Thereafter the Anglo-Persian Company, owing to its far-seeing management, "will be able to supply the British Empire with its entire requirements of petrol, and by 1924 will be able to compete in all the world's markets against the Royal Dutch Shell and the Standard Oil. This explains the Royal Dutch Company's efforts to secure the Mesopotamian oilfields, whereby It hopes to force the Anglo-Persian Company to renew the existing contract.
