Looks like I hit a sensitive nerve

What is the mechanism for the government of Bangladesh to know it’s getting a full seismic survey? If Exxon explores all blocks and releases some of the data, and claims there isn’t any bordering blocks with India. Is there any precedent for an oil company, then going to make a better deal with a neighboring country, and sideways drilling into the reserve from over the line.Marine Seismic survey and associated data processing isn't as capital intensive as the long term investment in drilling and production. Once data from the survey is analyzed Bangladesh will have very good estimates of the oil and gas reserves in the basin. If the reserves are substantial, investors from all over will want a piece of the action. However, things could get tricky if the reservoir spans both Indian and Bangladesh territorial waters/EEZ. I know the Indian Navy is particularly sensitive about Seismic surveys in the Bay of Bengal. It is true past efforts have been unfruitful due to the incompetence of the government in power at the time.
Good luck.
Also there's only one country very possibly in the whole entire world that has done very well and of fossil fuel raw resource extraction. It does have its own problems.
I would like you to try name it?
I know , but I want you to know.

Also when there's a massive oil spill due to the corporations profiteering and cutting corners off shore its the government's that's obligated to clean it up. The companies just take the money.
So bdesh will have to use that what ever money it gets from it, to pay off the debt for them taking our wealth. Effectively we would be paying them to rob/theif off us. How stupid is this.
Also they make a mess all over our garden and house we out of our own pocket have pay to clean it up.
Who said Jakarta is underwater ? Only fool who believe on Youtube or Western news without using their critical thinking to absorb that news.
Jakarta sinking problem is being addressed as you can see on Nusantara thread I make in Indonesian Defense Forum.
Quran is made by God. He is the one who made human has good brain. You also need good brain in order not to missinterpret the verses in Quran.
There is verse in Quran saying Abrahamic religion will conquer the world. It is true with what happen with Western colonization period. It is God making. Dutch tried hard to colonize all Indonesia. It can colonize all of them just in 1920s. It is God decision to make Indonesia. It is by design by Him.
In Quran He said that the Glory and Fall period are turned in order to test who are the real believer among us.
Flat Earth is not Muslim conception, it is western world conception. Muslim empires are the ones who believe earth is round and this is why they can sail into Indonesia using ship. Only after Muslim invaded Spain that Muslim concept is taken by the West and Colombus from Spain can find American continent.
Quran never said Earth is flat, it said Earth surface is in majority is flat, not mountenous so people can easily live on Earth.
Christian World is still part of Abrahamic Religion.
The Marine seismic vessel is legally restricted to Bangladesh territorial waters and EEZ.Seismic survey is considered commercial activity and not innocent passage so if the vessel conducts survey on the Indian side the crew risks legal action by the Indians.What is the mechanism for the government of Bangladesh to know it’s getting a full seismic survey?
Could Exxon keep the some of the results secret from the Bangladeshis?The Marine seismic vessel is legally restricted to Bangladesh territorial waters and EEZ.Seismic survey is considered commercial activity and not innocent passage so if the vessel conducts survey on the Indian side the crew risks legal action by the Indians.
If a reservoir spans the border of both nations the best thing to do is reach a sharing agreement with the neighbor e.g. North Sea UK and Norway or Khafji between Kuwait and Saudi. Or you risk war with your neighbor for stealing their resources.
lol noCould Exxon keep the some of the results secret from the Bangladeshis?
lol no
it all depends on the due diligence of the host nation. If they are asleep at the wheel or expect and receive bribes from the operator - sure, the outcome will not be favorable. However, companies that are under the jurisdiction of the SEC can be heavily fined for corruption.Evil corporations, nothing surprises me these days
Bold part: Not all parts are similar to each other. I have not studied the geology of Guyana Surinam, but the BoB and BD geological formation is completely different from other sea areas of the sub-continent.You maybe aware that Exxon Mobil has made large oil and gas discoveries in offshore Guyana- Suriname region- the so called Stabroek fields. I understand the geology of the Indian subcontinent is very similar and there are possibilities of large offshore discoveries here too.
This as I have said many times here, this will be an ecological disaster. Considering the numerous of oil spills that has happened in history and even till today.
Only difference is the we have our terrifying and magnificent cyclone that will be a air pick and air drop of trillions of gallons of toxic cancerous on to Bangladesh and surrounding areas.
Destroying our food sufficiency, live stock, grains, vegetables/fruit and human life.
It will be a also a trilateral issue between Indian- bdesh- mymmar and then reaching out to places possibly as far as Indonesia, Singapore and Malaysia
