MACHINERY WHIRRING AND GRINDING

SIREN WAILS

There is no oil in the North Sea. All the major companies are leaving.

There's 37 dry wells drilled. We're bleeding money. We need to get out.

OK. I understand. So the rig is the problem. The rental.

We can't carry it any more. We need to sublet it. To who,

if other companies are pulling out?

Shell may want to have a go at block 6-10.

So you want me to talk to Shell.

Look, sir, I can still make the 1:30 flight to Houston.

You need to be where it all plays out...

..Norway.

"Stavenger." What kind of place is that? Stavanger.

Stavanger. It's a small fishing village.

It's religious, rainy, cold.

No real summers, no real winters, no bars. Sounds great.

We've got an office there, most of the major companies do

for another week or so. Your plane's leaving in three hours. Right.

So, basically, you want me to get out as quickly

and cheaply as humanly possible?

That's right.

SIREN WAILS Good luck.

Thanks, sir.

Sir, I was kind of hoping for a senior position when I get back.

Sure. If you can fix it.

That's what I do, I fix.

Good. Thank you, sir.

PLANE ENGINE SOUNDS

There you go, sir. Thank you.

You're welcome.

# Left a good job in the city

# Working for the man every night and day

# And I never lost a minute of sleeping

# Worrying 'bout the way things might have been

# Big wheel keep on turnin'

# Proud Mary keep on burnin'

# Rollin', rollin'

# Rollin' on the river

# Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis

# Pumped a lot of pain down in New Orleans

# But I never saw the good side of the city

# Till I hitched a ride on a river boat queen

# Big wheel keep on turnin'

# Proud Mary keep on burnin'

# Rollin', rollin'

# Rollin' on the river

It's Jonathan Kay. Here you go.

These are your keys. The stairs are over there. Have a nice stay.

Thank you.

This is our block.

Now, here, this is the 2-4,

the well our headquarter doesn't want us to drill.

Now, this has most probably been pressed up by salt,

collapsed in the middle, leaving a big cavity underneath.

This could be a giant. They don't even look at it.

Well, I guess sometimes you just got to, you know, draw a line.

But here? Now? Yeah. I mean, that's the brief.

This is not a dead field.

I mean, they've found hydrocarbons. I know, but nothing substantial.

We're obliged to drill by the Norwegian state.

I know. What? We've got another couple of years on this deal

and rumours says, "If no oil's found then Norway's going to let it go."

A rumour created by Bartlesville, Oklahoma.

So you're telling me that you don't want to pull out? Yeah.

Then who do I work for?

Phillips Petroleum.

They sent me here to facilitate a withdrawal. They? Who are they?

Are they more Phillips Petroleum than I am? Look, I don't know.

Headquarters, they pay me. I can pay you. No, you can't.

What have you got - like a three-man set-up here? I've seen.

And all your funds are channelled in from Bartlesville.

So what now?

Over to Shell to get yourself a crap leasing deal on the Ocean Viking.

We are, and if Shell decide to go for the 6-10, which they might,

then our rig's in a good place and, you know,

it might work out well for everyone.

And just how far have they authorised you to go

to subsidise Shell's success?

Look, Ed, I understand that you still hope to find something.

Do you know how many dry wells our nation has drilled? No, I do not.

470,000.

So giving up at 37, I think, is weak.

You need balls to grow big, Jonathan.

Have you spoken to anyone at Shell? Sure.

I speak to Shell all the time.

That...is your treasure map.

Where are you going?

I'm going to go and talk to Shell.

Topside to diver one. You're about to exceed your 15-minute dive.

Hurry up.

Diver one, do you read me?

Repeat, diver one, can you hear me?

Repeat, this is topside. Get your ass into the bell now.

Diver one to topside. I read you loud and clear.

Diver in the bell.

Good to see you. Pick up the bell.

Hey, Christian. How do you say three beers in Norwegian again?

Tre ol. Tre ol? Yeah.

Yeah? And what was that pick-up line?

Spille Ludo.

Flublee, what?

That's the magic?

Whoo!

All right. Spille Ludo.

Now, here's the situation.

In short, this might be our last Norwegian job.

Phillips Petroleum has sent some bad ass lawyer over from the US

to try to get out of the deal. We're pulling out of Norway.

There's no oil. What about our contract?

Santa Barbara crew will travel with us. What about the others?

Hey, I don't know what to tell you, man.

Phillips Petroleum headquarters, please.

Bartlesville, Oklahoma.

Legal Department.

