Can anyone explain this to me

In 2005 estimates 2,480,000 was paid to Maraton petroleum and €5,805,000 in 2004 according to the Estimates page 8. they also recieved €3,995,000 from this company in 2005. and €4,900,000 in 2004 under the 1992 Finance act So in the last 2 years the goverment has got €61,000 for the explotation of the Gas of Cork. Kind of makes you wonder about the Rossport 5 and what the benifit to Ireland really will be from the Corrib Gas Field.
