Abstract
On March 9, 2003, Talisman Energy, a large Canadian independent,1 sold its 25% share of the Greater Nile Petroleum Operating Company (GNPOC) in Sudan to a subsidiary of India’s national oil company for about $771 million.2 Talisman had been in Sudan for less than four years, purchasing its 25% stake from Arakis Energy, another Canadian independent, in October 1998.3 At first glance the project appears to have been a spectacular success. In August 2000, two years after signing the contract, Talisman announced that it expected its current year’s income to be four times that of the previous year and that it now pumped more oil and gas than any other Canadian company.4 Oil production was consistently described as exceeding expectations: Sudan’s 2001 output was up 16% compared to the previous year, production was estimated to reach 300,000

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
