Abstract
The Parties have agreed upon the median line between points of baselines from which the territorial sea of each Party is measured as the delimitation of those parts of the continental shelf over which each party exercises sovereign rights for the purpose of exploration and exploitation of natural resources. The median line shall consist of straight lines between points set out in article 2. The Parties may establish terminating points on each side in consultation with third States that exercise rights over neighbouring marine areas. A separate agreement may be concluded for the exploitation of natural resources on or in the seabed extending over the median line.
