In May 2020 Island Gas (subsidiary of IGas Energy Plc) acquired Total E&P UK Ltd's 20% interest in three onshore licences PEDL 273 (194 sq km), PEDL 305 (142 sq km) and PEDL 316 (111 sq km). IGas is the operator of the three licences that cover a total area of 447 sq km across blocks: SE/41e, SE/31c, SK/49, SK/59b, SK/87c SK/88b and SK/89e. Total hold no further interest in the licences and the deal marks Total's exit from the UK onshore.  All three licences are located in the East Midlands and Yorkshire. IGas is already operator of the three licences, therefore the deal has increased its interest from 35% to 55%. In 2017 Total started to reduce its stake in the three licences when INEOS acquired 30% interest from Total.   Interest in the three licences PEDL 273, PEDL 305 and PEDL 316 is held by IGas subsidiary Island Gas Ltd (55% + operator), INEOS Upstream Ltd (30%) and Egdon Resources UK Ltd (15%).
Total (20%) has exited onshore licences PEDL273, PEDL305 and PEDL316, with its 20% stake assigned to operator IGas,
