NO TA ON THIS THREAD PLEASE - (edit) and no pointless speculations either!
I've created this thread just to park stuff in that is only tangentially-related to SOCO's interests and doesn't relate to any of the specific assets.

Two curious things about this story - first it is apparently going to train 17,000 a year .....that should be enough to keep most of the oil and gas labour market in Asia supplied??
Second it will actually be run by Petrovietnam, according to the article - which suggests that they'd better get a move on with some project sanctions so that the poor beggars who go into it in 2015 have a bunch of places to work when they come out!
Presumably the TGT government approval must really be pretty close now??
