Questions:
I love listening to your podcast!!!
I live in Australia, where I worked in Drilling for 4 years ( firstly minerals). I lastly worked as a Roughneck for Saxon before I quit my job.
I had a traineeship lined up with Schlumberger. Well,then the downturn started and the traineeship fell through, I worked, studied and traveled elsewhere and now started studying Petroleum Engineering & Geology in Adelaide, Australia.

1. What’s your understanding of the state of EU and US sanctions on Russia? It appears that Trump wants to ease or lift sanctions eventually, but is proceeding very cautiously. Several EU countries seem to want to ease sanctions as well. The EU has another layer of issues with several interesting elections in its larger member states and its uncertain future generally. So, what do you think is likely to happen with these western sanctions in the near term?
2. Are there any countries in the world other than the U.S. where individual property owners actually own their mineral rights? Where?
3. Here’s an oil and gas 101 question. Can you talk a bit about how the process of acquiring licenses to look for and extract oil and gas int…
