What facts do you ever present to this forum.......zero. All you do is whinge and whine in true pom fasion....

"So we are now back to the delays in the oil industry as the excuse.But nothing to do with SSN management."

Tell me how it is their fault, they organise a drilling/frac date with contractors and they don't turn up or can't get there for weeks, but that's managements fault, they should go and steal the rig/frac trucks to make sure we start on time. Better yet go buy a backhoe/excavator and start drilling or when it comes to fraccing go down to the local hardware shop and by the best pressure cleaner you can get, we'll drill and frac the hols that way from now on, just to stay "on time"....

If one thinks they can get contractors to be on time and not take bigger $$$ jobs (by bigger $$$ companies) first, they should go and be a MD of a micro cap company. Better yet go start your own business, because this happens everywhere.
