Kerm / Parrafin

About 10 years ago, when Hibernia looked like it had very little chance of actually proceeding, someone described it to me as "the world's tallest candle", referring to the very high parrafin content of the oil. The inference was that, at least with the technology at that time, the high wax content was yet another factor making Hibernia marginally economic at best. Evidently the problem has been overcome.
