I took a decision that I wanted to be a long-term player in Congo.

If there is the right opportunity for us to have a big oil play in Congo or somewhere else, we will definitely go for it.

Drilling in ANWR fails to lower energy prices today and sets no long term energy strategy for tomorrow.

If the government would like to hire my services to maximize value for their stake, they should approach me. No problem.

Our deals and performance speak for themselves. And whoever doesn't feel comfortable investing with us will not.

At the end of the day, yes, I'm looking to create a lot of wealth.
