circling the wagons: Korean consortium loses rights to Russia oilfield
SEOUL (AFP) - A South Korean-Russian consortium has lost its licence to explore and develop a huge offshore oilfield in Russia's west Kamchatka, a state petroleum company said Wednesday.

The Korea National Oil Corp (KNOC) said the Russian government last month rejected a request to extend a five-year licence granted to the consortium led by KNOC and Russia's state-run Rosneft.
