In the past we have deliberately steered clear of pure exploration and development companies but with Australian Worldwide Exploration, we'll make an exception. Why? Because we believe the next 6-12 months should see advances on a gas development project that has the potential to drive the stock well beyond its current price. The drilling will be largely appraisal in nature - designed to shore up existing expectations, not to establish whether there's anything there in the first place. 

In Victorian waters there's a good chance that a new gas development based on the company's Kipper-Gummy-Manta gas fields could be developed. If a producible gas reserve is established (or 'proved up' to use the industry terminology), this project alone could be worth a multiple of the current share price. Further news should be released before Christmas.

AWE is a good opportunity for capital growth over the next year, but be warned - this type of activity is speculative and should be ACCUMULATED only by investor's looking for a punt.
