Quote from: RE on May 14, 2024, 12:29 AMSo, if these Ruskie drillers did in fact drill the "Discovery Well" and have oil samples and the "wireline", who does the oil belong to, them or the owner of the title to the property? In this case title belongs to HRH, the King of England correct?Darned if I know, international politics and machinations being what they are. But DAMN it will be fun to watch, not just among the GovCo's fighting for their cut but the protestors rowing out in their dingys to get in the way of ships carrying supplies, rigs, fuels and all sorts of other excellent pollution creating materials...unless of course they are using motorized boats in which case it is just the usual hypocritcal protest type stuff.

But entertainment value? Absolutely. The King of England sends in a naval vessel to blockage the equipment...Russia tries to send their own and it breaks down halfway to the equator....protestations are filed at the UN...and this all happens even BEFORE anyone figures out if there is actual oil there.
