Rossy, PRMSA, and W. Don Welch, execu- tive director of the South Carolina Port Authority. In an address before the Charleston, S.C., Propeller Club, Miguel A. Rossy, deputy executive director of operations and financial audit, Puerto Rico Maritime Shipping Au- thority, said that PRMSA's service, beefed up by 2,000 new containers and trailers, will strengthen the economic ties between the island and Southern states this year. The Puerto Rico Government-owned mer- chant fleet represents the third largest con- tainer fleet in the U.S. merchant marine, Mr. Rossy said. Charleston is one of six U.S. mainland ports served by PRMSA. Other ports of call include Port Elizabeth, N.J., Baltimore, Md., Jacksonville and Miami, Fla., and New Orleans, La.

Conoco And Gulf Oil Enter Agreement With British On North Sea Oil Production A Continental Oil Company spokesman has announced the signing of a participa- tion agreement with the British Government concerning oil production licenses in the North Sea and called the arrangement a "mutually beneficial one." Jack Reynolds, chairman of Continental Oil Company, Ltd., said the agreement will be a continuation of Conoco's "long and excellent relationship with the British Government." Conoco, Gulf Oil and the British National Oil Corporation each has had a one-third interest in the licenses, with Conoco the oper- ator. Under the new agreement, Conoco and Gulf each has transferred to BNOC a per- centage of their title to the licenses, increas- ing BNOC's share of the license title from one-third to 51 percent. Existing arrange- ments covering capital investments, owner- ship of produced oil and decision-making, under which the three parties have equal voting rights and obligations, have not been modified. Thus, Mr. Reynolds emphasized, Conoco's economic interest remains un- changed. Also, BNOC has the option to buy from Conoco and Gulf, at market prices, a share of their oil production from the license areas sufficient to increase BNOC's total share of oil at each location from one-third to 51 percent (excluding royalty oil). All past and future oil discoveries under existing licenses will be subject to the agree- ment, and no further participation in these licenses with respect to oil is to be sought by the Government, Mr. Reynolds said. Natural gas production from the Viking Field in the southern sector of the North Sea is not affected by the agreement.
