Iraq signs agreement with US energy giant Chevron on oil exploration

Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al Sudani announced an agreement in principle on Tuesday between the Ministry of Oil and US energy company Chevron. Mr Al Sudani's office said the agreement includes four exploration blocks, the development of the Balad oilfield and possibly other fields and projects. During a meeting with Chevron vice president Frank Mount in Iraq, Mr Al Sudani welcomed the company's return to work in the country, 'affirming that the government has adopted a different approach in dealing with major oil companies and their investments in Iraq, particularly American ones', his office said. Mr Al Sudani also spoke of Chevron's efforts in transferring oil technology to Iraq, its community contributions and environmental policies it follows in its oil projects. Mr Mount celebrated the "heads of agreement" with Iraq as an important milestone. 'Iraq is a major producer of crude oil and holds substantial oil and gas resources," he said in a statement. "We are confident that Chevron, with its proven track record and expertise in successfully developing oil and gas projects, has the resources, experience and technology to support Iraq to further develop new energy resources.' The agreement in principle follows one made by US company SLB – formerly known as Schlumberger – in July. The contract signed between Iraq's Ministry of Oil and SLB was aimed at boosting natural gas production at the Akkas gasfield. Iraq's Oil Minister Hayan Abdel Ghani said at the time that the deal aimed to raise production levels to 100 million standard cubic feet a day. Mr Al Sudani also held talks with Baker Hughes chief executive Lorenzo Simonelli this year to discuss the US energy technology company's projects in Iraq. Despite being the second-largest producer in Opec, Iraq still depends on Iran for about a third of its electricity needs. Baghdad has come under increasing pressure from Washington to be less reliant on Tehran.

Sheikh Hamdan directs creation of Dubai AI Seal for businesses

Dubai has introduced artificial intelligence seals to make it easier for businesses, organisations within the government and other stakeholders to evaluate companies promoting AI services. The creation of the labels came under the directive of Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed, Crown Prince of Dubai, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defence, to bolster trust in the AI offerings throughout the emirate. "We are dedicated to establishing an enabling environment for the advancement of the AI industry in Dubai," Sheikh Hamdan said. He said he hoped the AI seals will "drive economic growth, benefit the society, and shape the future we envision for Dubai and the world". The labels were introduced on Tuesday by the Dubai Centre for Artificial Intelligence, a division of the Dubai Future Foundation that was founded in 2016 to accelerate the adoption of new technology throughout the UAE. A total of six seal tiers – E, D, C, B, A and S – will be offered to the businesses that apply, "with S representing the highest impact on Dubai's AI economy". The new service is free of charge, and businesses can apply through the DCAI website. According to the DCAI, seals will be "awarded to companies with proven and verified activities in Dubai" falling under the categories of AI consulting, development, infrastructure, integration and ancillary services. Seals will be required by Dubai's government entities from sellers of AI services, and those who earn the seals will have a higher chance of winning government AI projects, the DCAI said. The introduction of the seals comes one month after Sheikh Hamdan announced a new classification system in Dubai to indicate when AI has been used in research and publications. The announcements come as AI technology is being developed around the world at a breakneck pace. In recent years, the UAE − the Arab world's second-biggest economy − has pursued becoming an AI front-runner, as it seeks to diversify its economy away from oil. The country's efforts have resulted in the establishment of start-ups, partnerships and investments from industry leaders. Dubai has seen a growing amount of recognition for its AI endeavours. According to a recent report from Counterpoint Research, Dubai ranks in the top five world cities in terms of the adoption of AI, beating San Francisco, which is widely considered to be the birthplace of the modern tech industry. The emirate has helped the country rise to the top in various studies for AI, with a new report from TRG Datacenters ranking the UAE and Saudi Arabia as among the top three artificial intelligence superpowers in the world, behind the US.
