@mummyinthecity.bsky.social do you get bored of Hampshire's riches? Not a gin drinker but looks like there's a lot down here

Sure and it makes sense. Challenge is the inherent volatility in non gas source. Will UK energy become as basket case as Eskom?

Looks like he's at least going to appear to try and do it - then probably blame the anti democratic EU for stopping it, which will be echoed by the two other parties. Putin suggested it. Good way to destabilise EU

When I was very sick and spent 3+ weeks in hospital, the vast majority of staff, particularly non doctors, did not have british accents and a lot of them will not have - when they came - A-Alevel standard education. But they kept the hospital going and me alive.

At significantly lower risk to rhe ICE sicherdienst operators than was the case for the poor bastards flying above occupied Europe at 20000 ft

Bits of Australia been doing this for some time- but benefit from low population. Batteries will be a major part of energy systems.

How do you rebuild if its not profitable extracted? Who does the exploration / production and development and who funds it? My point was technical and financial - yes there's probably gas there but is it commercial? If not can it be funded by sovereign ,/ 3rd parties?

It would need a massive sovereign guarantee and external support to happen. Maybe that's what is necessary but those fields won't make much commercial sense to anyone.

Recoverable and at what cost? There's no infrastructure and no one to sell it to. Those fields would be marginal in a lot of developed gas markets.

They called an aircraft a "growler". This is a wonderful thing. Like when I persuaded a large energy company to call a secret M&A project "Project Flange"
