I'm not personally familiar with the area or the companies involved, but I seem to recall that someone mentioned the Falklands here in the Room not too long ago. Might do some searching and see what you come up with.

Aerosappy, you might want to ask some one on the SI Desire Petroleum thread, found here: Subject 22664
Someone there might know. As to that table, while I haven't followed the Falkland Island oil story closely, I'm not aware of any significant production from the Falkland Islands. I've only seen storys about test wells and geological surveys. I woundn't call the 60.0 Billion Barrels of Falkland oil "Proven Reserves" but a WAG based on test wells and surveys. JMO, I could be wrong.

sappy,

funny how they neglected Canada, which has some 180 Billion barrels of proven oil reserves (1.7 trillion in the oil sands, of which 11% is recoverable using current technology).
