Synopsis. United States energy giant Connex is losing control of key Middle East oil fields in a kingdom ruled by the al-Subaai family. The emirate's foreign minister, Prince Nasir (Alexander Siddig) has granted natural gas drilling rights to a Chinese company, greatly upsetting the US oil industry and government.
The prince is about to do this because his brother has been named heir to the King's throne and oil export empire. Earlier in the movie, Matt Damon had visited the King's estate with his family when his son dies due to the incident at the pool. This allows Damon's character special access/attention among the King's family.
