Kuwait Oil Company Makes Major Hydrocarbon Discovery at Al-Jlaiaa Offshore Field

Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) has made a hydrocarbon discovery at the Al-Jlaiaa offshore field within Kuwaiti waters, estimated to hold 800 million barrels (mmbbls) of medium-density oil and as estimated 600 billion standard cubic feet(bcf) of associated gas, equivalent to 950 mmbbls of oil equivalent.

KOC said that tests on the exploration well (Al-Jlaiaa 2) yielded promising results.

The Al-Jlaiaa field, spanning over 74 square kilometers, is the second marine field discovered under the current exploration plan, following the discovery of the Al-Nokhatha field in July 2024.
