One only has to look at the fall of governments of other countries to appreciate that the Irish coalition may well fall...

I think it would be surprising were it not to do so

Such fall would be made more 'notable'
were sections of the populace to be in distress ...both cold and hungry

This awful scenario is playing out in front of our own eyes...

and those of the relevant minister

I have been droning on about the issue for ages...

my posts ...regarding grain supplies... following the invasion of Ukraine... were shouted down by some

I am invested in PRD...of course

But ...in a human sense... I do sense real and imminent danger for Irish society and business

CAVEAT: Ireland is NOT my area of expertise

As we all know
This was in the Report and Accounts
(it really does repay studying slowly)

‘At the request of the Geoscience Regulation Office (“GSRO”) section of the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications the Company provided information on its proposed work programme for its application for a successor authorisation (a “Standard Exploration Licence”) to Licensing Option 16/30 (“Ram Head”). The proposed work programme focusses initially on the appraisal of the undeveloped Ardmore gas field within the Ram Head area of application for a successor authorisation as a potential gas storage facility for seasonal summer gas imported through the Company’s proposed Mag Mell FSRUP LNG. The Ardmore field was previously discovered by Marathon Oil in the 1970’s but not developed after testing gas at a rate of 8 mm cfgpd. The discovery well 49/14-1 was drilled at the gas-heavy oil contact which impacted gas flow rates. Scoping storage capacity is targeted at 12 BCF with a maximum send-out rate of 80 mm cfgpd subject tp the completion of a work programme executed following the potential award of a successor authorisation. In 1998 RDS Resources independently assessed the Ardmore gas field as being capable of being developed by two wells, which based on P50 gas-in-place of 148 BCF, gave P50 gas resources of 47.4 BCF and P10 gas resources of 77.3 BCF using a 30 mm cfgpd initial production profile. For gas storage operations 4 to 5 production/injector wells would be required but development costs could be potentially financed by the blow-down of gas to create the gas storage capacity. The much deeper Jurassic gas reservoirs discovered by Marathon Oil in 1984/5 have the potential to develop a larger gas storage facility in the future should the Ardmore gas field be successfully developed for gas storage operations. Gas storage is a critical element of security of energy supply. The application for a successor authorisation to Licensing Option 16/26 (“Corrib South”) is still under consideration by the GSRO.’

THAT GSRO request and the speed of PRD answers were then referred to by Paul

I thought that potentially significant at the time

NOW we are told THIS by Lonny in one of his tweets yesterday
(With grateful acknowledgement to Blackdog)

‘Our Chairman is just back from meeting politicians in Dublin.
Predator can do that because management views are respected and Predator Mag Mell is being recognised as an important contributor to security of energy supply’

So...is it at all likely that Mag Mell ( the Ardmore Field... about which we had not heard much?)
can provide a politically acceptable solution
and help the Irish transition

If I were a Green politician in Ireland (majority of only one when I last checked)
Might I see this as a terrific and acceptable solution
to getting out of the corner I have backed myself into?

The reason I mention this now is that the chrono
