The way I understood it, the traditional land owners were all too happy to get the jobs and royalties associated, but were overruled by out-of-town activists.

The way I understood it, the traditional land owners were all too happy to get the jobs and royalties associated, but were overruled by out-of-town activists. Is that true or false?
- benzofuran 12y agoI've heard a number of different stories on the matter, none that I'd want to perpetuate too much. It was more economical to build the world's largest vessel and develop a lot of new technology than to deal with the issues involved with an onshore facility - interpret that however you'd like.
