Publisher's Synopsis
Farouk Al-Kasim has been called the "Iraqi who saved Norway from oil", and the "greatest value creator in Norway ever." (Financial Times). When he was 16 years old, he was sent to London to study geology. He met a girl from Norway, and they married. Under dramatic circumstances the family had to run away from Iraq, and Farouk became the key man in Norwegian oil administration. He has travelled worldwide to encourage other countries to secure oil and gas for the benefit of the country and its people.
