The director of the Jubbah Municipality Department in Anbar Governorate, Qatar Al-Obaidi, announced today, Sunday, the discovery of new oil and gas fields that are not indicated by the Ministry of Oil in the regions of western Anbar.
Al-Obaidi said in a statement to “The Information”, “The Oil Exploration Company of the Ministry of Oil conducted exploration operations targeting the desert of Al-Baghdadi district in the district of Hit, west of Anbar, which resulted in the discovery of 9 new oil and gas fields that are not listed by the Ministry of Oil,” noting that “these fields contain large quantities of oil derivatives, minerals and phosphates, and the targeted areas are still subject to exploration operations.
He added, “Excavations are still ongoing, and it is hoped that the results of the excavations in those areas will be announced within the next few days,” adding that “the security forces have fully secured all the areas in which the excavations are being conducted, in addition to the explosives handling teams neutralizing the remnants of the ISIS terrorist.”
It is noteworthy that the Ministry of Oil, a short time ago, sent new seismic teams to the western regions to conduct exploration operations for oil and gas fields. LINK
