Rosneft is seeking new partners for its Val Shatsky project in the Black Sea because Chevron is likely to leave the block, Eduard Khudainatov, the CEO of the Russian state-owned oil major, said Friday.

"We had some disagreements," said Khudainatov.

When asked whether Rosneft will develop the Val Shatsky block in the Black sea together with Chevron, Khudainatov said: "Obviously not."

"Chevron still wants to work with us on offshore projects. Now we're considering where we will work (together)," he said.
