Good Points made :-)
The Petroleum News article regarding Jade-1 was very clear that there are many factors involved and that just because the NPV is negative today that does not necessarily have to be the case going forward.
Limitations of Net Present Value
Gauging an investment’s profitability with NPV relies heavily on assumptions and estimates, so there can be substantial room for error. Estimated factors include investment costs, discount rate, and projected returns. A project may often require unforeseen expenditures to get off the ground or may require additional expenditures at the project’s end.
