Damascus, Feb. 9 (SANA) – A Syrian Petroleum Company delegation visited Hasakah oil fields on Monday as part of the process to bring the Rmeilan and Sweidiyeh fields back under state administration in line with the recent agreement with the SDF.
The delegation, accompanied by Hasakah’s Internal Security chief Marwan al‑Ali, met field managers and held a brief press conference addressing questions on future operations, fuel prices once production resumes, and whether part of the revenues could support the local area.
The team also toured al‑Awda field in rural Qamishli to assess conditions and hear from workers. Deputy CEO Walid al‑Youssef said several agreements are already in place to support the oil and gas sector and improve infrastructure in Rmeilan. He noted that the current staff will remain in their positions with salary increases.
The Company officials said the visit aimes to establish direct communication with technical teams as preparations begin for the handover. Hasakah Fields Director Dhiab Khalif described the visit as successful, noting that while most fields are in good condition, some require maintenance. Upcoming steps include agreeing on production levels and boosting output to improve energy supply.
The Syrian Petroleum Company recently began pumping raw gas from the Jibseh fields in Hasakah to the Furqlus gas plant in Homs, part of efforts to increase national production and support electricity generation.
