Outer limit of the continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles
In the Law of the Sea, the continental shelf located beyond 200 nautical miles affects the seabed and its subsoil on which the coastal State exerts sovereign rights for purposes of exploration and exploitation of its natural ressources. In those areas, the wealth generated by the exploitation of the natural ressources are shared via the International Seabed Authority between the States which have signed UNCLOS (in particular with the developping States or the ones which do not have access to the sea).
The outer limit of the continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles is determined in compliance with the criterias of Article 76 of UNCLOS and notably by the examination of a submission deposited by the Coastal State to the Commission for the Limits of the Continental Shelf (CLCS). the outer limit of the French continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles is the final result of the national program EXTRAPLAC after the adoption of recommandations by CLCS, the delineation of the attributed areas with neighbouring States if necessary and the publication by decree.
The theme "Outer limit of the continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles" gathers the limits of the extended continental shelf which has been recommended by CLCS and published by a decree of the French Republic.

The theme "Outer limit of the continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles" is the final result of the national program EXTRAPLAC. At the end of the examination of the French submissions for the extension of the continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles, deposited in the frame of EXTRAPLAC, the Commission for the Limits of the Continental Shelf (CLCS) of UN adopts recommendations for the setting of outer limits of the French continental shelf. The outer limits of the French continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles are set by decree on the basis of the CLCS recommendations.
