    Oh dear Nestor Kirchner - you tore up that Falkland Hydrocarbons deal with the UK denying the Argentine a share in the spoils.

    Yes, but his mom will be in Hades to keep him company, she pegged it yesterday at the age of 92.

    She who spawned this boss-eyed crook can now go and kick him in the knackers for ballsing it up for everybody in AR. If you believe in that sort of thing!

    @3 Indeed you are, Twinky. Far from “home”. Justifying your pointless existence. So many lies. Why don't you wait and see? Instead of pontificating on something you know nothing about. Why haven't you changed your “name” to Witless yet?

    Article above is titled....:
    “Floater options under consideration for Darwin offshore Falklands development”

    Question to Mr. Beef, our resident Oil & Coprology expert...:
    “Floater”....? Ain't that what you get if you eat all your veggies?

    Ps:
    Rockflopper flopped again today, I can see......

    @7
    Think
    Rome wasn't built in a day was it ?
    Given time ( long term ) Rockhopper will do very nicely. At the moment they have U$D 770,000,000 to invest and that is only 40% of the investment as Premier Oil is the Operator of the Sea Lion oil field. First oil via FPSO is scheduled for Q3 2017. No problem. No good looking at shares short term.

    Yawn..standard troll response from Duny...quote small fluctuation in share price, today's price is always a good bet. this is cast iron proof that the oil will never flow, this is all imperialist propaganda, they know it hurts us in the pit of our stomachs, envy a terrible thing. keep going trolls your efforts will go unrewarded, as Reich Marshall Kircher and her podgy son get richer day by day.

    @11 - slatzzz

    I agree. They should put an Argentine expat who lives in Canada, has never set foot in Argentina and knows nothing about nuclear weapons or economics, in charge of developing the project, and pay him with pesos. ;D

    Motion seconded! Send a plane to get him.... or just hire one from Britain or Russia instead.

    Make sure any Argentine staff sent to retrieve him are aware that they are dropping him off in Argentina and not the South Atlantic.

    Mind you with all the activity in the South Atlantic at the moment, there is a good chance he will end up landing on some a vessel prospecting for all that lovely Falkland oil.

    Title says: “Floater options under consideration”

    Floater needed to stop further(stocks) sinking.

    @9 Maybe a habit of only looking at the short term is what has got the Argentine economy in such a state.
    Everyone know that share prices are going to fluctuate until production (at least I hope they do, it's pretty basic economics) so current share prices are only of interest to people that are speculating on the stock market.

    @15 Oh dear. Is that supposed to be “clever”? It isn't. Don't you have any “clever” comments about the “need” for argie support facilities ashore? Except that there is no “need”, is there? Argieland is superfluous. Is that word too long? It means “useless”, “unnecessary”, “pointless”, “waste of space”. Much like argieland really!

    Finally a floating pirate target to sink in the ocean,if Australia can burn boats for 6 kg of fish we should sink this thieves for the theft of more then 6 dollars worth of oil. See you all at the bottom of the ocean pirates, prey to god I never get into a boat with explosives because I will not stop until I hit an enemy target.

    @20 Pirat_Hunter

    STOP making my country look so good! It's embarrassing..... well okay don't stop!

    Yes we do indeed protect our borders with our N.A.V.Y. and Border Protection.

    Why? Because we do not claim someone else's territory firstly and secondly because we have a N.A.V.Y. that works.

    Our N.A.V.Y. isn't sinking in port - nope!
    Our N.A.V.Y. isn't being impounded in foreign countries - nope!
    Our N.A.V.Y. isn't awaiting repairs because of unpaid bills - nope!

    No, our N.A.V.Y. is out doing its job. Protecting our borders and resources from illegal entrants and also from illegal fishermen.

    Do you even know why we burn boats? First to stop them returning again in the future. Secondly due to quarantine. Do you see Indonesia jumping up and down screaming and shouting like CFK would? Nope because we have the law on our side to do this.

    But thank you again for showing how a normal functional country uses its N.A.V.Y. I'd just love to see what happens if the Argentinean Navy tried to enter the Falkland's EEZ and sink anything. I'm pretty sure I know what will be sinking.

    It's embarrassing all this attention..... but I can live with it!
