Answer:

Each company drills two wells and experiences a profit of $22 million.

Explanation:

If each company acts independently and drills two oil wells each they will have a total of 4 wells each worth (60 million ÷ 4= $15 million.

Each company will have two oil wells which equals (2* 15 million = $30 million)

Therefore the profit for each company will be $30 million - $8 million= $22 million
