  • Engines from Liebherr for Successful Kamaz Racing Trucks in Dakar Rally
    Press information Engines from Liebherr for successful Kamaz racing trucks in Dakar rally Bulle, FR (Switzerland) March 31, 2014 – Among the 75 trucks that took up the starting position in January 2014 for the Dakar rally, five were trucks from Kamaz Master, the motor sport team from the Russian company Kamaz OJSC. Three of the trucks were equipped with 8-cylinder engines from Liebherr. In the overall ranking, the trucks gained third and fifth place. The third truck had to retire during the second stage of the race due to an accident on difficult terrain. In mid- March 2014, one of the trucks used in the rally and its driver, Eduard Nikolaev, came to visit Liebherr Machines Bulle SA where the engines were developed and manufactured. Kamaz in Dakar rally The Dakar rally, or better known simply as The Dakar, is one of the toughest challenges for drivers, vehicles and their components. Since 2009, for reasons of safety, its venue is no longer North Africa but Latin America instead. In 2014, a total of 204 vehicles crossed the finishing line in Valparaíso, Chile, in the motorcycle, quad, car and truck categories – which equates to only about 47% of all of the vehicles that started. In the trucks category, 71 vehicles started from Rosario in Argentina. Of that number, 50 reached the finish line after an overall distance of about 9370 km, spread over 13 stages. The Kamaz Master team, formed 25 years ago, has dominated the event in the truck sector for many years and has won a total of twelve times since 1996.

  • Kuwait and Saudi Arabia Sign Deal to Resume Joint Oil Output
    RABIA ALTHANI 28, 1441 AH WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 25, 2019 28 Pages Max 23º Min 07º 150 Fils Established 1961 ISSUE NO: 18019 The First Daily in the Arabian Gulf www.kuwaittimes.net Kuwait and Saudi Arabia sign deal to resume joint oil output Agreement also inked on demarcation of land and maritime borders By Faten Omar and Agencies KUWAIT: Saudi Arabia and Kuwait signed agreements yesterday to resume pumping at two major oilfields in a shared neutral zone shut for five years due to a bilateral disagreement. Kuwaiti Foreign Minister Sheikh Ahmad Nasser Al-Mohammad Al-Sabah and Saudi Minister of Energy Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman Al-Saud inked the deals. Kuwaiti Minister of Oil and Minister of Electricity and Water Khaled Al-Fadhel and the Saudi minister of energy signed a memo of understanding. Kuwait and Saudi Arabia’s collective histories are dot- ted with instances of “exemplary cooperation”, Fadhel said during a lavish ceremony held at Wafra Joint Operations later yesterday. Production from the Khafji and Wafra fields will not affect the two countries’ OPEC commitments to reduce oil output, added the minister, expressing hope that resumed production would pay dividends for the Kuwaiti and Saudi economies. Prince Abdulaziz said talks between his country and Kuwait on the neutral zone in the past few years focused more on “harmony” rather than striking a deal. On the sidelines of the deal’s signing ceremony, the Saudi minis- ter commended the brotherly relationship between HH KUWAIT: Kuwaiti Foreign Minister Sheikh Ahmed Nasser Al-Mohamed Al-Sabah KUWAIT: HH the Amir Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah receives yesterday at the Amir of Kuwait Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al- exchanges documents with Saudi Oil Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman during Bayan Palace Waleed Musaed Al-Tabtabaei (left) and Mohammad Nayef Al-Dosari and Sabah and Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz, describing an official ceremony at the Kuwaiti Foreign Ministry headquarters in Kuwait City their families, who thanked him for granting them Amiri pardons.
