India being upcoming major economy with 1.3 billion populations has unsatiating and growing appetite for oil . Expanding middle class and rapid infrastructure development in India is opening up new possibilities and opportunities for countries solely dependent on oil revenues. These all are contributing India to become a fertile ground for global Investment due to huge market potential apart from being a vibrant and the largest stable democracy in the World. India's young educated & highly skilled and cheaper workforce is acting as catalyst for the growth of its economy. India being a super power in IT and IT enabled services in the World had already attracted Tech Giants in the country.

Marina Schwarz + 1,576 February 21, 2019 It's so right one wonders why it took them so long to make it. But I'd wait until they actually dispense the money before rejoicing. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oil Patch Press + 5 MB February 21, 2019 India is making noises that it will disregard U.S. sanctions and continue to buy oil from Iran. This "splash" by Saudia Arabia might be an attempt to curb India's desire to buck the U.S. sanctions. A lot of countries have a lot on the line (trade-wise) with India, for India to be playing tiddly-winks with U.S. sanctions because of cheap oil. If India goes rogue, any country doing business with India could risk sanctions against them also. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marina Schwarz + 1,576 February 22, 2019 Oh, that's certainly one of the reasons for the splash. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Foote + 1,135 JF February 22, 2019 It's a smart play for the Kingdom in securing customers, it's a move Iran can't afford to make, but it hardly diversifies the KSA out of the oil and gas business and I struggle to see how it adds to efforts to employ Saudis in Saudi Arabia. It will be interesting to see if it's paid out of retained earnings, or borrowed money, or the Kingdom's investment fund. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
