I fear pvd is now bogged down in trying to do too much in **on wrt splitting the license into pre and post salt to do two deals - and to do this it needs to get the **on government to agree and probably change regulations etc etc - I am guessing here but if this is correct then I may well die of old age before this happens - lets just get a pre salt agreement - drill it and then worry about the other later - the big boys are not interested in the post salt targets - that is why PVD may be looking to split block - let the smaller fish jump in after pre salt action - or at least by then the gov might be one small step closer to agreeing with such an arrangement
