ConocoPhillips to Acquire Kirkuk Stake as U.S. Firms Back $60B Iraqi Deals
ConocoPhillips agreed to take a 42% stake in BP’s Kirkuk oil-field complex in Iraq, part of roughly $60 billion in deals signed by U.S. firms to boost Iraq’s economy during Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi’s Washington visit; Barclays pegs the price at about $400 million, funded by the project’s cash flow, with other signatories including Halliburton, SpaceX Starlink, KBR and JPMorgan Chase, while Kirkuk currently yields around 328,000 barrels per day.
