Middle East and North Africa

In the 1920s, the Compagnie Française des Pétroles (CFP) was founded. It was the first serious competitor to the major Anglo-Saxon oil and gas production companies and the forebearer of TotalEnergies. It was in the Middle East that CFP carried out its first exploration and production operations with Iraq, then Qatar, Oman, the United Arab Emirates, Iran, Algeria, and Libya. Starting in the 1980s, Total also set up operations in Yemen, Syria, and Kuwait and more recently Cyprus and Lebanon. The Company then strengthened its relations with the host countries and the national oil companies.
