At A4 IOC was challenged by loss of drilling fluids and now A4S is dealing with well cementing adequacy. Do you have reason to suspect the fundamental problems with A4 are due to an especially high overall void ratio in the dolomite with a consequential loss of bore hole structure stability leading to extensive delays? That would certainly seem to be trouble now but great opportunity down the line. Thoughts?
