Abstract
Abstract This work analyses the concrete application of Articles 74 and 83 of UNCLOS, 1982 which enjoins states to find a resolution to their maritime boundary disputes. It uses the Nigeria–Sao Tome and Principe model of joint development agreement to achieve this by critiquing the important provisions of the agreement. It demonstrates that amicable maritime disputes resolution for resources ownership and control can be achieved by negotiations and agreements. This is authoritative third-party authorities like the ICJ and international arbitral institutions. And pending a more permanent delimitation and resolution, cooperative resources development would emerge and possibly thrive.
