Chevron Will Seek Oil In Iraq's Kurdish Region
From Houston Chronicle
Chevron Corp. will hunt for oil in northern Iraq’s Kurdish region – the company’s first major effort in the volatile country since the 2003 invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein.
The deal, made public Thursday, lands Chevron squarely in the midst of post-war Iraq’s bitter oil politics, with rival regions and ethnic groups fighting over how to develop the country”s vast petroleum reserves.
