Kuwait Petroleum International has confirmed its interest to take part in the development, subject to the outcome of the feasibility study, Oman Observer reported.

“We are committed to the feasibility study, and have begun a detailed feasibility study with our partner (Oman Oil Company),” said Bakheet Shabib al Rashidi, CEO — Kuwait Petroleum International.

“Based on the results — and we are expecting the results to be positive — we are committed to (being part) of the project as much as we can.”
