I am still struggling a bit with the answer given to the question whether there had been any contact from a supermajor. “Be careful what you wish for” was a rather unexpected answer. I am ashamed to admit THAT is exactly what i was hoping for.
It makes absolutely zero sense, that a small outfit via one or several (maybe) interested small’ish partners, takes on what possibly could be a 5-10bn recoverable project, here in what potentially is the 2nd-last or last decade of the hydrocarbon age. The window of opportunity is (slowly) closing, why organic growth of a small exploration outfit into a large producer makes no sense in my book. I was hoping (and expecting) Jay was on the phone to super-majors every other day to offload this mega-find to somebody with a hell of. lot of cash, but if the company management are sitting silently hoping NOT to be taken over, I can only think they genuinely aspire to do it all themselves. That would of course be fine and honourable if we had another 50 years before governments call the end on hydrocarbons, but that is hardly the case. The risk of having to leave 3/4 of it in the ground due to political interference is a real risk. Time is a factor !!!
