Ricardo.
Please do a little more research and your missive may be worth reading.
Let me put you straight on a few points.

Licence fees- BPC were prevented by the government from drilling for a few years hence less fees to pay.

Investment by BPC- million $$$ on surveys, reports and pre drill expenses etc The private investor is responsible for 90% of that.

Profits from BPC- Have you bothered to look at the royalty fees the Govermnent have in place and read the details of the Sovereign Wealth Act?

Drilling in October- Try December 15th onwards.

All this is available to read on BPCs website.

Such a shame you choose to be - in your words "duped" by your own false information.
Take care and have a good weekend.

A commercially viable oil find could transform the Bahamian economy. All around other Caribbean countries are exploring/producing oil- Do you really want to sit and watch? Revenue used wisely can promote green energy usage, education and better health care for generations. Stop moaning and take advantage of BPC and it's investors who will be paying all the costs!

Balanced article and good reading. Thank you.

Good news for the Bahamas. If commercially viable oil is found and the Sovereign Wealth Fund uses the proceeds correctly it could benefit the population for generations.

Fantastic balanced article, thank you.

Now here's a thought-
Why not drill for oil and gas?
Bahamas Petroleum have done all the legwork, get behind them and you might be self reliant for all your energy needs!
