Kuwait resumes talks with BP over China refinery

  • Kuwait: Wednesday, September 30 - 2009 at 09:46

Hussain Esmaiel, president of state-run Kuwait Petroleum International, has said that the country has revived talks with British Petroleum (BP) as a potential partner in a $9bn joint venture refinery it plans to build with China's Sinopec Corp, Reuters has reported. 'We understand that BP is interested with this project and location and BP has done some surveys and evaluation of the Zhanjiang site,' he said. BP was linked with the project in 2007, but last year appeared to be out of the running when Kuwait shortlisted Royal Dutch Shell and Dow Chemical Co. as potential partners for refining and petrochemicals respectively.
