The only other thing that might give us a tiny bit of hope, is the fact the they had an open hole through the target zone as well as the overpressure zones. There's always the possibility that they weren't able to re-circulate all the drilling mud because it was weighted to suit the overpressure zones and may have lost a lot of it through some prospective oil/gas bearing zones. Hence the uncertainty atm. Maybe some of the geo's can comment on that?.....olivier211 or geos?.....

Could be clutching at straws I think, but hey....worth considering....
