Agreement between Sweden and Denmark on the Delimitation of the Continental Shelf and Fishing Zones.

The Parties agree that the demarcation line between the areas of the continental shelf, over which Sweden and Denmark respectively exercise sovereign rights regarding exploration and extraction of natural resources, shall, in principle, be the median line between the two States (art. 1). In accordance with this, but with exceptions motivated by practical and other considerations, the demarcation line shall be drawn as straight lines (geodetic lines) between points mentioned in articles 3 and 5. The demarcation line mentioned in articles 3-5 shall also be the demarcation line between the fishing zones of the two States.
