GKPThis should keep the optimism flowing. Unless of course you are goofy and will purposly put a negative spin on it.
MOL took a year or so drilling/testing this well but it looks like a very nice result. There are at least two other larger prospects on the same block. GKP has a fully diluted 12% interest in this block.

Submission of Discovery Report on Bijell-1 exploration well Akri-Bijeel block, Kurdistan Region of Iraq MOL Hungarian Oil and Gas Plc. hereby informs the capital market participants that, further to its recent notification on 8 November 2010 on the test results, it has submitted the Discovery Report on the Bijell-1 exploration well to the Ministry of Natural Resources of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq.
As previously announced, 3,743 bbl/d 13° API oil and 618,826 scf/d (99 boe/d) gas was produced through 48/64” choke from the Bijell-1 well in an interval of 3,729 – 3,967 m during the joint cased hole test. This level might be significantly increased by application of artificial lifting systems. Based on the updated geological model of the accumulation, the calculated petroleum initially in place (PIIP) at P50 is 2,419 MMBOE in the Jurassic formations of the Bijell structure.
This Discovery Report will serve as a basis for the planning of the appraisal program of the Bijell structure.
