This story continues to draw tweets and re-tweets: Kuwait, Saudi Arabia to shut shared Al-Khafji field justmonths after re-start.
The shutdown comes just months after both countries agreed to resume
production at the Neutral Zone. Total production at the Neutral Zone,
which comprises the offshore Al-Khafji and onshore Wafra fields, was
260,000 b/d in April, with each country sharing output 50-50. Kuwait's
share of the Wafra field was 60,000 b/d at the time and the Al-Khafji
share was about 70,000 b/d, signaling the shut down will remove about
140,000 b/d from the market.
"There are simply no buyers. This is why everybody is volunteering cuts," the source said.
