Kuwait likely to name new oil minister in reshuffle - sources
November 20, 2015
Kuwait is likely to name a new oil minister soon in a limited energy reshuffle of the Gulf OPEC member, sources familiar with the matter said on Thursday.
Four sources told Reuters that current oil minister Ali al-Omair, who has been facing opposition from within the oil sector, was likely to change but no official decision had yet been taken.
One source said that a new acting oil minister was expected to be named early next week.
Another source said some changes to the board of the state run oil companies might also happen.
