"The huge ones will be run by...the oil majors and companies our size. No one company is going to get a field of 20 billion barrels or more, period." Occidental also sees an opportunity to run smaller fields in Iraq on its own. Iraq has identified eight of the giant fields, with a formal bidding process starting later this year and going through a good part of 2009, Occidental said.Market Pulse Stories are Rapid-fire, short news bursts on stocks and markets as they move.
