It should come as no surprise that more layoffs will be coming.
$2 billion in write downs and there are more to come. The Falklands and Cameroon wells, as well as getting out of the Tilapia block. There is NO way Noble can sanction Susan's GAP dream known as Carmen/Diega and that alone is another $800 million in write downs. Sorry folks but Noble has GAPPED themselves into a corner. Stover et al will come out okay at the expense of another couple hundred folks who actually know something about proper geoscience.
