Is it possible that COP will consider spinning off its L48 operations into a separate company like BP? A lot of bigger companies are thinking about such an option.

So now the IC building in bville is up for sale. The POB will be restacked to accommodate what is left. Have source close to upper mgt and yes this is the beginning of the end to Bville. Hope is P66 will buy the IC building. Won't be long and... — read more

I really think about this symposium as one giant frac job for our company, we're going to stimulate parts that haven't been stimulated before and we're going to get a tremendous amount of flush production as a result of that.

Folks are asking why we went from being a great company to where we are now. Here's the answer. 1) BoD chose who they thought would be a Great Leader rather than JJ's chosen. Instead we got a weak indecisive good old boy who has let his reports run... — read more 

If someone asks you about layoffs do not discuss it - just ignore the question - the HR is tracking email traffic and website you surf, at least here in corporate in Houston.

Guys in Calgary..beaware..Massive Layoff planned in Calgary in November... All Operations to be Centralized in U.S. CPC is in exit mode by year end. Major plan in the way.

So, here is my hypothesis.. COP bought "The Layoffs" and restricted any bad publicity as it has gone stone cold quiet around here...Come on people! speak up against the wrong doings and share those rumors!!

Was laid off from on 7/31/17 after COP sold San Juan. My last RSUs have yet to be deposited in Merrill Lynch. Does this process usually take more than 1.5 months?
