H.H. Sheikh Saud said: \u201cRas Al Khaimah and Zanzibar have enjoyed strong ties for several years and this Production Sharing Agreement is the culmination of the efforts of two friendly regions to cooperate for the benefit of their people.<\/p>\n

\u201cRAKGas being chosen by Zanzibar for its first foray into oil and gas exploration highlights the expertise of RAKGas and the depth of trust between us.\u201d<\/p>\n
