Total announced that a major offshore oil discovery has been made by Chevron Corp. at the Ballymore prospect in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. "Total Makes Major Discovery in Gulf of Mexico," at 0720 GMT on Wednesday, incorrectly said Total had made the discovery in the headline and first paragraph. It was Chevron, which has a 60% share in the well and is the operator, that made the discovery, not Total. Total has a 40% interest in the well.
