Dhieu said Sudapet is demanding the money as compensation for its efforts made in the development of the oil industry before South Sudan secession occurred in 2011.
However, Dhieu said South Sudan do not stand responsible for the compensation, explaining that the division of assets in the then Sudan ahead of the South secession was based on “territorial principle.”
“The division of assets was based on territorial principle that any asset that is in Sudan will belong to Sudan and any asset of Sudan that was in South Sudan will belong to South Sudan,” Dhieu told the press upon arrival from Addis Ababa yesterday.
Sudapet represents the Sudanese government as the oil company both on main and upper stream sectors. It was responsible on pipeline, refinery and other facilities.
South Sudan Chief Negotiator Pagan Amum said South Sudan has called for Sudan to stop Sudapet from demanding compensation from South Sudan as it will interfere with efforts South Sudan may has to campaign for Sudan pay its billion debts.
