If one views that video on Akpo that ERHCLongtimer posted in 203590 and then reads the technical paper (OTC 18816) that oilhound posted in 203552, it becomes clear how another Akpo is very doable, particularly as their FID was 2006 and a JDZ FID would be maybe 2011.

Remember too that we are in 2010 versus 2006 for the Akpo decision making, and our industry does progress!

Good to see posters bringing that kind of substance to everyone’s attention.

And there is other experience in Nigeria and Angola to draw on for another Akpo, e.g. Egina, Pazflor etc. etc. etc.

So it would be very misleading to say: (1) it is all difficult and complex, and (2) not understood by reporters whose business is to track such things. The petroleum industry does have some excellent minds working in it, well able to advance, manage and overcome challenges.

In fact we have developments in similarly deep US GoM waters that are way more challenging than the JDZ.

Stay the Course
