As french born, I follow these places quite a lot, especially as my dad has a gift in holidaying in the most **** hole on earth there.Africa gives a pessimistic political picture. True.
Senegal is not Drc or others. Very peaceful for work.
Google Casamance ....the coast where the petrol is coincidentally...As french born, I follow these places quite a lot, especially as my dad has a gift in holidaying in the most **** hole on earth there.
He spent a month there 2 y ago in a small village on the coast, and was hardly back that the Islamists there attacked the Christian village and slaughtered 50 or so villagers.
The fact you do not see that on the ABC news does not mean it is safe.
But yes it is safer than Mali, RDC, Niger,etc

No specific knowledge Miner.@Ferret
Just curious how much are you aware of WDS Africa (Senegal) venture ?
I do have a family friend there.
Cheers
As you know, you do not get 30 guys in Bondi arriving in a market..Westfield centre and killing 50 persons on a day...We get killed in Bondi, Perth Karrinyup same. I lived and worked in Madagascar, my family member works in Senegal. Have people whose house got ransacked in Zambia, Durban.
Probability of bad law and order is of course much higher in Africa.
Brown envelope works as it works in some of the Australian based and foreign owned companies.
Nothing is safe nowadays
Let me rephrase this:I own wds
Not in detail, but strategy wise maybe, I have probably more knowledge of the world, (culture and work ) than most at the top, and enough tech knowledge cf oil, but not enough to prevent me from asking for expertise.@qldfrog , I think WDS would be better run if you did own it!
tempting , i was already luke-warm on the current crewNot in detail, but strategy wise maybe, I have probably more knowledge of the world, (culture and work ) than most at the top, and enough tech knowledge cf oil, but not enough to prevent me from asking for expertise.
Feel free to nominate me at the next AGM
Ummmmm, me thinks you are putting yourself down. Me thinks most board people aren’t that smart. A bit like polys.Not in detail, but strategy wise maybe, I have probably more knowledge of the world, (culture and work ) than most at the top, and enough tech knowledge cf oil, but not enough to prevent me from asking for expertise.

really need to get out of that one indeed, let them play with green oxygen with someone else moneyfrom the AFR .. they have to do something to get that fickle insto money back in

Woodside Energy is looking to data centres’ hunger for green power as a potential solution to the problem of finding customers willing to justify the company's commercial-scale bet on green hydrogen.
Woodside’s failure to greenlight a hydrogen project was one of the sticking points in its stand-off with major shareholders who voted down its climate action plan at the company’s annual meeting last month.
But chief executive Meg O’Neill said data centres in Singapore – which the government has insisted must provide their own green power – could provide an answer to the problem of finding customers of sufficient volume to sign-off on a project.
She told reporters on the sidelines of the Australian Energy Producers conference in Perth that Woodside was exploring the viability of “a liquid hydrogen value chain” with a couple of Singaporean data centre clients.
“With that kind of customer, we feel like we have an opportunity to work with them to find a solution that will meet their needs and allow us to make these investments in low carbon fuels."
It's got all the appearance of a slow moving train wreck, with costs a-plentyreally need to get out of that one indeed, let them play with green oxygen with someone else money
The board of WDS is looking at supplying green power to data centres as a way out of poor governance of a company with oil reserves.
The have no experience nor expertise in this.
I would agree with the above posters to avoid WDS. I'ts poor publicity is public and the last thing one needs when one has stuffed up an asset rich company is publicity.
