Kuwait seeks to boost oil production, pushes on with Durra gas field

Kuwait’s oil minister announced a new strategy to boost fossil fuel production on Monday and said his country would prepare the infrastructure for the Durra gas field, which it shares with Saudi Arabia and Iran claims a stake in.
