Rising Kurdistan Oil Production Gives Iraq OPEC Headache: MEES
OIL
International oil companies in Kurdistan have steadily adapted to the ‘new normal’ and boosted sales within the region, according to MEES.
- Output has now reached 0.3m b/d, furthering the pressure on Iraq to reduce production in the south to comply with its OPEC+ commitments.
- Kurdistan’s crude production continues to rebound from last year’s export pipeline closure as IOC’s consolidate local sales.
- Although sales are cheaper than international market rates, companies can still make profits under this system.
