Total Eyes Kurdistan But Awaits Baghdad’s Nod

摘要

France’s Total is open to investing in Iraq’s northern Kurdistan region, but it would have to be in coordination with Baghdad, Chief Executive Christophe De Margerie told reporters Tuesday. “Kurdistan is part of Iraq. A lot of companies are investing in Kurdistan Iraq, and we don’t see why Total couldn’t,” he said in Kuwait City on the sidelines of the International Energy Forum (IEF) in Kuwait.
