If you search, Meg O'Neill and cautiously optimistic, you will find MANY news
items since February, with the same phrase , on Greater Sunrise
This from the recent AGM Statement
On Timor-Leste's she is "cautiously optimistic" of obtaining the necessary production sharing contract needed before any further development concept talks can start.
That multi-Tcf project was also delayed, thanks to disagreements on development after Dili bought out partners ConocoPhillips and Shell then insisted on a greenfield LNG development far from everywhere.
"Our priority with Sunrise remains trying to get the production sharing contract with the two governments involved," she told Energy News.
"We are also in quite active discussions with the Sunrise joint venture on the development concept but I think all parties recognise that you need that production sharing contract and that framework before you can progress the conversation on development."
Woodside did not take a permit in the latest offshore licensing round, which closed recently, although Bayu Undan CCS proponents Santos and Eni both joined. They were the only foreign companies to take offshore blocks; a Kazakh company took one onshore permit.
"We're interested in other opportunities in that part of the world.
"We recognise that Timor Leste when they think about the development of their nation, and part of why they want an LNG plant is jobs and there may be some other way we can collaborate with them but first and foremost , our top priority is trying to get the PSC sorted."
So probably just reiteration of the same again , now the election is done......GLA
