la punta deal done, page-50

Kaoto: As a sometime geology student myself and having made good money out of HDR I still feel little is known of the BKP areas and the Mauritanian results ,after a very promising start ,have faltered.WPL makes mistakes ,but their option of selling sounds like good advice to me.The oil isn't as consistent as they had hoped and I suspect is why only one faltering project has got off the ground yet. I was critical of HDR, but history is proving their decision spot on.Mali might be different . Give me the evidence!! Seems like HOPE to me and I hope you are right. At some future time I might raise my $0.10 bid. So far been in and out twice and as no drilling in the Africa areas in the near future I have a good chance of repeating the dose.The Columbian deal is a distraction I feel.
