Wall Street eased slightly on Friday, closing out a year that will be remembered for the stock market's great comeback with a year-end rally that pushed the Dow Jones industrials past 12,000 for the first time.
The major indexes posted healthy gains for the year, with the Dow Jones industrials rising 16.29 percent, the S&P 500 adding 13.62 percent, and the Nasdaq up 9.52 percent.
Advancing issues outnumbered decliners by about 2 to 1, on light turnover, on the New York Stock Exchange.
2006 was also a bit of a rule bender for Treasuries. Yields on long-term Treasury notes and bonds were lower than for short-term Treasury bills. Junk bonds were in such demand that their yields were on almost on parity with those of investment-grade bonds.
Overseas markets also soared to multi-year highs in 2006.
European stocks ended the last session of 2006 slightly lower in thin volumes, as both economic and corporate news dried up, but they notched up an impressive 16 percent gain over the full year, fuelled by mergers and acquisitions.
Among major regional indexes, Germany's DAX was the biggest gainer during the year, putting on 22 percent, while France's CAC 40 rose 17.5 percent and Britain's FTSE 100 gained just under 11 percent.
The price of a barrel of light sweet crude on Friday rose 52 cents to settle at $61.05 on the New York Mercantile Exchange -- about 22 percent below its highs of the year. Crude oil rose on speculation that the planned execution of Saddam Hussein may cause an upsurge of violence in Iraq, threatening oil supplies.
Copper prices fell for a second straight day in New York, continuing a December decline that dropped the metal's increase for 2006 to almost 41 percent.
Price increases in nickel, used in stainless-steel production, exceeded all other LME-traded metals this year as prices more than doubled. Nickel rallied as stockpiles plunged 81 percent this year, creating a supply shortfall estimated at 18,000 tons by Goldman Sachs Group Inc.
In 2006 there was an 80 percent increase in price of tin, a metal used in soldering for electrical components. The price rose because of reduced supplies from Indonesia, the world's second-largest producer of the metal after China.
Aluminum trailed all LME metal peers, with a gain of 23 percent. Rising supplies from China, the world's largest producer and user of the metal, have weighed on prices.
Gold had its biggest annual gain since 2002 as declines in the dollar spurred demand for the metal as an alternative investment - gold surged 23 percent this year. Silver futures chalked up a 45.5% gain on the year.
Platinum futures gained 17% on the year. Sister metal palladium gained 32% in 2006.
The US dollar fell 8.1 percent against a basket of six currencies such as the euro and yen in 2006, the fourth decline in five years.
The All Ordinaries gained 19.9 per cent in 2006. The best-performing sector for the year was information technology - up 25.1%

