Gulf Keystone Temporarily Halts Shaikan Field Operations

Gulf Keystone Petroleum Ltd. (LSE: GKP) has temporarily suspended production at its Shaikan Field. This decision follows reports of nearby explosions at several oil fields over the past two days. As a precaution, the company has also implemented measures to safeguard its personnel, although its assets remain unaffected.

The firm emphasizes that it is actively monitoring the situation and will issue updates when necessary. The safety of staff and the integrity of operations are priorities as the company navigates this period of uncertainty.

Gulf Keystone, a key operator in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, continues to keep stakeholders informed via its Investor Relations head, Aaron Clark, and through its website.
