However BCC do have some nice gas assets & the period Nov 08 - Jan 09, will be the making of the company as several projects come into production.

I personally prefer TEX/O to BCC for a leveraged US based play.

OEL has great acreage in the Phillipines, & lots of gas in Turkey, which attracts much higher prices than the US.

I like it's portfolio of leads, with upcoming drilling (early 09) in Italy, & some farm out activity due in the Phillipines for some deep water drilling.
cheers Shasta

interesting comments re BCC - still very comfortable with them though

Nice little rise for OEL yesterday - may it continue on