WOOLLYBUTT JV APPROVES SOUTH LOBE OIL DEVELOPMENT
Location
The Woollybutt Oil Field is located in the WA-25-L Production Licence in the Carnarvon Basin and contains two separate lobes. The Woollybutt South Lobe is located approximately 5 kilometres south of the currently producing Woollybutt North Lobe.
Development Outline
The Woollybutt South development incorporates the tie-back of up to two horizontal wells to the existing leased FPSO “Four Vanguard” via sub-sea pipeline. The planned wells are re-entry of the Woollybutt-4 well and an appraisal well, Woollybutt-6. The capital budget for the development is approximately A$180 million.
Development Update
The Woollybutt Joint Venture has authorised all required expenditures and the Operator has secured contracts for the majority of the project including:
Drilling is expected to commence in mid 2007 with first production from the Woollybutt South Lobe anticipated in early 2008.
Tap Comment
The Woollybutt South Lobe was originally discovered by the Woollybutt-3A well in 1999 and subsequently appraised by the Woollybutt-4 and Woollybutt-5A wells.
The Top Barrow Sandstone reservoir contains oil of similar quality to the Woollybutt North Lobe that is currently on production via the Four Vanguard FPSO, but is interpreted to be a separate oil accumulation.
The Woollybutt-6 well will be drilled between the Woollybutt-4 and -5 wells. If successful the Woollybutt-6 well will be completed in a horizontal hole and tied back in a similar manner to the Woollybutt-4 development well.
With Final Investment Decision (“FID”) in place Tap will now book its equity share (15%) of an additional 10 million bbls of estimated reserves at a Proved and Probable (“2P”) confidence level for the combined Woollybutt North and South Lobes. These reserves consist of around 7 million bbls directly attributed to the Woollybutt-4 well and a further 3 million bbls as a result of the extended life of the combined North and South Lobe development.
The Woollybutt-6 appraisal well may add further reserves. The Woollybutt-4 development well is expected to increase the Woollybutt Oil Field production rates by around 10,000 bopd, and also substantially increase field life. The FPSO contract runs until 2009 with optional extensions until 2013.
To date the Woollybutt Oil Field has produced around 26.5 million bbls and is anticipated to produce 40 million bbls at a 2P confidence level. The field is currently producing at around 11,000 bopd. - Web Site
Doric-2 Gas Development Well Update
Location
The Doric-2 well is located in Production Licence TL/1, and will be drilled as a deviated well from the Linda Platform. The bottom hole location lies approximately 2 kilometres North-West from the Linda Platform.
Progress
As at 06:00 hours this morning, the well has drilled ahead to around 830 metres measured depth after having set casing to 475 metres. The well will continue to be drilled to a total depth of approximately 2,100 metres vertical depth.
Tap Comment
The Doric-2 development well is a deviated well, designed to produce gas from the Doric Gas Field discovered and delineated by previous exploration wells Doric-1, Ulidia-1 and Dawn-1. The well is expected to take approximately 20 days to reach total depth. - Web Site

Wall Street eased on light volume after several reports (home sales, consumer sentiment, and manufacturing in the Midwest ) indicated the economy is stronger than expected and raised concerns that the Federal Reserve might be more aggressive about interest rates next year.
Declining issues just outnumbered advancers on the New York Stock Exchange.
Oil prices edged higher after the Department of Energy reported in its weekly inventory report that U.S. crude supplies dropped by 8 million barrels last week. The rise was limited, though, by rising gasoline and heating oil supplies and lagging demand for heating fuels due to mild weather.
Alcoa Inc. finished unchanged after Morgan Stanley lowered its fourth-quarter estimates due to the strike at the aluminum producer's Cleveland Works facility.
Gold prices in New York climbed to the highest in three weeks as a decline in the value of the US dollar and firmer oil prices boosted the appeal of the metal as an alternative investment.
Sales of gold by central banks fell 31 percent in the third quarter to 59 metric tons from a year ago, according to the World Gold Council. European Central Bank members this year did not reach the 500 ton quota for gold sales under the second so-called Central Bank Gold Agreement. According to some analysts there is anticipation of higher prices to come.

