Anchor:

Uh, just talking about (1?)diesel in production of X on PNG. That, that discussion. You are a part of there, uh, in the P’Nyang project. That went quiet at the start of the year. That’s back on the agenda, we understand. Can you guide the market? Do you expect it to come to reconciliation? Are there new (2?)terms? Are there better terms? (3?)It was said to be ought to the money. And what’s the possibility of the deal being (4?)structed before the end of year? And, and what are the terms that maybe have improved?

)diesel in production of X on PNG. "deals in production, obviously Exxon PNG" I think he's got an Ulster accent, not very strong, like he's been living in the US and has worked on it. Still, his short "e" sounds like my short "a", so that Exxon sounds like "axon".

  • )terms We speak of the terms of a contract, meaning the component parts.
  • I think he is using this loosely to mean the conditions that investors will face.
