WesternZagros has 40% of Garmian.

WesternZagros Resources Ltd (CVE:WZR) has confirmed that operatorship of the Garmian block, in the Kurdistan region of Iraq, has now been transferred to Gazprom.

The change in operatorship does not involve any change of working interest in the production licence, the company said.