Drilling Report - Juha 5- Bina Bawi-1 28 December 2006
WELL NAME: Juha 5
Oil Search reports that the Juha 5 well in PRL 2, PNG, commenced drilling on 23 December. As at 0600 on 28 December, the well was at a depth of 243.5 metres and preparing to drill ahead in a 14 3 /4" hole. During the week the 18 1/2" hole was drilled to 243.5 metres and 16" casing set.
Juha 5 is located 40 kilometres north-west of the Hides gas field (see map). Three wells were drilled on the Juha structure in the early 1980s, and proved the presence of a condensate-rich gas accumulation. No gaswater- contact was located in these wells and the Juha 5 well will drill deeper on the structure with the aim of constraining the vertical gas column height. The well is targeting the Toro reservoir at a depth of around 3,000 metres. The planned total depth of the well is 3,700 metres.
The well will be followed in early 2007 by a second well which will drill a large, untested segment adjacent to the proven segment. The objective of the two wells is to increase considerably both the proven and probable reserves.
WELL NAME: Bina Bawi-1
Oil Search reports that as at 0600 hrs Iraqi time (+4hrs GMT) on 26 December, the Bina Bawi-1 well was at a depth of 2,671 metres and drilling ahead in an 8-1/2" hole. Drilling progress for the week was 273 metres.
Bina Bawi-1 is located in the Bina Bawi Exploration and Production Sharing Agreement (EPSA) located in the Kurdistan region of northern Iraq. Oil Search has a 20% interest in the Bina Bawi EPSA operator, A & T Petroleum, and has the option to convert its 20% shareholding into a 10% direct interest in the Bina Bawi EPSA.
The primary objective of the Bina Bawi-1 well is the Triassic reservoir with secondary reservoir potential in the Lower Cretaceous and Jurassic sections.- Web Site
EXCELLENT EXPLORATION RESULTS FROM PROMINENT HILL AND GOLDEN GROVE
Initial results received from near mine exploration drilling at Oxiana’s Prominent Hill Project in South Australia and Golden Grove Operations in Western Australia have highlighted potential for significant expansions to resources at both sites.
At Prominent Hill the first two diamond core holes of an exploration drilling program, aimed at significantly expanding the size of the deposit and assessing underground mining options, have intersected wide intervals of high tenor copper-gold and gold-only mineralisation, 400-500 metres beneath the current resource. Mineralisation remains open at depth.
Better down hole copper-gold intervals reporting from chalcocite and bornite mineralised hematite breccias include
HOLE D276
HOLE D277
Wide intervals of 1-2 g/t gold-only mineralisation occur both within, and peripheral to, the copper-gold system in both holes. Full results are currently being compiled and assessed. A further release with sections will follow when this work is complete.
At Golden Grove, drilling beneath the Scuddles mine, where Oxiana is recommencing copper production in 2007, has intersected 46m of massive sulphide with sphalerite (Zinc sulphide) near the top of the intersection and chalcopyrite (copper sulphide) throughout. These sulphides are approximately 200m below a 1996 hole which returned 4m grading 19.5% Zinc and the sulphide zone appears to have a vertical extent approaching 400m with no defined base at present. The lateral extent of the zone remains untested. Sampling and assaying of the entire sulphide interval is being expedited and full results will be released as they become available in early 2007.
Exploration programs to extend the resource bases at Prominent Hill and Golden Grove will continue throughout 2007 using some eight drill rigs. - Web Site

PETSEC ANNOUNCES FOURTH GAS DISCOVERY AT MOBILE BAY, GULF OF MEXICO, USA MAKING IT A 9-OUT-OF-10 DISCOVERY RATE FOR 2006
Petsec Energy Ltd (ASX, PSA; ADR’s, PSJEY.PK)
Australia's Petsec Energy Ltd today announced another gas discovery in the Gulf of Mexico, USA - delivering the Sydney-based company a 9-out-of-10 success rate with wells drilled in the past year.
Petsec’s 2006 drilling performance augers well for the Company's expanded drilling programme of 14-20 wells in 2007.
Today's discovery - made on the new Mobile Bay leases acquired by Petsec earlier this year - takes its Gulf of Mexico success rate for 2006 to 8 wells of the 9 wells drilled. The Company also participated in a significant oil discovery in Block 22/12, Beibu Gulf, China.
Petsec said today that the Mobile Bay 993 #1 well had reached target depth and encountered 6.1 metres (20 feet) of net gas pay, which is at the high end of the Company's pre-drill expectations.
The well will be cased and completed for production together with the installation of a caisson to support production facilities. It is expected that production from the well will commence in the third quarter of 2007.
The Mobile Bay 993 #1 well is the first well in a one to three well drilling programme being conducted on the Mobile Bay 993 and 994 leases which are located approximately 160 kilometres east of New Orleans and adjacent and to the south of the recent gas discoveries made in Mobile Bay 950 and 951.
The current programme is targeting a total of 5-7 billion cubic feet equivalent (bcfe) of gas net to Petsec (after payout).
The three other wells drilled in recent months on the Mobile Bay leases also discovered gas and are now being readied for 2007 production.
The Mobile Bay leases are among an additional 37 leases acquired by Petsec in the Gulf of Mexico in the past year........ - Web Site

