It can only be good

BPC (not BPL) have spent $50 US Dollars in seismic data in The Bahamas.
They got their money by going to the market and a share offering.
What is there to be gullible about, they haven`t come to The Bahamas and asked for money, they have taken all of the risk with the intention of making a profit IF oil is found. That`s what explorers do.
I don`t think you are a banker with your ill informed comments

Then i guess you will be happy to pay more tax to pay for a renewable energy programme

I have looked in to this and it is a fantastic opportunity for the Bahamas.
A chance to wipe out the countrys debt and to provide the means to make all Bahamians lives improve.
Renewable energy needs money, lots of it, oil revenue can pay for this.
The chances of an oil spill is low, even if there was Cuba would be affected, not The Bahamas.
Most people dont realise that the world`s busiest oil shipping channel goes straight through Bahamian territory.
The whole of the Caribbean has realised the potential of this, lets not waste it.
Lets hold the government to account what they do with the revenue, a sovereign wealth fund must be set up for the people.
A chance in a generation

Soon there will be an oil region covering nearly all of the Caribbean, Guyana, Florida.
Oil shipping goes through Bahamas waters every day.
The risks are always there.
BPC will be drilling nearer to northern Cuba ans the risks are smaller than the risks that already exist.
Lets get this oil industry forward so that the Bahamas can benefit from the revenue and as long as the politicians are held to account what they do with the money.
A soveriegn wealth fund
