A subsidiary of Murphy Oil will hold a 50% interest in the licenses, with Ratio Energies LP holding the remaining 50%. Murphy will serve as operator.
The awards expand Murphy Oil's international exploration portfolio, with the company and Ratio Energies planning to further evaluate the exploration potential of Zone G.
