oil in the upper sands of waraga 1 ???

Hardmano,

Remember when Mputa 1 was drilled, the upper section containing 10m of oil was reached quite quickly if one calculates the actual drilling time net of broken drive shafts.

Now, Waraga 1 was spudded on 12 February, five days ago. This is just about the time they would need to set BOP's and drill on to the upper section. Simon has stated several times that the geology of Mputa and Waraga are very similar. It seems to me that the market strength this am suggests that there could be oil in that upper section. If so, the chances of a repeat of oil in the lower sections is VERY good. What do you think??