BAMBRA EAST-1 & 2 DRILLING UPDATE
Location
The Bambra East Gas Field is located in Production Licence TL/1, and will be appraised by two deviated wells; Bambra East-1 and Bambra East-2. The objectives for the two wells are approximately 1 kilometre north and south respectively from the surface location.
Progress
As at 06:00 hours this morning, the Bambra East-1 has drilled to a total depth of approximately 2,550 metres measured depth and has been plugged back and abandoned as planned. Drilling of Bambra East-2 commenced on 27 December, and the well is currently drilling ahead at around 1,400 metres measured depth.
Bambra East-1 intersected the Top Flag approximately 3 metres high to prognosis. The well encountered an excellent quality reservoir section with a hydrocarbon contact consistent with the original Bambra-1 well.
Tap Comment
Bambra East-1 is a very encouraging result for the Bambra East appraisal project. The results from the currently drilling Bambra East-2 well, which will take around 4 days to reach planned total depth, will be integrated into the gas field evaluation to better determine the gas resource and optimal development. - Web Site
GAS SALE AGREEMENT WITH BURRUP FERTILISERS
The Company advises that its subsidiary Tap (Harriet) Pty Ltd ("Tap") has issued a notice of force majeure in relation to the gas reservation requirements for the Harriet Joint Venture ("HJV") under the Gas Sale and Purchase Agreement entered into in December 2001 with Burrup Fertilisers Pty Ltd ("Agreement").
Tap has a 12.2229% interest in the HJV and a corresponding interest as a gas seller under the Agreement. Tap's partners in the HJV, Apache and KUFPEC, have also issued force majeure notices to Burrup Fertilisers.
The force majeure events described in the notice include the failure of certain HJV exploration and development wells as previously reported to the ASX.
The Agreement requires the HJV to have gas reserves for supply under the Agreement for a prescribed period (currently approximately 20 years). The effect of the force majeure notice is to suspend this obligation to the extent that the HJV is unable to demonstrate the full 20 year reserve requirement.
The HJV is currently supplying the daily contract quantity of gas in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and it anticipates to be able to deliver gas for some years to come.
Further, the HJV continues to progress further exploration and development programmes for gas in its permit areas.
The HJV participants are seeking a coordinated resolution to this situation and expect further correspondence and meetings with Burrup Fertilisers in the near term. Tap will provide further information when it is able to do so. Tap has complied with its continuous disclosure obligations on this matter and will continue to do so. - Web Site

Wall Street surged higher Wednesday, on light volume, pushing the Dow Jones industrials past 12,500 for the first time as year-end bargain hunters picked up stocks across a variety of sectors. Advancing issues outnumbered decliners by about 3 to 2 on the New York Stock Exchange.
A Commerce Department report that showed new home sales rose more than expected in November pushed bonds lower.
Oil and natural gas continued to fall, continuing a drop of more than $1 on Tuesday on concerns a mild winter weather depressed demand for heating fuel.
High-grade copper futures rose on apparent short covering Wednesday, although traders described volume as remaining light during the week between Christmas and New Year's Day.
Tin climbed to the highest in at least 17 years on speculation Indonesia, the world's second-biggest producer, may limit exports of the refined metal next year.
Gold rose for the third-straight session in New York as a decline in the value of the dollar boosted the appeal of the metal as an alternative investment.
The United Arab Emirates will switch 8 percent of its foreign-exchange reserves into euros from dollars before September, Central Bank Governor Sultan Bin Nasser al-Suwaidi said in an interview in Abu Dhabi on Dec. 24. The country has started "in a limited way'' to sell part of its dollar reserves, he said.

