Iraq may offer Total, Chevron terms different from Shell for Majnoon field development

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Iraq may offer Chevron <CVX.N> and Total <TOTF.PA> terms to develop the Majnoon oilfield different from those it had given to Royal Dutch Shell <RDSa.L>, Iraqi Oil Minister Jabar al-Luaibi said on Saturday.

Iraq will develop the Majnoon oil field in southern Iraqi by its own means until it can find a foreign partner, Luaibi told reporters, adding that no company has been selected yet.

Luaibi said on Oct. 9 that Chevron and Total are among the companies that have expressed interest in developing Majnoon that Shell has said it wants to leave because of unfavourable changes to fiscal terms.
