At the end of the day WPL is DESPERATE to prove to financiers that Pluto 2&3 is more than a pipe dream, and that it actually has sufficient gas.
If Artemis is a success, and WPL can use this to underpin SPA's worth >$30b, then buying MEO for $3 per share will look cheap!
Back to farminee, we (they) have the leverage now, we have the cash and the determination to do what FMG did for Iron Ore in the west!
