Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) – The US Energy Information Administration (EIA) revealed on Monday that Iraq exported over four million barrels of oil to the United States in October 2025.

The EIA mentioned that Iraq’s crude oil exports to the United States during October rose to 4.49 million barrels compared to 4.2 million barrels in September 2025, Shafaq News reported.
