Company is embroiled in the managed options payoffs for managers. Seems that 4 out of the past 8 years managers were awarded options to buy shares at what turned out to be the lowest price of the year. Bravo Mr. Parker.

Interesting to note that Delta Petroleum (DPTR) has leaps traded on it that expire January 2009.

Brinks, well if YOU are THAT strongly into Delta Petroleum, I'll at least take on a few exploratory shares. I've no clue (other than what you report) about Delta Petroleum's prospects. What I like is that a least a couple of people see huge potential for the company AND nobody outside of this thread (i.e. no posts on the oil/gas threads) has yet commented on these potentials. I've tried a few oil/gas stocks others have recommended on SI - some did okay, some - maybe most - did not. I will bet - regardless whether Delta does or does not deliver on its prospects - at some point with the news/buzz/hype/information dissemination/or whatever classification words somebody might use - if it continues and spreads, this stock will move higher, as so many other oil/gassers on SI have. (Several sadly...coming down later when expectations weren't fulfilled.)

Brinks, since i you were the first poster to bring them up on this board, are you still into SCU and BPG? I hope you kept track of those companies and let us know how you view these stocks now.

DPTR Delta Petroleum Third natural gas well in pipeline for EnCana YAKIMA HERALD-REPUBLIC Published on Tuesday, August 22, 2006 "EnCana Oil & Gas has proposed drilling a third exploratory natural gas well next month in western Grant County near Beverly. The Denver-based company filed for a drilling permit with the state Department of Natural Resources, which will take public comments until Sept. 1. According to state records, EnCana proposes a 14,000-foot well about three miles northeast of Beverly, east of the intersection of State Route 243 and Beverly Burke Road. EnCana has finished drilling an exploratory well east of Mattawa and is approaching final depth on a second well eight miles north of Sunnyside. The latest proposal, called Brown 7-24, would occur on private land in three phases over 363 days. The site is roughly a dozen miles north of the Mattawa well. Mint and wheat are grown in the area of the project, which is surrounded by grazing and farm land. EnCana said agricultural activities won't be disrupted by the drilling. Last week at an oil and gas industry conference in Denver, a petroleum executive whose company has an ownership interest in the Mattawa well said results so far indicate there could be a substantial reserve of natural gas in the Columbia Basin. That company, Delta Petroleum, has announced plans to drill its own exploratory well later this year or early next year. Delta leases about 400,000 acres of mineral rights in the basin. EnCana plans before year's end final tests for the presence of natural gas condensation inside the Mattawa well. EnCana leases about 800,000 acres in the basin."
