re: espadon west compartment Abuman,

Good, we agree that the key issue is Woodside's stupidity in playing its cards too close to its chest and beating up its juniors (There was no need to publicly put Potter down). This oil is the biggest thing to happen in Mauritania in generations. The Coup leaders' lives probably depend on it. They need timely information on a continuing basis, that they can sell to their electorate.
