 Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) has discovered commercially-viable light crude oil in one of its northern fields.
Most recent tests conducted in mid-August showed the well located north of the Sabriya field, produces high-quality crude oil measuring 45 degrees on the API (American Petroleum Institute) scale, the company said in a statement.
Officials said it is a significant find because it is the first hydrocarbon ever produced in Kuwait from an oil layer known as the Upper Marrat reserve, within the northern Jurassic formation.
