The territory of the islands is disputed by six states: Vietnam, China, Taiwan, Malaysia, the Philippines and Brunei. Despite their tiny size, the islands of the archipelago are important in terms of presence in the region. In addition, studies indicate the presence of a significant amount of oil and gas. According to the US Department of Energy, up to 5.4 billion barrels of oil and up to 55.1 trillion cubic meters of natural gas are concentrated in the Reed Bank area of ​​the archipelago.

About 45 islands are occupied by relatively small military contingents from Vietnam, China, Malaysia, the Philippines and Taiwan. The Brunei fishery area includes the southern reef, but Brunei has not made any official territorial claims.
