Respectfully, I'm sure you are frustrated with the current sp but you have to keep a clear perspective here. Ntephe can promote the EEZ to those willing to look...but he can't make them participate. Those looking may want newer, better siesmics in order to make a decision. Maybe the current siesmics are just not conclusive enough. These things are all relative and it is probably hard for other CEO's to go to their boards and shareholders and present giving a free ride in deep water without a pretty conclusive picture. Remember, if the prospects in the EEZ were an easy sell, Ntephe would have potential operators beating down the door...and SNP would probably be first in line. But if SNP is not interested...and Total is not interested...then who? I'm sorry, but critizing managment will not fix anything...it's just venting.