It's Jonathan Kay. I want to talk to Carson.

Ah. Yeah, things are going well.

There was just one thing.

Ed Young seems to think that the 2-4 has some potential.

But, Mack...

Yeah, OK.

Yeah. No, no, I understand.

Stick to the plan. Yes, sir.

If we pull out, and in ten years' time, another operator finds oil

in the 2-4, what are you going to think about that?

That you were right and we were wrong.

So, when the guy from Shell walks in that door in approximately

one minute, you're going to know as soon as you see his face.

What are you hoping for - a yes or no?

Ed, I'm just here to make sure that Phillips Petroleum

don't go bankrupt, all right?

I don't think you care about Phillips Petroleum.

I think you're just here to impress your bosses

and get yourself a long-term contract back at headquarters.

As far as I'm concerned, you're just a corporate nobody,

with a badly-financed education.

Ed, Jonathan, glad you could make it.

Sorry, I can only stay a few minutes.

I'm catching a plane this evening

and I've got a few things to sort out, so in short...

..Shell's pulling out of Norway. We won't be needing the rig.

We're not going to drill the 6-10. I'm sorry.

Well, listen, thanks for your interest. Thank you.

It was a most generous offer. Good luck.

Two whiskeys, please. Let's make a toast on 2-4.

No, Ed, my instructions are, go for it, Shell. If not pay out to Deco.

Finish all the short-term contracts, get the rig onshore and get out.

You're an asshole.

Hi. Can I speak to Mr Carson, please? It's Ed Young.

Hi, Mr Carson.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir, I know but...if you can... Well, if you just hear me out, sir,

I... I'm 100% sure there's oil on the 2-4, I know there is.

You've got to give me the shot, one last well.

How expensive can that be while everything's in place?

Shell don't want the Ocean Viking.

But...

So, what's the price if we don't do it?

Hello?

Jonathan, what do you really think?

What I think is...

..that I should take these rolls of seismic investigations

you're talking about, catch the 7pm plane to London,

get the 11 o'clock transfer to Washington, so that

by tomorrow afternoon, our geologists will be on the floor,

going through the data, making sure not the tiniest irregularity

will pass them by. And then...

..then, hopefully, they can make the right conclusion.

What made you change your mind?

Come on. Only an asshole doesn't like a treasure hunt.

2-4!

All right. All right.

Look, I, um...

You're leaving. I'm sorry. I, er...

In short, we've decided to drill the last well. Yeah.

That's wonderful news. Now you have the chance to go down in history.

Yeah, as the company, who lost the most money

on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.

HE LAUGHS

So what can we do for you? Well, two things.

Try and make sure when the day comes that our...exit

is as smooth as possible.

No lingering payments, no small print contracts. Of course.

We'll do that. We'll do our best. Hoping it won't be needed.

And second?

If we were to find anything, we would appreciate it if our efforts

and investments were repaid by getting a more exclusive deal

in the second round of concessions.

Yeah. I thought you had given up on that.

You will never be the only operator out of Norway.

Denmark has only one operator. Well, yeah.

But Denmark has behaved in the most idiotic fashion,

calling themselves a social democracy

and giving it all away to one family, that's disgraceful. Look...

All we're asking is that you put forward our point of view

to the oil board.

Well, at least ask them to consider giving us first choice

if we were to find oil from there.

Pretend that for just one second you understand what a hell

of a drain this is for us.

Look, we understand the cost and the gamble, even the oil board does.

You've been good cooperating with the Norwegian companies,

made a real effort. So?

But when it comes down to it, you've hired some farmland, that is all.

For Shell, Esso, Gulf, Fina, farmland that proved to be barren.

You may still have the chance to harvest something

and, if you do, you will get your share.

Best of luck to you, gentlemen.

Right.

Ed... Arne... Always a pleasure. Yeah, sure.

Mr Mayor... Thank you. Oh, no, no, no. Help yourself, yes.

Goddamn socialists.

You know the US is the only country in the world

that has private ownership over its natural resources.

Exactly. And who do you think makes the most money out of that oil?

Gulf states.

Thank you.

Jon...

So, there I am, first day on the job, 90 feet down. Fucking hell,

90 feet down and then I feel it!

Oh. The whisky, the fucking breakfast. All coming up again.

Will you stop wasting our beer? It's expensive stuff.

What the fuck is that, man?... Imported from the States, man.

Can I have another one? What do you say? Please.

There it is.

You're such an asshole.

Oh.

Christian. You got overexcited again.
