Vietnam’s PetroVietnam Exploration Production Corp. (PVEP) has signed an agreement to sell a 5% working interest in an oil block offshore Vietnam to Murphy Oil Corp. (NYSE: MUR), the Vietnamese company said.
Under the agreement, PVEP will jointly develop the 15-1/05 production-sharing contract in Cuu Long Basin off southern Vietnam with Murphy Oil and South Korea’s SK Innovation Co., PVEP said in a statement posted on its website on March 15.
The company didn’t disclose the value of the deal.

Murphy Oil has already invested in other oil blocks offshore Vietnam.
