It looks like Kosmos is one very tricky slick partner as Senegal has asked the justices to look into illegal payments to a group of political big wigs in exchange for help securing these two highly prized blocks.
It looks like Kosmos convinced BP into buying into these two blocks that are now under Investgation for illegal payments.
Hmmmm, this story seems similar to the Kosomos payments to the Sao Tome hydrocarbon agency for training future workers in their local oil patch. But these funds were actually going to buy Sao Tomes help in filing a legal challenge agianst ERHE and its control of EEZ block 4.
BP appears to be very irritated with what went on in these two block before they purchase a percentage of these two block. Since Kosmos was involved in the beginning and well before BP got involved, BP feels they should have been warned prior to getting involved.
Just some more fine Management Choices by Kosmos.
Please conduct your own research in case I am Mistaken
There was a famous song back in the day that describes Kosmos, "They Smile in your Face every time they want to Take your place, The Back Stabbers, Back Stabbers!!
