Saudi injects billions in Asia to draw clients for its oil
(MENAFN) With crude prices deteriorating by more than half in the previous two years, the Saudis and other oil-rich nations are basically fighting to lock in and guarantee customers, according to the latest reports.

As Iran gets ready to boost its own exports, the Saudis prepare for a dramatic increase in its commitment to the region, seeking billions of dollars of projects and schemes in Asian countries from Indonesia to Vietnam.