Lonesome Dove-1 Update
Project: Shaeffer Ranch
Prospect: Lonesome Dove
Well: Lonesome Dove-1
Jim Wells County, Texas, SIDC Operator, Antares 50%
The Lonesome Dove-1 well spudded on 4 December 2006 with a target depth of 9,500 feet. The well was drilled to 10,000 feet and wireline logs run.
Subsequent to our earlier announcement today, the wireline logs have now been evaluated and used to calibrate the 3D seismic from time to depth. A synthetic seismogram was created that indicates a high probability that the main objective has not yet been penetrated. Partners have agreed to drill a further 500 feet which should be sufficient to test the interval and the rig is currently preparing to do so. - Web Site

Update
The past year has been an extremely busy one for Discovery Metals as we have ramped up our assessment of the Maun Copper Project in NW Botswana and continued developing the Dikoloti Nickel Project in NE Botswana. The end of 2006 finished with drill programs underway on both projects and results pending. On the Maun Copper Project we have completed 4500m of a 6000m drill program designed to extend the known inferred copper resources at the Zeta Prospect and to define new areas of copper mineralisation. Drilling to complete the program will recommence in early January. All the samples from the completed drilling are at the laboratory and we expect a regular stream of results to be able to be released in the new year. The drill results will allow us to upgrade our inferred resource assessment on the Maun Project and progress the project towards pre-feasibility.
Early in 2007 both the Maun and Dikoloti Projects will reach key decision points so it’s going to be an exciting time early in 2007. - Web Site

Resource Pacific forms joint venture and agrees long-term supply contract with POSCO
Resource Pacific Holdings Limited has entered into an agreement with POSCO to form a joint venture to own and operate the company's Newpac mine in the Hunter Valley, NSW. South Korean-based POSCO, one of the world's largest steel makers, will pay Resource Pacific $30 million for a 10 per cent share of the joint venture.
POSCO has also contracted to buy 400,000 tonnes of coal from the Newpac mine during the year starting on 1 April 2007 and 500,000 tonnes per annum for the following four years. The agreement will continue to operate thereafter unless 6 months notice of termination is given or POSCO ceases to be a joint venturer. It is expected that the agreement will continue for the life of the mine. The coal price will be agreed annually.
Mr. Paul Jury, Managing Director of Resource Pacific, said: 'POSCO is one of the world's premium buyers of metallurgical coal and this agreement demonstrates its confidence in the quality of Newpac's coal and the mine. We are very pleased that POSCO has chosen to join with us and is committed to Newpac’s future.'
The agreement is subject to bank approval. - Web Site

BHP Billiton announces that BHP Billiton Limited and BHP Billiton Plc have entered into an irrevocable arrangement with an independent third party which makes its trading decisions in relation to the securities of BHP Billiton Limited and BHP Billiton Plc independently of, and uninfluenced by, BHP Billiton Limited or BHP Billiton Plc, to purchase on BHP Billiton Limited's behalf and within certain pre-set parameters, ordinary shares in BHP Billiton Plc during the period commencing on 1 January 2007 and ending upon the announcement of BHP Billiton's interim results for the half year ended 31 December 2006.

Mauritanian Drilling Update: Heron 1 (Block 20)
The land-drilling rig ZJ50LDB operated by drilling operator GWDC (Great Wall Drilling Company) has continued drilling the CNPCIM operated Heron-1 exploration well in coastal Block 20 onshore Mauritania, West Africa.
As at 2:00 pm (AWST) on the 26 December 2006, the operation was drilling ahead in 8 1/2 inch hole at a depth of 2955 metres with no shows. Since the last ASX release, a logging run to surface to assess casing cement integrity, bit changes, reaming and reduced penetration rate has temporarily slowed progress in the well. Formation penetrated is interbedded sandstones and claystones with occasional limestones.
The next zone of special interest is at approximately 3600 metres, however the entire section from 2200 metres to the total depth of the well, at approximately 3,800 metres, has potential reservoir seal pairs and occurs within closure of the Heron structure and therefore has the potential to contain hydrocarbons.
The Total Depth (TD) of the Heron-1 well is proposed at 3800m.
The drilling of exploration well Heron-1 is expected to take approximately 3 months to complete to a depth of 3,800m and will include four casing strings.
CNPCIM is a wholly owned subsidiary of CNPC International Limited (CNPCI) and is Operator of Block 20 with 65% interest. Baraka Petroleum’s interest in Block 20 is 35%. - Web Site
