Ksmyth,
I have to disagree on that statement still, you will find that the pretty girls bring with them $bns. Barracuda won't be nearly as attractive as it is if the Alen platform wasn't there and the pipeline to the LNG export terminal wouldn't be there to cross our block and neither would the LNG terminal. I'm quite happy that EOG are in with the big guys when it comes to EG. At least we'll see the wells get drilled! Probably before the wells get drilled at Wressle.
I know what you mean about Ireland and their gonna save the world no matter how much it costs, its all various shades of their Green party there, they need a new political party that may emerge if enough people get sick of the ever increasing oil and gas prices or the big tech starts to pull out. The UK need to take local planning out of oil and gas too, make it a national security issue. There is at least some hope for the UK in that some parties are pro drilling and there's plenty of opportunities left in the SGB, the likes of Harbour Energy etc are thriving.
Just watched Ed Milibland on the lunchtime news saying that new expo licences in the UK won't save a penny off anyone's bill, simple supply and demand economics Mr Milibland! Also try putting some wind in an oil boiler or petrol can and see how far that goes! The sooner that lot gets voted out the better.
Regards,
Ed.
