Local sources in eastern Syria reveals, on Monday, that 15 Egyptian and Saudi engineers have reached Al Omar oil field, which is under the control of the Kurdish units in Deir Ezor province.
The sources added that a group of engineers and technologists arrived in the region last Friday, on US helicopters.
Sources explained that the group’s mission is to rehabilitate the field, increase its oil production, and train its workers.
