Iraq's oil minister says talks ongoing with Chevron on West Qurna 2 oilfield

Reuters01-10

CAIRO, Jan 10 (Reuters) - Iraq's oil minister said on Saturday that talks were ongoing with U.S. major Chevron regarding the Lukoil-operated West Qurna-2 field, the Russian company's largest foreign asset.

Chevron and Exxon Mobil are among potential bidders for Lukoil's overseas assets following U.S. sanctions on the Russian oil producer.
