Operator Elixir Petroleum has issued a notice of default to its Block SL-4 partner British Virgin Islands-incorporated Prontinal, after it failed to pay $9m to a seismic contractor. Elixir took over operatorship in February and contracted a 3D seismic survey in March.

The block was originally awarded to US-based real estate company 8 Investments.
