The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures.

- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

    Will Armenia export oil?

    International experts are optimistic about the restarted works in search for oil and gas occurrences.
    23.06.2006 GMT+04:00

    In September Transeuroenegery Corporation, Canada, will launch exploring works to search for hydrocarbon in Armenia. The essential equipment will be brought in the near future and very soon it will be possible to say whether Armenia has a chance to enter the cartel of oil exporting states.
    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Specialists spoke of the necessity of exploring works still in 1950-ies. In mid 1970-ies the matter grew serious. But at that time the exploration was rather scientific than commercial and no serious funds were invested in it. Now the optimism has grown and Transeuroenegery Corporation has long-term plans. Canadians are ready to spend over $10.5 million on the first stage of the works that will take some 5 years. If things go well new investments will be made. The other day the company leadership concluded an agreement with a foreign company engaged in prospecting of oil and gas, which will deliver modern equipment to Armenia. This equipment will allow prospecting the bowels of the earth at a depth of 2500 km. The works will start in September while the first results will be known in February 2007. The Yerevan office administration is more optimistic about gas than oil. It should be also noted that the gas-well boring is easier. The exploring works will be launched in three Armenian regions – Armavir, Krasnoselsk and Shoghaghbyur. The Armavir sector is rated as the most promising. The only question is how much it will cost.

    The first serious attempt to set oil and gas prospecting on a commercial path was made 10 years ago. At that time the California Energy Commission came to rather optimistic conclusion on oil and gas occurrences in the Armavir sector and even calculated the presumable amount of oil. January 27, 1997 the Armenian government and the Armenian-American exploration company signed a contract on prospecting in the Armavir license sector. The works were launched the same year however they did not last long. In July 2000, after the death of company owner Alen Poslen, the works were stopped. Since that time the company has just been processing the data received and looking for financial partners. In early 2004 Canada-based Idusmin Energy purchased the rights of the Armenian-American exploring company and resume works in Armavir. In autumn the company was renamed into Transeuroenegery Corporation. Before this the Canadians proceeded to prospecting in the northeast sector near Krasnoselks. In January 2003 the Corporation signed an appropriate memorandum with Geoenergetika CJSC. At that time Indusmin Energy received the right for conduction of exploring works on a territory of 3.5 thousand km2.

    “I am sure there are oil and gas deposits in Armenia,” said Head of the Corporation Armenian Office Mike Smith. According to him, the optimist is conditioned by the fact that there are rich occurrences of hydrocarbon stuff very close to the Armenian border with Turkey. There are also hydrocarbon occurrences in Georgia and foreign companies have already invested over $70 million in oil exploring in Georgia. By the way, Indusmin Energy, which is engaged in prospecting works in two geological sectors in Imeretia, was among the investors. The Canadians put up over $35 million. They bored a well that has given 160-170 tons of oil annually since 1995. In Ninotsminda region, Javakhk, oil is being prospected for a long time already. It’s unnecessary to speak of Iran and Azerbaijan. Thus, if all our neighbors have hydrocarbon we should have it too. The problem is that no proper attention was paid to oil and gas prospecting. Now, when the matter is seriously treated we can hope that Armenia will transform from an oil importing country into an exporting one.

        o c'mon, now i hope you're not being sarcastic. When the hell have armenians ever been aggressors?

        Were we "aggressors" for having stood up for ourselves when the Azerbaijanis began to kill our fellow armenians in sumgait, baku, ganja?

        don't forget, there was a huge azeri community in armenia. These people were allowed to safely leave armenia and were NOT massacred unlike the armenian community in azerbaijan.

        Now i hope you don't think of us as "aggressors" for having prevented a similar scenario in Karabakh, which the azeri Prez himself announced that azeris would hang every armenian who remained there.

        The whole territory of today's azerbaijan south of the kura river is historical armenian land... land where russians soliders are not allowed, but lands where russian troops would be very welcome if that land were placed back under armenian authority

                  I would think armenia would export it. Anyone in their right mind sees that oil is a sure fire way to boost their economy.
                  And to secure some pretty powerful allies while their at it.

                    I would say that Armenia will export its whole oilfields not just the oil. In one word, they will sell it to Russians. And guess where all that money will go? Yeap..! You got that one right..!
