Gulfsands receives no Syrian crude payment

摘要

Dubai-Civil unrest in Syria continues to weigh on the operations of international oil and gas companies in the country, with UK-based Gulfsands Petroleum saying October 17 it had not been paid for its August production. And Gulfsands' oil output remains restricted to less than a quarter of its capacity due to European sanctions on the country. "The company has been instructed by the Syrian authorities for the time being to continue to confine daily production to approximately 6,000 b/d," Gulfsands said in a statement.
