Re: Libyan Oil's future - IN THE HANDS OF A BRITISH MERCENARY..
LONDON—U.K. independent oil and gas explorer Heritage Oil PLC Tuesday became the first new foreign firm to strike a deal to enter the Libyan oil sector following the war through its acquisition of a Benghazi-based oil services company.

Although incumbent majors like Total SA and ENI SpA have resumed some production in Libya, new oil companies are salivating at the prospect of joining them in exploring the country with the largest oil reserves in Africa following the fall of Col. Moammar Gadhafi in August.

Heritage said its 51% controlling stake in Sahara Oil Services Holdings Ltd., which it is buying for $19.5 million in cash, means the firm will be "well placed to play a significant role in the future oil and gas industry in Libya." Sahara has permits and licenses to provide onshore and offshore oil field services in Libya, as well as the right to bid for and operate oil and gas licenses in the country.

Anthony Leslie Rowland "Tony" Buckingham is an oil industry executive with a significant share holding in Heritage Oil Corporation. Heritage is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange since 1999. Recently,[when?] Heritage listed on the London Stock Exchange. Buckingham's direct and indirect share holding is estimated to represent 33% of Heritage. This share was reduced in November 2007 via a share placement made through JP Morgan and Canaccord.
Buckingham is a former partner of the mercenary provider or private military company Executive Outcomes.[1] He has had no involvement with such organizations since 1999 and has focused his time on running Heritage.

This is creepy.

Does this mean the military will take over oil production ?

Is it joining forces with the oil companies and the military ?

Poor Libya, they had no idea what was about to happen

WOW.... in it deep...

Executive Outcomes was often loosely linked with the United Kingdom private military company Sandline International, but in 1997 Sandline directly subcontracted Executive Outcomes for their operation in Papua New Guinea to oust the rebels holding the Pangua mine on Bougainville Island which led to the so-called "Sandline affair" when news of the government's intention to hire mercenaries was leaked to the Australian press.

Sandline International was a private military company based in London, established in the early 1990s.
It was involved in conflicts in Papua New Guinea in 1997 (having a contract with the government under the then Prime Minister Julius Chan) causing the Sandline affair, in 1998 in Sierra Leone (having a contract with ousted President Kabbah) and in Liberia in 2003 (in a rebel attempt to evict the then-president Charles Taylor near the end of the civil war).
Sandline ceased all operations on 16 April 2004. On the company's website, a reason for closure is given:
“The general lack of governmental support for Private Military Companies willing to help end armed conflicts in places like Africa, in the absence of effective international intervention, is the reason for this decision.
Without such support the ability of Sandline to make a positive difference in countries where there is widespread brutality and genocidal behaviour is materially diminished".

Our Tony seems like a really nice guy....

Mercenary past of UK oil tycoon Tony Buckingham

FEW chief executives can claim so colourful a background. Was he an accountant who diligently plugged away at the numbers before slipping gracefully into the top job? Certainly not. Someone who quietly climbed the corporate greasy pole to become the main man at his lifetime employer? Not a bit of it.
