If Kerkûk is attached to Kurdistan officially, KRG should ban BP from doing business in Kurdistan because of their attempts to steal our oil. THey should hire Korean, Norwegian, Japanese, Chinese or American instead. |

lol would like to see the look on Shaytan's face Iraq sweetens new oil project terms to compete with Kurdistan [10:04] 13/Sep/02 PNA - Iraq has offered investors more lucrative terms to tap a large oilfield and build a refinery, while blaming Royal Dutch Shell for under producing billions of dollars’ worth of crude. The Nasiriya oilfield holds reserves of more than 4 billion barrels and could contribute to Baghdad’s plan to treble output by the end of this decade with the help of foreign companies. But Iraq’s output has slowed this year and companies have complained about their slim margins on existing service contracts. Some have angered Baghdad by signing contracts with the semi-autonomous northern South Kurdistan in search of better terms. “The oil ministry was keen to draft a contract which includes more lucrative and sweetened terms compared to the previous service contracts,” an Iraqi oil industry source said. “In this contract, operators will have no state partner and no signature bonus should be paid. That definitely will bring more profit for the project's operator.” The project involves developing the southern field and building a 300,000 barrel-per-day refinery. Previous agreements have stalled. In 2009, a Japanese consortium was selected to invest, but negotiations fell apart. More hopeful of progress this time, Iraq in March short-listed seven international oil companies (IOCs) to bid in an auction planned to be held in December this year, and added five more companies to the list earlier this month. “It is going to be with completely different contract shapes that are going to be very attractive to the oil companies,” Iraq’s Oil Minister Abdul Kareem Luaibi said earlier this year of the investment terms for Nasiriya. - See more at: http://www.peyamner.com/English/PNAnews.aspx?ID=319604#sthash.VvTnjIpr.dpuf |

Taqa seeks Kurdish approval to start pumping oil Join our daily free Newsletter MENAFN - 05/09/2013 (MENAFN) Abu Dhabi National Energy (Taqa) seeks an approval to transfer 30,000 barrels per day (bpd) from its field in Kurdistan in Iraq, The National reported. The oil company is currently discussing its development plan with the Kurdish government to get approval for pumping its oil. While 30,000 bpd are considered very little, Taqa is planning to expand its production further as the Kurdish government seeks to increase its exports. Taqa owns 53.2 percent stake in the Atrush field in the Kurdistan region which it bought from General Exploration Partners at the end of last year. http://www.menafn.com/1093695672/Taqa-seeks-Kurdish-approval-to-start-pumping-oil?src=RSS |

most interesting facts i found is about Iracki Govt letting Iran steal Kurdish oil in Xanaqin's Naftxana's oilfield. shame on irack, and KRG is silent about this!? wait i know why, PDK doesn't care as Xanaqin is a PUK stronghold, and PUK doesnt care as Iran is close to them!!! Xanaqinis should take this matter into their own hands |

Turkey on menu for Miran gas [13:58] 13/Sep/05 PNA - listed Genel Energy is targeting the Turkish market for future exports from its Miran gas field in south Kurdistan after gaining a key official approval that brings it a significant step closer to development. The Anglo-Turkish player, led by chief executive Tony Hayward, is now set to enter the development period having secured approval from the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) of its declaration of commerciality for the discovery. Genel, which has 100% control of the licence after its acquisition from Heritage Oil, is now working with the KRG on a plan to commercialise gas from the field with a view to signing an agreement for gas exports to Turkey by the end of this year as it moves towards project sanction. Head of business development Charles Proctor said the company’s Kurdistan gas business “has the potential to supply a significant portion of Turkish demand growth”. Kurdistan is though proceeding with construction of a new oil pipeline to Turkey bypassing the Iraqi transport network that is reportedly due to be completed by the end of this month, with Genel believed to be planning to send output from its Taq Taq field through the route. The company has earlier angered the Iraqi authorities by trucking Taq Taq oil across the border to Turkey due to the halt of an export pipeline. The Miran field is estimated to hold gross mean contingent resources of 3.5 trillion cubic feet of gas, as well as 95 million barrels of oil and condensate, in the Miran West structure. There is also further upside potential in the Miran East and Miran Deep prospects, with an exploration well lined up at the latter next year, and Genel estimates the block could hold 8 Tcf of gross recoverable contingent and unrisked prospective resources. The operator last month brought online an early production facility for the field’s oil with the first well producing at 2000 barrels per day. - See more at: http://www.peyamner.com/English/PNAnews.aspx?ID=319920#sthash.sfP6jjhj.dpuf |

