The article also adds substance to the reasoning behind production slowdown at Pod 1 early this year, and comments on the difficulty of the decision. Plus DG remarked about the approach to ramping back up to 10k bbl/d, and that he believes it will be done.

The only aspect that made me a little nervous was the comment about CLL's position being "bulletproof." For example we were blind-sided (maybe DG and staff weren't) this morning with BP's huge Gulf deposit finding.

Connacher has their own copy of the article posted here, which is formatted a little better and includes a mailing label. :-o)

Interesting reminder that 400M bbl/reserves pumped at 50kbbl/d > 20 years of production.
