Hey Sunshine,
It's Leechy. I did some digging like you asked, but I didn't run up all that much. It's not that the data is protected; it's just not there, like someone purged the whole nest. Haven't seen this kind of barren data store since I ran a definition search for the words ]] corporate compassion[[. Anyway, I though you might use these fragments.
PS Try not to get yourself flatlined G-K, you still owe me some yen from the last time I made you my poker bitch!
:o
- Purging the nest is unusual and uncommon. Normal execs want to keep some sort of record to use to cover their ass when in trouble. Don’t like this.
[SECONDARY TRANS INCOMING]...
The original name of the oil platform, when it was installed, was Chevron Omega. It was funded by Vander Oil, a subsidiary of Macrotech AA. It was built approx. 11 years ago, outfitted with state-of-the-art drilling and core-sampling technology. Approx 6 years ago, an undisclosed event caused the shutdown of Chevron Omega (I suspect a drilling-related accident). Following a brief stint on the inactive list, it was undertaken as a base of operation by some kind of marine research operation (possibly under Macrothech?), but no other data exists on the subject.
- So most of the original rig is old. Any retrofitting would have been for the research, not drilling. Need to dig for who fronted the marine operations.
Interesting tit-bit [1]
Chevron Alpha is the name of Macrotech's third largest comsat orbiting Earth. I wonder what/where is Chevron Beta, or whether it exists at all .
- I vaguely remember the launch of Alpha. When was it again? What is the connection, if any? Need to send out an agent to get some general information on this. Focus on publicity from Macrotech on any and all ventures associated with the name Chevron.

The merc third-party outfit currently operating the Chevron Omega should either be Black Hornet or Steele&Hawthorne, Macro's two favorite outsources for black ops and off-the-record shennanigans. I could be wrong though. If it's BH, watch your six buddy, they're a bunch of cybered cold psycos who think they have Viking heritage or something. If it's the latter, I'm told they can be bribed or bluffed, but they're no pushovers either (well-financed).
- I doubt we would be so lucky to have the S&H. Best let Nikita know, he may know of the two merc.
Looks like I owe Leech big time, again. Next time we play poker, I'll let him win again. Guy can't play poker with shit.
