Personally I'd like to view this as a positive, but I'll also balance that with other possibilities.

I agree, the announcement is rather similar to Fausse Point. It could mean that "there's possibly something bigger underneath, which was unexpected". That would be a positive, in the long term, but we all know what happened (or is still happening)with FP1 LOL

Now, this could also mean that they've encountered nothing really significant in the 3 zones of interest that they'd have to dig deeper. I doubt this is the case though.

Facts:

* Hydrocarbon shows during drill;
* Labelled a "discovery";
* Latest announcement did not come with the typical phrase "we are PLEASED to advise..." LOL
