which kinda brings me to my next point.....
when HENC drills at the 11th hour, it's basically "damn the torpedos, full speed ahead"...meaning: when they have pored over the 3D and narrowed the search, in the end, it's just: "let's satisfy our requirement to drill and see you in 4 years, and who gives a darn if there's water or oil...."
in essence, that's what's happening. the reality of finding oil instead of water is EXTREMELY remote, especially in what is turning out to be barren PELs. So, just embrace the fact that you have to drill and then tidy up the place and see you later.
How's that for a rant?
