Neeranam Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 I met a Spanish Paeleantologist when I was at the labour office. He is working on a project in Isaan from one of the large Unis. He told me that BP are maybe starting some operations here. Said it was all top secret. I know better thanto believe strangers here in thailand all the time. Does anyone know about this. I used to work for BP in Scotland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, there is no such thing as "top secret" oil exploration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazza Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 (edited) Probably it's only a 'secret' as in "Let's not tell the poor farmers they're sitting on a fortune. We can't be paying out billions to too many Jed Clampetts now can we?" Take a look at the prosperity of the villagers who live amid the Queen Sirikit oilfields in Phitsanulok. You won't see any buffalo with gold-plated horns up there. Edited April 1, 2005 by Gazza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
