石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据普氏能源资讯8月22日伦敦报道，科威特石油大臣拉希德周三表示，他预计科威特将在未来几周内解决涉及邻国伊拉克和沙特阿拉伯的两个油田长期存在的纠纷。 科威特官方通讯社Kuna报导说，拉希德表示，科威特将很快与伊拉克签署协议，在年底前进口天然气并运营联合油田。 横跨伊拉克和科威特边界的油田是导致伊拉克前总统萨达姆·侯赛因在1990年入侵科威特的争论焦点。侯赛因指责科威特开采属于伊拉克的原油。 自战争结束以来，双方一直试图解决双方在油田所有权和运营方面遗留的分歧。 根据Kuna报道，拉希德说：“我们正在挑选一个全球顾问来研究联合油田项目。” 拉希德在采访中还说，沙特阿拉伯和科威特之间的中立区可能很快开始生产。 李峻 编译自 普氏能源资讯 原文如下： Kuwait aims to settle oil field disputes with Iraq, Saudi Arabia in coming weeks Kuwaiti oil minister Bakheet al-Rashidi said Wednesday he expects to resolve two long-standing oil field disputes involving neighbors Iraq and Saudi in the coming weeks. In comments reported by Kuwaiti official news agency Kuna, Rashidi said Kuwait would soon sign an agreement with Iraq on importing gas and operating joint oil fields by the end of the year. The oil fields straddling the border between Iraq and Kuwait were the center of contention that led to former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein invading Kuwait in 1990. Hussein had accused Kuwait of tapping crude that belonged to Iraq. Since the war’s end, the two sides have attempted to resolve lingering differences over ownership and operation of the fields. “We are in the process of selecting a global consultant to study the joint fields project,” Rashidi said, according to the Kuna report. Meanwhile, the Neutral Zone between Saudi Arabia and Kuwait could begin production shortly, Rashidi said.
