State-run
Kuwait
Oil
Co., or KOC, is preparing a future plan for exploration at deep geological
levels with the aim of producing 1.5 million cubic feet a day of natural gas
from new discoveries in order to meet local demand, state-run Kuwait News
Agency, or Kuna, reports Tuesday, citing an executive.
These layers, called the Khuff and pre-Khuff strata, reach such depths of as
much as 7,000 meters in
Kuwait
, the
news agency reports.
KOC has decided to thoroughly study these geological strata because the world's
largest gas fields in
Qatar
and
Iran
are
located at similar depths, Ahmad Al Eidan the company's exploration manager,
said according to Kuna.
Eidan was talking Tuesday on the occasion of a workshop by the European
Association of Geoscientists and Engineers organized by his company, the news
agency says. The workshop discusses the prospects of natural gas exploration in
the
Arabian Peninsula
, it adds.
