I doubt they have the free cash available preesently to commit to more long lead sub sea equipment. I understand, if I recall correctly thethe long lead sub sea kit if being purchased for the LC tie back but may be used for a future Lancaster producer.
Furthermore, it remains to be seen over the next few months to a year whether Aoka Mizu becomes production constrained by produced water handlnig capability. I should think studies are already well advanced on debottlenecking existing water handling and adding extra facility should it be required. All of which adds to the overhead $ per barrel produced number. It seems Mr Market is not buying into the perched water theory as enthusiastically as HUR would like. Within a year, we should know for certain, I'd think.
