more of the same

Hi folk
Santos not drilling mt kitty until mid year. What happened in the last few weeks to prevent drilling in 1st quarter?
Why do we need production licence to start drilling surprise east? As all previous wells were drilled without a licence being issued.
Total drilling mid year! All this combined with the Ann title regarding the options which gave many of us a vague hope that options would be in the money, but transpired just poor wording.
Let us see what happens next as to say I am disappointed is an understatement.
Apologies for the rant.
