cook inlet north of Chuit river there is a purposed lease for coal bed methane that will reach from the inlet up the Big SUsitna to big lake, a small community.Although evergreen started a simlar project in the chickaloon area (activists) and eventualy deceased operations. Now the Big Lake area is thought to be more receptive to the idea due to added access roads that the gas companys will bring. I've fished the Chuit river and sat on pieces of coal as large as a car. If this is the lease which is purposed it could be interesting. I also found that Pioneer O&G (piol) might be wanting to bid this.GL

[thechord]

I may have missed the run since this was brought to my attention 2 weeks ago but Nanuk, I have trouble understanding why you are so upset when the only thing 'akol' management has done is post on their web site information that comes directly from the government of Alaska.

And none of their news releases about the fowler project j/v has stated anything that is not right out of information that anyone can obtain from the Government department in Alaska.

This was a sub penny that one could roll the dice on and possibility make money. Anyone buying the stock is aware of that.

So what is your real agenda here.

Especially when this was brought to my attention by someone who found 'akol' on a list of heavily shorted stocks.

[nanuk]

While there are possibilities in Cook Inlet, ANWR is the hot property now. We have been trying to get access to this area for 30 years, but the bunny huggers won't allow it. Most of these morons don't even know what ANWR is, but they want to prevent us from using our resources for our own good.

The other big deal is the natural gas pipeline from the slope to somewhere. The oil companies would like to send the gas straight to Chicago. We in the Cook Inlet area would like to see it come to tidewater here. We have an existing LNG plant which will have to shut down by 2009 unless more gas can be produced at an economic rate. Local sources cannot meet the criteria. We have gas, but it is too expensive for the industrial applications such as the fertilizer plant, currently owned by Agrium, which has been an anchor for the local economy for 40 years. They will close this November, taking a direct $230,000,000 per year payroll and indirect losses even greater from the local economy. Gas from the slope could revive this operation, as well as the Conoco-Phillips LNG plant.

These are the real issues where I live. You must see why AKOL annoys me so much. As far as I can see, they're white collar criminals. I wish they would prove me wrong.
