Russian companies to start oil operations in Sudan

KHARTOUM, February 9 (AFP)-- Russian oil companies have been given
the go-ahead in principle to look for oil in eastern Sudan, a press report
said Friday.

The independent Al Rai Al Aam daily quoted Sudanese Energy and
Mining Minister Awad Ahmed al-Jaz as saying a memorandum of
understanding has been reached with Russian companies granting
those unnamed firms licences to look for oil in two areas of the country
which has an outlet to the Red Sea.

A final agreement will be concluded soon, the Minister said.

The paper quoted an official of one of the Russian firms as saying his
company had examined information and soil samples of the concession
fields and would submit the results of the examinations this week.

In light of those results, the memorandum of understanding will be
developed into a final agreement for prospection and exportation of
oil in Sudan, the Russian official was quoted as saying by the daily.

Chinese National Petroleum Company (CNPC), Canadian Talisman
and Malaysian Petronas are currently working on oil operations in
south and southwest Sudan.
