From the replay of an RJ / Pavel conference call with Hession and gang regarding the deal. May 24: Per Hession, there will be 2 Resource Evaluators, chosen out of the following 3:
Ryder Scott, Beicip, and Miller and Lents, Ltd.
It was decided that Gaffney Cline and Nederland Sewall were "tainted" because they're working for OSH right now. The evaluators they're choosing from now are the 3 left on our original SPA list. Nothing suspicious with this, I don't think. I would have preferred folks who are already familiar with our field, however.
Total picks 1 resource evaluator and a "CVR subcommittee" picks the other one. This subcommittee is made up of 2 IOC directors + 2 OSH directors + 1 "independent chairperson." This subcommittee will oversee the CVR process from beginning to end.
