Kurdish Authorities Confident About Region's Oil Sector

ERBIL, Iraqi Kurdistan – Over the past several years, the right to manage oil and gas deals has been a major dispute between Baghdad and the semi-autonomous Kurdistan Region which aspires to become a major global energy source with its massive oil and gas fields.

Because Iraqi officials and political observers believe oil and gas development in Iraqi Kurdistan may in the end prompt a demand for an independent state, Baghdad's reservations about Kurdistan's oil industry has political dimensions. This became clear when ExxonMobil, the world's largest oil company, signed a contract with the Kurdistan Region.

Kurdistan Region President Masoud Barzani said during a recent visit to Duhok province, "I have not met with any oil companies before, except Exxon Mobil and that is because I know the importance of its investment in the Kurdistan Region. Therefore I support them to come and invest in the fields of gas and oil in Kurdistan Region."
