SP. Sort of with you on this. I look at energy projects for a living from a commercial perspective with a view to raising finance for them - used to be mainly O&G, but now more renewables. I learnt a while ago to pick my battles. Spent ages of 'free time' looking at projects which had a low chance of securing funding and moving forward - for all sorts of reasons, - Geol risk, Tech level, location, management. Still do the odd high risk/reward but they're rare. I didn't buy into SAVE originally with my punt money, so maybe looking for something others aren't. I hope in a few days I'll be eating my words, but besides Nigeria some of these locations they're putting a lot their eggs into (even if they get sanction) are too scary for me and I'll be taking some money off the table.
