Hi Amanda & and others,
I believe there was an agreement in 1960 between Austria and Czechoslovakia for the proportional joint development of a straddling hydrocarbon field:
"The geographical scope of joint development and management zones is also very varied. A 1960 Agreement between Austria and Czechoslovakia, dealing with common land deposits of natural gas and oil, does not refer to a particular geographical area but to a certain deposit the extent of which would be determined by the States Parties, being a mixed Technical Commission empowered to calculate the resources in situ. (Austria-Czechoslovakia 1960; Lagoni 1988)

Does anyone know any more about this?

Dear Colleagues
Does anyone know of any details concerning a condominium agreement that
Bolivia and Chile once had for the exploitation of resources in an area
adjacent to their land boundary? Or indeed, know of any other past or
present examples of situations where two countries have agreed to any
form of cooperative resource development arrangement for ONSHORE
boundary-straddling resources (particularly hydrocarbons)?
Thankyou and regards
Amanda Farrant
