Paul,

Harken's press release on Friday mentioned the sidetracking. See reply #3548 here for the full release. The relevant excerpt follows:

"As previously announced, the Islero #1 well, on the Cambulos Contract
Area, is currently drilling. This well recently encountered highly fractured
and faulted formations which temporarily resulted in a stuck drill string.
The problem was subsequently corrected and Harken is currently sidetracking
the problem zone.
The initial drilling schedule included time contingencies for such
unpredictable situations. The well is currently still on schedule and total
depth should be reached in accordance with the previously announced 60 day
schedule if no further problems are encountered."
