Unfortunately, new discoveries pay no heed to your masters' dictum that a stable and politically correct region is where new oil must be found. CNOOC are a little larger, and a little more successful in aligning themselves with these countries who happen to preside over your rather quaintly termed "moose pasture" leases. I would have thought both FAR & WPL have an economic interest in hoping the extent of the Senegalese discovery extends beyond the current drilling programme. Your undisguised antipathy towards FAR bemuses me.
