Hardmano,

What you say happened. I believe he oversold the company in an attempt to keep it afloat. Desperate times need desperate measures. It was a double edged sword which played into the hands of The Shorters.

If he could have got Guyane going I am sure he would have done. I would like to know what happened there to keep it dormant

The hub of all this is the failure to achieve around 70,000 barrels of oil per day from Ching we had placed all our eggs in one basket. The funding from 70,000 barrels would I guess on the company's cash projections kept it afloat. Sadly fate intervened and the outcome is there for us to now see.

The Final Chapter in my opinion was a sell out to push up the sp that had been savaged by the shorters. I have been lucky and have got out at breakeven. But I would dearly have loved to have stayed with HDR to have seen it reach A$5 in the years ahead. Somebody else will now enjoy the riches of Hardmans expert exploration years ago
