.....don't expect a reply he has you on filter from memory - he didn't say he asked the question of the company, but regardless you choose to think that, there are plenty sources out there to work out why gas is becoming profitable business for NCT and others operating in the area. Did you not notice that the company has said precisely that? Would they be exploiting gas to make a loss, rather naive and as usual negative comment. As for the infrastructure costs, NCT will have known about these well before their decision to go for gas. We don't know who's paying but we know NCT hold the trump card to allow others to benefit. And by the way the Chairman talks about near term revenue......but you say long time off? Think the Chairman might know better than you....
"Northcote Chairman Ross Warner said, “We are pleased to secure a contract with Enerfin allowing us to sell natural gas from the Shoats Creek Field. As the LM #14 demonstrates, there are multiple existing well bores with tremendous potential for low cost near term revenue generation that could not be previously exploited without having the ability to monetise natural gas. With natural gas prices in the US having increased by over 30% during the last few months to $2.75 per thousand cubic feet, the revenue potential from natural gas is well worth exploiting in addition to oil.”"
