Due to Novoco offices being inundated with private emails requesting clarification on the previous post of the 1.5 Billion barrels of oil recoverable structure near Hibernia, we are issuing this news clarification. 1) This news is of no benefit to small stock investors because: i) It will probably be over 7 years from now before the well will be drilled due to: a) The time remaining for oil companies to study the data package, place sealed bids, and to win that bid, b) The industry standard of only performing seismic surveys as part of their bid package, c) The time period for the licence extension to drill the prospect. ii) The oil industry practice of distributing risk between companies will likewise disperse the structures profitable ownership. iii) Each participants share in the $30 Billion structure will not make too large an improvement in the explorers share value because these are amongst the richest oil companies on earth. 2) Therefor profitable speculative investment in possible winners of this block is too prolonged, diluted, and still uncertain to be preferable over other stock investment opportunities. 3) The information presented is of principle interest to oil explorers who may want to easily outbid a seismic package with the inevitable exploration well in the first phase of exploration. The time difference is just a couple of years, and the cost of the well is less than the cash paid to merely purchase the right to explore some Gulf of Mexico blocks. 4) For small investors to benefit, and to avoid being besieged with emails, we will hereafter post the winners of the Newfoundland Atlantic exploration block, and advise the time range within which an exploration well would be required. Thank-you for your interest WRS Novoco President Review the prospect and other related pages at http://www.avalon.nf.ca/~incaoil/nfecpros.htm
