Marathon Petroleum Sri Lanka agreed to spend about $5.6 million on two offshore Sri Lanka wells this year. The tests are part of a farm in agreement with Pexamin Pacific Inc. involving 2,700 square miles offshore north and south of Mannar Island. The Sri Lankan government has divided its northwest continental shelf into 12 blocks and expects to conclude more production sharing contracts soon.
