DUBAI- A gas pipeline linking the Khafji export terminal, in the Kuwaiti-Saudi neutral zone, to Kuwait has entered operations, the state-run Kuwait News Agency reported on Wednesday.
The agency cited a statement from the Kuwait Gulf Oil Company which represents the interests of Kuwait in the neutral zone.
The 100-km (62 miles) gas pipeline, the first to link the neutral zone and Kuwait, will supply the al-Zour power plant, it said.
