The source also revealed that a delegation of the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) will go to Baghdad tomorrow to discuss the technical aspects of the final agreement between Erbil and Baghdad on the issue of oil exportation.
The Iraqi Oil Ministry announced today that the Iraqi government insists on accelerating the consumption of oil exportation from the Kurdistan Region to the Ceyhan port in Turkey.
Kurdistan Region Prime Minister Masrour Barzani on March 25 released a statement that “our recent understandings with Baghdad have laid the groundwork for us to overcome the arbitration ruling today.”
At Baghdad’s request, Turkey halted the export of oil through its Ceyhan port on the Mediterranean on Saturday. The KRG was exporting nearly 400,000 bpd while Baghdad was sending 70,000 barrels a day through the pipeline. LINK
