    The country at large will default in the next six months. There will be a run on the banks, and hole in wall will run out of cash.
    Enda Kenny will retreat over the Shannon to Mayo, and declare in independent Republic of Mayo. The oil off the Mayo coast will be nationalised, in the name of the new republic.
    Mayo will go from strength to strenght, while the rest of us sink.
    All Ireland football final will be held in Castlebar, and will be sponsored by Mayo Oil Refinery Inc. Naturally Mayo will win, and Sam McGuire will reside for decades to come in Mayo.:cool:

    I still don't understand what you are looking for as your question is vague somewhat.

    What kind of info do you mean? That they have discovered oil or that they hold a view in terms of exploration and refinery?

    Does your question also include gas off the west coast?
    Is your question targetting one project in particular?

    FYP. Forget about the parties, do we have any official info saying exactly how much oil we have?

    We have threads here every week about the "trillions" of euros worth of oil and gas off the west coast, and lots of stats about how little tax we charge on it, yet we have not produced one single barrel of oil. Some people think we are sitting on a fortune but Ray Bourkes dirty deal is losing us billions every year yet nobody, Irish state or private company, has made a penny from Irish oil! This mythical oil is not the answer to all our problems.

    The OP is unclear in what he's asking, we have a thread on this virtually every week displaying a variety of depths of ignorance and sheer fantasy, and the thread has already attracted people who think relevance is a town in Middle America.

    Closed. Not even worth merging.

    moderately irritated,
