The Minister of Energy and Mining has the Global Witness report on differences in reported oil figures.
Sudan’s oil minister dismissed accusations by Global Witness about manipulations in the figures of oil revenue during the last few years.
Global Witness urged China and Japan to press Sudan for greater openness on oil revenues, since China's (CNPC) is the largest foreign oil major operating in Sudan and Japan is one of the few countries in the world that refines the highly acidic Sudan Dar oil blend.
The Government of Southern Sudan expressed the need to establish an audit to oil figures published by the Sudanese federal authorities, following the "Fuelling Mistrust" report by Global Witness.
North and South Sudan failed to agree on how to conduct a referendum on independence for the south on Sept. 10, ending with nine sticking points.
The Global Witness report, Fuelling Mistrust: the need for transparency in Sudan’s oil industry, is the first public analysis of Sudan’s oil figures. It documents how the oil figures published by the Government of National Unity in Khartoum are smaller than the equivalent figures published by the China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC), the operator of the oil blocks.(text version)