Gulf Keystone wins Kurdistan oilfield case By Christopher Williams4:52PM BST 10 Sep 2013 Shares in the company surged following the decision at the Commercial Court in London and closed up 17pc at 219p, edging its valuation towards £2bn. Analysts said the defeat of the $1.6bn (£1bn) claim would make AIM-listed Gulf Keystone more attractive to big oil buyers keen to exploit Kurdistan. The case was brought by Excalibur Ventures, which said it was entitled to 30pc of the Shaikan oilfield. The land is believed to hold at least 12 billion barrels of oil. Excalibur sued Gulf Keystone and Texas Keystone, a company founded by Gulf Keystone chief executive Todd Kozel, which holds a small share in the oilfield in trust for Gulf Keystone. Mr Kozel said: “We are very pleased to have achieved the best possible outcome from the point of view of the company and our shareholders. “We understand that the legal process must take its course once a claim has been lodged, but it has been unfortunate that the company and its shareholders have experienced significant uncertainty and concern over the last two and a half years and that its executives have been engaged in a protracted and costly dispute to protect the position of the company and its shareholders.” Excalibur, a two-man outfit run by former US special forces soldier Rex Wempen and his brother Eric, argued it was entitled to a stake in Shaikan after it helped introduce Gulf Keystone to the opportunity. The judge, Christopher Clarke, however found that it had “no valid claim against either Texas or Gulf to an interest” in Shaikan. Even if Excalibur had originally had a valid claim, he said, it breached the terms of its collaboration agreement with Gulf Keystone and invalidated it. Following its victory, Gulf Keystone said its next priorities were moving from AIM to the main market in London, and ramping up operations at Shaikan to produce 20,000 barrels per day by the end of the year. In spite of the boost, some analysts suggested potential suitors for the company could be put off by political wrangling between authorities in semi-autonomous Kurdistan and the Iraqi government. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/energy/oilandgas/10298707/Gulf-Keystone-wins-Kurdistan-oilfield-case.html |

I heard that our PM said "we will let SK citizens buy shares in oil deals" I find this offensive as foreigners can buy shares in our oil we the citizens of SK MUST have a share free of charge it don't matter how much it might be. I can work it out that each SK family will get $20,000 per month it's our share and right if current Gov't can't deliver then another Gov't needs to take over by majority people's wish to secure their rightful rights in South Kurdistan's wealth.. Not just few persons and two families.. |

This is for SK residents only, so you have to be a resident of SK if you want to invest. But I think every family will be given a share (so you don't have to buy/invest yourself, it will be like Dubai I think. Probably not 20K every month, but it will be enough for people to stop working I guess). |

but only those who are working should get a share. if nobody works, the econmy would crash and KRG would import immigrants for bad jobs. i would say every person who works at least 30 hours the week should get a share. the more someone works, the higher the share |

No, there should be no demands or anything. Some people can't work or live abroad, but they are still citizens of SK. Everyone who wants to receive it, should go back, swear loyalty and do for example charity work once in awhile, or preserve nature, etc. instead of having a real job (if they don't want to, they don't have to have a real job, it's still their right to have a share, especially if they're from a patriotic family with a lot of shahids). I know this could result in a lot of Kurds not working, but they should encourage people to work by other means. Like increase of your share, or with patriotism, by funding their studies, sending them abroad, etc. A lot of ways to do it. Eventually the wealth will result in population decrease and increase of foreigners, but that's inevitable in the long run. And PS: very few people in SK work 30 hours a week LOL. You're talking about AT LEAST 30 hours, they don't even work that many hours now, without receiving the share LOL. I believe most people work only 4 or 5 hours per day, 4-5 days per week. (Depends on your work of course. But there is no 8 to 5 mentality. There is a 8 to 12 - afternoon sleep - mentality ). Edited by Worldwar2boy, Sep 19 13, 4:24.
