Your assumption would only work IF the interested parties had no idea whatsoever about what's involved. Problem is, they are ALL people who in the business up to their necks! They ALL know the seismic, they al know that billions are to be made, THAT'S WHY THEY APPLIED TO GET THE AWARDS IN THE FIRST PLACE.
They are negotiating a PSC. Indeed. That has NOTHING to do with "inflating the value of the property." And that has nothing to do with all involved cos releasing PRs saying they have indeed ACCEPTED THEIR AWARDS.
And as to how the ERHE PR office treats shareholders, it has been simply inexcusable. I just read a bunch of posts, and it is clear that just today, SOME SHAREHOLDERS WERE FLAT OUT LIED TO, as BB noticed as well.
Sorry oilman...
