An oil leak at a drilling site in Kuwait's Al-Ahmadi oil field has had no impact on production, a spokesman for Kuwait Oil Company said on Tuesday.

The spokesman, Emad Sultan, said in a statement that specialised teams were trying to stop the leak.

"There was no fire as a result of the leak and we are still trying to bring it (the leak) under control," Sultan said.

Kuwait is a major member of the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (Opec), pumping around 3 million barrels per day. - Reuters
