RE: RE: RE: RE: M D & AI wouldn't have classified my points as interesting..they were fanciful, lol. I realised shortly after I posted that what I had written was even a stretch for even my bizarre sense of imagination.
I am unsure how oil from different reservoirs is differentiated - I assuemd it was based on the location of the pump or some sort of mechnism in the well itself which could start/stop oil flow. Probably worth a google...
I agree - the more money they have now the better equipped they'll be to scoop up some of the "driftwood" (PTA comes to mind). Hoarding - yeah, not sure why I even thought that. I guess I just couldn't reconcile their actual production figures with how the NRs are worded (which have lead me to believe that non-tariff production would be higher than tariff).
About this:
"I'll assume production costs are the same for the Mirador as any other reservoir. "
I get the impression from their releases that they don't pay the operating costs associated with the oil they pull from the Mirador, but they pay 100% of the costs for the other reservoirs.
