FT Alphaville » Gulf Keystone plots $200m fund raising

Earlier this week Gulf Keystone Petroleum – the next super major oil company – spelled out its plans for the future.

The highlights were a move to the main market of the London stock exchange from Aim and a plan to develop a pipeline capable of carrying 440,000 barrels a day north from its Shaikan field to the Kirkuk-Ceyhan export pipeline.

Chief executive Todd F Kozel said this would be funded by the sale of its 20 per cent stake in the Akri-Bijeel block, which is majority owned by partner MOL Hungarian Oil & Gas and could fetch as much as $300m-$350m.
