RE:RE:Total joins the Elephant HuntSounds to me like a very good deal for Total. I would not think of this as a bird in the hand for EcoA.
For a measly $1mm Total has managed to tie down 25% of Orinduik and gets to look at the 3-D before commiting anything substantial. Even if it does exercise its option, $13.5 mmm for 25% of Orinduik after examing the 3-D looks like quite a bargain to me. rl
