But we lose so much more than 8 TCFE.
Why no deal at TBR ?
Why no farm deals ?
Why do we shareholders lose most of FID and second certification payment .
Why did Oil Search ,Total and Interoil all say well testing and drilling was better than expectations ? The base line was GCA in 2013 with 7.1 TCFE . The upside presented us to 8 ?? That's criminal .

We also have to look at where we likely would be (realistically) w/o any deal:
1: Cash burning machine that would run out of cash probably before Certification
2: Because of above pps drops to ? 20s?
3: Also because of above we likely see an equity dilute offering
4: Because of above JV progress is slowed down more
5: IOC would always be the weakest
Not jumping up and down with joy but we now would be part of an full blown operating company creating cash, paying dividends, protected-preferred sovereign PNG company. Those pushing that we must have 12, 13, 14, 15 Ts, many or most will be counting that you were right.
The 66% is of votes cast, not outstanding shares.
Best now is that they keep on proving things up to max
With Total buying chunk of PRL15 from OSH they likely have buyer(s) for 15-20% lined up or close to it. Japan? SK? China? Exxon?
Micah comment about announcement prob delayed because of this; when will that come now?
Will be interesting to see what analysts have to say.

You are correct Pal.
That's why I said IOC as a standalone entity is no longer possible.
We must accept that there will be a deal.
WE MUST FIGHT TO GET THE DEAL SWEETENED
1. 25% of OSH instead of 14%
2. CVR at US$ 1.0 per mcfe; not US$ 0.77 per mcfe
3. Floor Price of US$30.00 per CVR

Also, with viable production assets now locked up OSH (and Exxon?) can now move ahead quickly and for that OSH shares should appreciate? Will they become an acquisition target more sought after now?
O'Neill will put pedal to metal on project(s) with elections on horizon. Japanese and petro projects along with others can now plan timetables.

Agree trans. This is LT better than anything we'd get as things will start moving now as they should. I'm not jumping up and down thrilled, but I could see where things were headed until we finally get a plant up and running and finally get some cash flow, and it would be very tough. PPS would be well below $31 for a good time and continue to be heavily discounted until cash flow from operations was coming in.
Cash in your pocket is nice, but look where it gets companies like Apple. Prospects are nice, but for IOC only seen as cash eaters.
