dasman, so I guess you are saying you have been up there in the last 7 weeks, since you say Michael Wilson has been up there for that time. You should be able to answer some simple questions for us, since you have been privileged to have eated with one of the knights at his round table.
1) How many rigs did they have drilling, and how many meters were they getting through a day?
2) In what areas on the lease were they drilling?
3) Roughly, how many workers were up there and what were they doing?, you did mention a lot.

If you don't understand why I am negative, I suggest you look into how Gwr is being managed and ask some brokers what they think about it's governance or read some of the other post on gwr.

You say it sounds like I know him, please explain.
