“My Bond Contacts have gone very quiet. I think this is great news. My biggest Bond Holders told me I was just going to go to voicemail so they did not get into trouble.
Group contacts are moving to set up for disbursement.
Yesterday on the banking side we saw a lot of rates populating and changing on nearly every currency we are looking at- throughout the afternoon.
This is a first. This is exciting. It sounds like Bond Holders are on NDAs and we are just waiting for notifications to come out.”
One of them is in Iraq... the 10 largest oil fields in the world, 11 APRIL
One of them is in Iraq... the 10 largest oil fields in the world
The question "Where is the largest offshore oil field in the world?" is widely asked in global economic and energy circles, particularly in light of recent developments in the oil industry and the drive by producing countries to increase their production capacity.
According to data from the Encyclopedia of Oil and Gas Fields, the obvious answer is that the world's largest offshore oil field is located in Saudi Arabia. The Safaniya field has a long history of production and huge reserves that the Kingdom continues to exploit.
The increased focus on identifying the location of the world's largest offshore oil field stems from global competition for energy resources, as Saudi Arabia seeks to strengthen its position as the world's largest oil producer and exporter through massive development projects for the Safaniya offshore field.
The question also arises: Where is the world's largest offshore oil field located? While a number of countries, such as China, are making new offshore discoveries, the Safaniya field retains the title of the world's largest in terms of proven reserves and total production.
Saudi Safaniya field
The Safaniya field in Saudi Arabia is the world's largest offshore oil field. It is located in the Arabian Gulf, approximately 200 to 260 kilometers north of Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. It has been operated by Saudi Aramco since its official discovery in 1951.
The Safaniya field extends over an area of 50 kilometers in length and 15 kilometers in width, and contains proven reserves estimated at approximately 15 billion barrels of heavy oil, while total production extracted from it to date has reached more than 19.2 billion barrels.
Exploration work on the world's largest offshore field began in 1939, after Aramco geophysicist **** Kerr noticed an underwater high area. This reinforced his prediction of the presence of massive oil reservoirs, which was later confirmed when oil began flowing in large commercial quantities on August 15, 1951.
The Safaniya offshore field represents a key pillar of Aramco's strategy to expand offshore production. It is also the fifth-largest oil field in the world in terms of total proven reserves and production, according to Saudi oil field data from the specialized energy platform.
The 10 largest oil fields in the world
The Safaniya field's importance extends beyond its status as the world's largest offshore oil field. It also plays a key role in the global energy mix, strengthening Saudi Arabia's position as a global energy powerhouse, especially as its expansion plans continue through 2027. link
