Iraq seeks bids from international companies for oil project

The director of "Basra Oil" did not disclose the companies that have advanced bids to the Iraqi government

 

 22 March 2018 04:43 PM

Directly said Director General of Iraq 's Basra oil company, said that Baghdad is seeking bids from six international companies for a project worth $ 4 billion (4.8 trillion dinars) for the injection of sea water in the south fields to extract more Iraqi oil reserves fields of the Arabian Gulf.

At the end of February, an official in the Iraqi oil sector announced the readiness of the Basra Oil Company to introduce a water injection project necessary to increase the capacity of oil production in a bid if the ongoing talks with ExxonMobil failed .

In mid-November , the official spokesman of the Iraqi Ministry of Oil, that the project to develop oil fields "integrated South" in the province of Basra, including the construction of housing complexes and development services, as well as the project of water injection and laying of pipelines, stressing that " self-financing" and will generate high revenues .

Ihsan Abdul-Jabbar said in statements to Bloomberg that Iraq has already received offers from 5 companies interested in building treatment platforms and increase the production of Majnoon oil field in the south to 450 thousand barrels per day.

Abdul-Jabbar did not disclose the companies that have advanced bids to the Iraqi government, represented in the Iraqi Oil Ministry.

"The ministry is considering an offer by a Dutch company to build an industrial island off the coast of Basra on the southern Gulf, where it is building a storage platform with a capacity of 10 million barrels, as well as a plant to export oil with a capacity of two million barrels per day.

"The new projects aim to provide an adequate safe area for oil tankers off the coast of Iraq during bad weather," Abdul Jabbar said.

He noted that the industrial island project will be provided with storage and shipping facilities for crude oil, which will contribute to enhancing Iraq's export capabilities and will ensure that quantities are absorbed in case of increased production.

Abdul-Jabbar said that the state-owned Basra oil aims to raise production to 3.5 million barrels per day by the end of 2018, compared to 3.15 million barrels a day at the moment.

He added that the company also plans to pump 4.5 million barrels per day in the horizon of 2022, with gains in all areas of the company at the headquarters of its presence in the southern province of Basra.

The director of Iraq's Basra Oil Company discussed the state's efforts to boost oil sales from the southern regions, which include huge fields such as Majnoon and Rumaila , to offset production losses in the northern fields, which have fluctuated since the outbreak of the referendum crisis in Kurdistan last September.

In October, Baghdad raised its oil exports from the southern Basra region 200,000 barrels per day, and exports of southern oil fields as a whole by 3.45 million barrels per day , to compensate for the shortage of fields in northern Kirkuk.

Iraqi Oil Minister Jabbar al-Luaibi also announced that the export capacity of the southern ports will increase to 4.6 million barrels per day after increasing export and storage capacity and export port development projects .

The Iraqi oil minister called on Iraq to develop an urgent plan to repair and rehabilitate the oil pipeline from the Kirkuk fields to the Turkish port of Ceyhan , through the governorates of Salah al-Din and Nineveh, to divert part of the Kirkuk-Ceyhan route .
