Kuwaiti, Saudi officials discuss resuming Neutral Zone oil production: KUNA - Reuters:

OPEC members Saudi Arabia and Kuwait have discussed resuming oil production in jointly operated fields in the Saudi–Kuwaiti Neutral Zone, Kuwaiti state news agency KUNA said on Wednesday.

Saudi Arabia’s minister of state for energy affairs visited Kuwait to “continue to discuss and cooperate on the resumption of oil production in the southern [Neutral Zone] after settling all required technical issues from both sides,” KUNA said, quoting a Kuwaiti government spokesman.

The Saudi–Kuwaiti Neutral Zone, or Divided Zone, is an area of 5,770 square km between the two countries’ borders that was left undefined when the border was established in 1922.
