The opportunity for FPPL is to explore, develop, and eventually provide energy supplies located in a safe geographic location not prone to hurricanes/floods, as well as, operate in a safe poltical environment (IE: the USA vs. locations like Nigeria, Venezaula, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan).

Also, I don't think many people realize it yet... but ALL those approx. 4,500 oil/gas platforms in the Gulf off Mexico ARE AT RISK... as CAT 5 Hurricanes are extremely destructive, as they each pack the same power as approx. 10,000 nuclear bombs, also, underwater rig/pipeline repairs are very expensive and time consuming... then, and on top of that, the floods that hurricanes bring shut down or damage the on-shore energy & transportation infrastructure.
