Kuwait plans to start building the world's largest petroleum research centre by the end of the year, the oil ministry said on Twitter on Wednesday.
The Middle East Economic Digest said the project had stalled because of budget pressure, estimating its cost at $120 million.
The centre will be built in the city of Al Ahmadi. It will comprise 28 technological laboratories and hire more than 600 employees, the ministry said on Twitter.
It will provide solutions to problems involved in the production and refining of heavy crude, as well as improve production methods and refining techniques at local and international levels, the ministry said.
