Oil Search Valuation & Target Price, page-600

Sircorp - I have reported you for your incorrect statements a number of times, and I will keep doing it. We all have opinions, but your comment that he "blew" 80 million dollars is simply incorrect. As others have noted, the costs were more than covered by the break fee.

I actually think that the Interoil takeover by Exxon is a positive. Sure, it would have been nice for the Oil Search/Total deal to have gone through. However, I think that the current situation is better than if there had been no deal at all - with a continued independent Interoil.
