DUBAI, April 3 (Reuters) - Kuwait will ramp up oil output in
April until it reaches about 3.15 million barrels per day, the
state news agency KUNA reported on Friday, citing the chief
executive of Kuwait Petroleum Corp.
The increase in output will come from the Neutral Zone, an
area Kuwait shares on the border with Saudi Arabia, KUNA said.
Oil Minister Khaled al-Fadhel announced on Friday the
resumption of crude shipments from the Neutral Zone for the
first time in five years. Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, both OPEC
members, agreed last year to end a five-year dispute over the
zone.
