Was Khalid Bin Mahfouz and/or his family involved in the Central Asia Gas Pipeline project?
Neither Nimir, its affiliates, its owners, nor Khalid Bin Mahfouz had any interest in this project. According to a press release issued by Unocal Corporation on October 27, 1997 ( www.unocal.com/uclnews/97news/102797a.htm ) Unocal, five other international companies, including Delta, and the government of Turkmenistan formed a consortium called “CentGas” to construct a pipeline linking Turkmenistan’s natural gas reserves to Pakistan.
