'natural interactions' does sound like DMS with 'safety uses'

Let's hope the court treats this vexatious crap with the feckin' contempt it deserves -

'The Environment Centre of the Northern Territory lodged an application to the Federal Court on July 28 to have the Beetaloo Coopeative Drilling program and associated grant decisions set aside.

The matter is currently progressing through Federal Court processes.'

This so called Environment Centre of the NT, no doubt a bloke's back bedroom lodged an applicaiton to set aside the decision that allows the drilling program and the Beetaloo grants decision to Beetaloo drillers.

Canberra, now being an authoritarian government in its own right, shouldn't have any problen with changing the law to protect private companies from vexatious legal action.

Note the bullish final sentence, 'other applications'

“I have also instructed my department to continue with the assessment of other applications to the Beetaloo Cooperative Drilling Program.”

7 September 2021

Minister for Resources and Water Keith Pitt has notified the Environment Centre of the Northern Territory that he intends to continue to operate the Beetaloo Cooperative Drilling Program.

The Environment Centre of the Northern Territory lodged an application to the Federal Court on 28 July 2021 to have the drilling program and associated grant decisions set aside. The matter is currently progressing through Federal Court processes.

Minister Pitt said the Beetaloo Cooperative Drilling Program is a key measure under the Beetaloo Strategic Basin Plan and is crucial to the Government’s Gas Fired Recovery agenda.

Minister Pitt said “I have requested my Department to proceed with the grant to Imperial Oil and Gas that I announced on 7 July 2021”.

“It is important that we continue to get on with the job. This project, along with other activity in the Beetaloo Basin, has the potential to create over 6,000 jobs and make a significant contribution to secure Australia’s affordable and reliable energy supplies.

“I have also instructed my department to continue with the assessment of other applications to the Beetaloo Cooperative Drilling Program.”

Excerpt :

I spoke to Philip O’Quigley, CEO of Falcon this morning and he was unsurprisingly delighted. ‘This is a very exciting and significant development for the company as it takes us a giant step closer to commercialising the Beetaloo’. What is more there is much more to come as wells from Santos are likely to massively improve the commerciality of the area.

‘Santos (Market Cap A$12 billion) has started drilling their second horizontal well targeting the same Middle Velkerri B shale about 80 km to the east. They plan to complete, frack and flow test both wells by the end of the year. More positive news here will further accelerate the commercialisation of the Beetaloo. ‘This really is the turning point for the Beetaloo that we have been waiting for’.

For those of us who have followed this project for some ten years it is a welcome reward to Falcon who have done a lot of the heavy lifting on this project. There is a huge, profitable development in sight and management and shareholders have been patient enough to be ultimately rewarded, something that should happen.

Don't forget testing at Amungee is still continuing so more news to come? God knows.

'Great Wall also claims advanced levels of active safety and other smart features powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip. The automaker said the SUV is the first "mass-produced" car to use the chip.'

'The technology features of the car includes face recognition, which is also used to detect whether the driver is distracted.' SEE or SMEYE?

Let's see what the response is to this new, improved offer. Maybe the board have been gauging interest and had no choice but to up their offer

They're bidding for stock here. Sells going through at 2.55/2.65-267 to buy

the spread's a farce for a stock on SETSQX (AIM). MM's stepping off to protect themselves but any + news on the bondholder's response should see them step back up...fingers x'd

Qualcomm says it will supply chip for new Renault electric vehicle

https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/qualcomm-says-it-will-supply-chip-new-renault-electric-vehicle-2021-09-06/

Sept 6 (Reuters) - Qualcomm Inc (QCOM.O) on Monday said it will supply a key computing chip for the digital dashboard in a new Renault SA (RENA.PA) electric vehicle.

San Diego, California-based Qualcomm, the world's biggest supplier of key semiconductors in mobile phones, has been expanding into vehicles with chips that can power dashboards and infotainment systems at the same time. The company earlier this year announced a deal with General Motors Co (GM.N) to use Qualcomm chips.

Qualcomm said Monday that Renault's Mégane E-TECH Electric will use its chips to power the vehicle's infotainment system using software from Alphabet Inc's (GOOGL.O) Google, Qualcomm's longtime partner in the Android phone market.

The Mégane E-TECH Electric, which is expected to be unveiled at this month's IAA Mobility 2021 automotive trade show in Munich, is expected to go on sale next year.

Bullish results from Origin Energy’s controversial exploration in the remote Northern Territory have triggered a doubling in the share price of its junior partner and set pulses racing among those hopeful that Australia can experience its own version of the US’s “shale gale”.

rest is subscription........though this journalist (AMS) has been following the Beetaloo story for years so he's pretty clued up

'With the IAA event set to kick off on the 7th September, keep an eye on our social channels for our demos and updates. #Qualcomm President and CEO, @cristianoamon
