The decision was made by the parties who are entitled to vote on the block, also referred to as the Block Z-34 partners, at an Operating Committee Meeting in Lima on 9 November 2017.
As a result of the decision, if they agreed to do so the partners could now also request that the $3.6m work programme guarantee bond be released.
Baron believed it could recover a substantial portion of the bond, free of tax.
