SOMO原油和天然气营销部门负责人Ali Nazar Faeq Al-Shatari在阿格斯原油论坛间隙表示，“我们期待收购储罐，为我们在亚洲这一主要市场获得设备。”

Iraq's SOMO looks at acquiring oil storage in Asia

Iraq's state oil company SOMO is looking at acquiring oil storage in Asia and is open to discussions on more profit-sharing agreements as it seeks to expand its foothold in the region, a senior official said on Wednesday.

"We're looking forward to acquire storage tanks, to acquire facilities in the major market for us which is Asia," Ali Nazar Faeq Al-Shatari, head of the crude oil and gas marketing division at SOMO, said on the sidelines of the Argus Crude Forum.

"So any other profit-sharing agreement or deals, that may serve these purposes, we may study it," he said, adding the deals should not cause conflict of interest with existing agreements.

SOMO has formed a joint venture with Litasco, the trading arm of Lukoill, and has started supplying Basra crude to Chinese partner Zhenhua Oil which it will form a joint-venture with soon.
