i see toroa is marked in yellow, but wasn't that a total duster? ...... as i keep saying, none of these companies intentionally drills for sand, but all the seismics and every other bit of research under the sun can give no more than a "let's hope" chance, and that is being generous

Toroa had a 3.7% chance of success.
A well had to be drilled by late 2010 to comply with the license terms. The Ocean Guardian rig could only drill Toroa (very shallow water like North Falklands).
So Toroa had to be drilled. It was a duster pretty much as expected, but it meant the license terms were complied with and so it served its purpose.

fair comment other than your pretty pic implies that it should have held rather a lot of oil
wasn't scotia a duster too, or does my memory play me false?

Scotia is to be drilled after Loligo.
No drills have ever been done in the deeper southern basin. Toroa was a shoreline well, only 600 meter water depth and it basically found what you expect at shoreline, and thats coal.
Deep water is a different thing, thats gas or oil.

many thanks for the correction, but because there is no precedent at all in this area, everything but everything is based on hope

Cynic,
You do need to do more research.
Try as I might, I cant find any potential well called 'Hope' in the Fogl licencing areas.

LOL, but I cant understand why anyone would want to deceive a washing machine manufacturer.
OK enough frivolity back to Fogl.

because they're already fixated with going round and round in circles :-)

I'm convinced that hydrocarbons are present in this drill....and probably the next one.....the seismic shows that something pretty big is down there.....fingers crossed for a good result...the good thing is that another well will be drilled after this one......targets are there ......((as the crow flies) : not too far from Sealion).....once we get down to 1400m......the rumours will start.....and this is where the sp will fly or not......with autumn coming....just the right time for a the sp to "Bolt".....should I say......
