Saudi Arabia and Kuwait agreed on Monday to jointly develop the Dorra offshore gas field, which is expected to have a potential output capacity of up to 84,000 barrels of gas condensate per day, as well as 1 billion cubic feet of natural gas per day.
Dorra is located in the Kuwait-Saudi Neutral Zone, where production is divided equally between the two countries.
The project is a joint endeavor between the Saudi-based Aramco Gulf Operations Company and Kuwait Gulf Oil Company.
The development plan, signed by Dr. Mohammad Al-Fares and his Saudi counterpart Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman, entails the use of cutting-edge and environment-friendly methods to ramp up gas output from the project.
The gas output will be divided evenly between the Gulf Arab neighbors, at a time where soaring consumption has led to growing demand for energy in the two countries.
