TOB, there have been presentations and talks by Addax before the drilling talking about two geological layers they were targeting and their expected depth. At one meeting someone ask if they were planning on drilling deep enough and Grallia(I believe) said that if there were reasons to drill deeper they would. They expected to find the formations they were looking for within the 3543 meters they planned to drill. My experiance has been with land based oil wells but they usually know the aproximate depth of the formations they were looking for.
TOB: Your last paragraph has me stumped. No matter how I look at that it just defies rationality. Why would they NOT want to hit that elephant field. Would sure appreciate your thoughts.
