Umbra....in trying to fit the pieces, you and others have given us, into a viewable picture I've come up with the below scenario.
Addax is our partner in ALL THREE of our blocks. They are a likely candidate for a buy-in of ERHC as is Sinopec. Prior to Easter, the following will occur that will aid ERHC investors to becoming very very wealthy:
1) CVX will make a public disclosure of their OBO-1 well.
2) Signature bonuses will be paid and said payment triggers:
3) Buy-in of ERHC by Sinopec (maybe Addax too?).
4) News of fast tracking drilling is released.
The media will get wing of a mammoth world class find from CVX in the JDZ. They will also learn that a very good portion of said oil is going to be tankered to the East (China) instead of to the West (U.S.). This will start a media frenzy of the US vs. China energy struggle/fight. ERHC will gain much free advertising as:
1) The media brings the energy struggle to view.
2) STP rags to riches story.
3) JDZ/JDA promote their remaining "to be sold" JDZ blocks.
4) Nigeria and STP promote with new find their EEZ blocks.
Your (Umbra) comment of how much oil you believe is going to be discovered is very well verbalized in one of your last comments:
"The amount of reserves that will ultimately be discovered, in my estimate, will be second only to Saudi Arabia."
I have to believe your comment on Easter....meets the consummation of the contracts via the payment of signature bonues monies.
