Stirling effort! I for one find it really inconvenient having all of the IOCs and NOCs and the oilfield service companies gathered together in Tripoli. Being so close to my customers can be infuriating, almost as much as the short drive to the international airport.
Roll on the day when everyone has the space to spread out and we can spend our time travelling between meetings on super efficient railways or gleaming new highways. Although we'll all probably have flying cars by the time it's completed.

Ha ha ha. I just fell off the chair laughing.
A city in three years, hilarious.
It will take more than 5 years just to build half an airport.

Well it must be true then.

Or a typo and the '0' dropped off after the 3.

I know a few people involved in various construction projects here. 3yrs is about what it takes for them to get paid for a 60 day invoice!
