KRG statement on oil and gas press reports
Recently there has been some speculation and false claims have been published about agreements and contracts with the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) in the oil and gas sector as well as for the building of refineries in the Kurdistan Region.
The KRG wishes to make it clear that there are no such deals or contracts. If any agreements or contracts are signed, they will be announced by the KRG itself. Responsible media organisations and reporters are advised to verify with the KRG any claims made by any party before publishing such news.
To avoid any doubt, the KRG would like to draw your attention to a report published by the Beirut-based Daily Star on 13th December 2006 regarding claims made by Make Oil Company about the building of a refinery in Kurdistan. There is no such deal with Make Oil Company. The KRG does not consider that Make Oil Company would qualify to undertake such an important project in Kurdistan.
