There is another 10 billion barrels of oil and gas equivalent in the Caspian that has already been discovered, though it has yet to be developed. Then there is another 10-12 billion barrels there to be explored. We have some exploration programs, as do other companies, for looking at developing those reserves and to see if they are commercially attractive. So, there�s huge potential.
If you look at other big basins around the world, the North Sea, the Gulf of Mexico, Alaska, etc., and where the Caspian is now, then the future of the Caspian could be very exciting because of all the big reserves, and the satellite projects that build on the existing infrastructure. As long as we can get the cost structure right, and the governments of Azerbaijan, Georgia, Turkey, and Italy, are willing to cooperate in the process of developing their resources, there�s a lot more success to be had on top of what we have already achieved.
