Premiers. waiting

HALIFAX (CP) ~- After years of talk and study, the
question of whether _— offshore
development will proceed off Nova Scotia should be-
answered by late summer or the fall, Premier John

. Buchanan said: ‘Monday.

“Nobadyhas definitively said ‘bang,’ Buchanasi said in’
an interview alter a one-day. meeting of the- Council of

MARITIME Premiers, ‘I’m waiting forthe firecracker." fe

Such questions. arestarting to be arked in: e'rnest in
Prina Edward Island, where Cheyron and-Irving Oll are

_ teginning ® $2é-mbilion program to _develop two °

ploratory wells off the island,

Premier Jim Lee told a news conference after the i:
meeting that P.E.L may some day bea player In: the East

Coast petroleum business.
“Tm hopeful we may be lucky enough to strike something
yery soon," he said, :

Buchanan, Lee and Premier Richard Hatfield of ‘New ;

Brunswick repeated after the council’a 62nd regular

meeting thelr position that the distribution-of natural gas,

-, regardless of the source, must benefit all three provinces.
. Of the several. drilling programs under way off Nova -

Scotia, the Venture natural gas project operated by Mabil

Oll Canada Ltd, is the most advanced.

Results from the drilling of'a step-out well are ‘expected to”

bereleared In August and Buchanan sald it should be known
then whether the Venture reserves are big enough to. justify
_ development. ‘

If they are, pricing talks, the advanced identification of

‘Maritime and export markets and other negotiations will

take place and before thé year is out, a ‘decision should. be

made whether- to proceed, he aaid.

‘The pace of development may remain unclear ator some ;

time yet, he added, “The markets ill determine that.”
Mobil’s plan, should the gas be developed, is to bring it

“ashore by. 1988. ° ;
-The Nova Scotia’ governnient, saying repeatedly the

offshore will become the engine of economic growth, has
been speaking about the Industry as though its buccess is
almost-certain. -

But Buchanan, host of Monday’ 8: meeting, sald he didn't -
want to say anything that would give rise to big headlines

about the offshore. “I'm prepared to wait until August.” -

Development Minister Roland Thornhill, in an address
closing the five-week throne speech. debate, held closer to
the government's usual line. -. -

“It is-our springboard into the ‘ae and. ‘we, " he sald.
. "It-ds owt way up out of the recession.” .

Buchanan sald there has been discussion In vogue lerms

about the pdsslbility of New Brunswick taklig an equity:

position in a pipeline distributing gas from. ‘the

. Nova Scotia offshore.

Nova Scotia ‘has the right under the federal-provincial
offshore agreement to take 50-per-cent ownership of a gas
pipeline. It could offer partof that share to New Brunswick,
perhaps in exchange for wheeling rights if the pipeline goes

through the province to the U.S,

Few details have been worked out on the ‘commerclal
transmission of gaa, The premiers assume a pipeline would
involve New Brunwick as well as Nova Scotia but are not

‘ gure about P.E.1.

Buchanan sald the councll believes that if natural gas is
not made available ‘to P.E. 1, the province should get a

subsidy as compensation. But lee said-he didn’t know who

would pay the mubsidy.

“And for the man who has
' everything, we have this
..personal nuclear deterrent.”

“St, JOHN ‘Ss, Nid, (Py: — For a ‘proper scoff of flippers,
the uninitiated mainlander needs: at least-one New/foun-
dland seal flipper; a slab of fat-back pork, onions," a turnip,

But back to the novice seal-meal chef and his enquiries,

It is at this polnt, when the cullnary explorer girds
himself and: says “I'll take one’ in an unmistakable New

'. Brunswick accent, that the vendor ard his. cronies take up.
_ the cry: “your first thine, eh?”

Advice is offered on the preparation of the delicacy. An -;
