IVZ media thread, page-2259

Scott has an obligation to shareholders to utilise all avenues available to increases awareness of the company to the wider market.

It matters especially if a discovery is made. If there is greater awareness, it means a more aggressive initial response to the share price. If the marketing avenues are covering IVZ into spud, they'll also cover it on news of hydrocarbons being detected.

You're talking like there is a considerable amount of effort involved in contacting websites like oilprice.com to initiate coverage. Actually, it's very simple - apart from paying the invoice, oilprice.com will do everything - Scott doesn't need to lift a finger. They do the research and write the articles. Not sure how it will be considered "wasting his reservoir engineer experience". All he needs to do is send an email.
