RE: More Clarity from New Zealand: The 2 point is the issue, if apache is not willing to wait , does this mean they realized that they will not be able to get the permit to drill develop on the short term. They have been trying to drill since last march. I think the stock will get a boost if tag actually gets consent to start drilling. Right now it looks like apache does not think they will get to drill & if so they will not need to spend their money anyway
