Talisman has operated interests in four onshore blocks located in the Marañon Basin in northern Peru. In 2008, Talisman conducted aeromagnetic surveys in Block 134 and began evaluating an earlier discovery in Block 64. In December 2007, Talisman became the new operator of Block 64 and immediately initiated consultation and dialogue with the communities impacted by the Company’s proposed 2008-2009 exploratory drilling program. Seven communities, represented by the indigenous Achuar Federation of Situche and Anas of Morona (FASAM), were identified as being directly or indirectly impacted by the project.
