RE: RE: RE: David Pescod on Tag/Apache today stockbaby, you are way offbase. It's quite clear why apache is leaving:
John Roper, Apache's manager of public affairs, said the company had many opportunities across its global portfolio and had to make daily decisions about priority for capital expenditure.
"They were also frustrated with the regulatory regime in New Zealand and were concerned that planned changes to that regime would not happen fast enough to push the project forward."
By the way, did you see Apache recent quarterly results and how much it's down due to lower natural gas prices? Why would they spend lots of cash in non core areas if they are not generating as much cash?
Apache third quarter net sinks 82% on Canada write down, natural gas prices:
