Endeavour's delay fattens wallets of workers, city

Although Buccaneer Oil Alaska got from the city of Homer an extension to Dec. 8 to moor its jack-up rig, the Endeavour-Spirit of Independence, at the Deep Water Dock, it doesn't look likely state permits will be issued by Saturday to allow it to put legs down at the Cosmopolitan site off Anchor Point and begin oil and gas exploration.

well the truth has finally came out you had better check with the harbor master to see if the check has hit the bank. bucanneer energy doesnt have the money to make payroll let alone dock fees. the people of alaska had better check into where there millons of dollars went to in this shell game ponzy scheme. thanks buccaneer for the wonderful pink slip for xmas so dont sell your b.s economic stimulas plan and your b.s supposedly state of the art rig.. oh by the way state of the art rigs have flush toilets. this rig is so old and out of date they wont even drill with it in the sewer water off the coast of good old vietnam. 23 years of drilling experience 12 in alaska and I have never seen anything this run down whos going to pay the bill when it topples into the cook inlet with 35 men spewing crude oil.. ALASKA UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE..the games up bucaneer. you come to alaska selling snake oil you had better have the money to buy water to put in the bottles..
