Today, Saturday, an international arbitration court ruled that Iraq won the long-running case against Turkey over crude oil exports from the Kurdistan region.
And the Bloomberg news agency stated that "the International Court of Arbitration, affiliated with the International Chamber of Commerce, in Paris, ruled in favor of Iraq," noting that Baghdad accused Ankara of violating the oil pipeline transit agreement, signed in 1973, by allowing it to export crude oil from the regional government. Kurdistan, which is semi-autonomous, without his consent.
The agency stressed that "Turkey will not allow shipments of crude oil from the Kurdistan region of Iraq to leave the coastal port of Ceyhan without approval from the federal government in Baghdad."
 
 
Relations between Baghdad and Ankara have witnessed tension in recent years due to the water issue and the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), which is opposed to Turkey, which takes refuge in northern Iraq.
Several areas in the Kurdistan region of Iraq are witnessing repeated Turkish bombing, and Ankara justifies this by the need to combat the PKK, in relation to Turkey.
Turkey has recently launched several military operations inside Iraqi territory, against the Kurdish party militants, which Baghdad rejected, and considered it a violation of Iraqi sovereignty.

March 25 (Reuters) - Iraq halted 450,000 barrels per day (bpd) of crude exports from the semi-autonomous Kurdistan region and northern Kirkuk fields on Saturday, an oil official told Reuters, after the country won a longstanding arbitration case against Turkey.

In a case dating from 2014, Baghdad claimed that Turkey violated a joint agreement by allowing the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) to export oil through a pipeline to the Turkish port of Ceyhan. Baghdad deems KRG exports as illegal.

 

"Iraq was officially informed by the International Court of Arbitration final ruling on Thursday and it was in favour of Iraq," a senior oil ministry official said.

 

Turkey informed Iraq that it will respect the arbitration ruling, a source said.

Turkish shipping officials told Iraqi employees at Turkey's Ceyhan oil export hub that no ship will be allowed to load Kurdish crude without the approval of the Iraqi government, according to a document seen by Reuters.

 

Turkey subsequently halted the pumping of Iraqi crude from the pipeline that leads to Ceyhan, a separate document seen by Reuters showed.

On Saturday, Iraq stopped pumping oil through its side of the pipeline which runs from its northern Kirkuk oil fields, one of the officials told Reuters.

Iraq had been pumping 370,000 bpd of KRG crude and 75,000 bpd of federal crude through the pipeline before it was halted, according to a source familiar with pipeline operations.

"A delegation from the oil ministry will travel to Turkey soon to meet energy officials to agree on new mechanism to export Iraq's northern crude oil in line with the arbitration ruling," a second oil ministry official said.

ERBIL, Kurdistan Region - Iraq’s Ministry of Oil on Saturday welcomed a decision from an arbitration court in Paris that ruled in Baghdad’s favour against the Kurdistan Region’s independent crude oil exports through Turkey.

“The Ministry of Oil welcomes the final verdict in favour of Iraq which was issued by the International Chamber of Commerce in Paris last Thursday, March 23, 2023,” reads the statement

The arbitration court ruled that Turkey had breached a 1973 pipeline agreement between Iraq and Turkey obliges the Turkish government to abide by instructions issued by Iraq regarding the transport of crude oil exported from Iraq. In 2014, the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) began using the pipeline to send its crude to Turkey’s Ceyhan port, to the ire of Baghdad.

Under the court ruling, the Iraqi government, via the State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO), is the only party in charge of the management of export operations through Turkey’s Ceyhan port related to Iraqi oil, the ministry stated.

“The Ministry of Oil clarifies that it will discuss the mechanism of exporting Iraqi oil through Turkey’s Ceyhan port with the concerned entities in the [Kurdistan] region and the Turkish authorities… in order to guarantee the continuity of oil exports,” the ministry said.

According to a Reuters report, citing an unnamed senior Iraqi oil official, Iraq suspended exports of Kirkuk oil through the pipeline to Turkey. It also reported that Turkish authorities had informed Iraqi employees at the port that Ankara will no longer allow KRG’s crude to be loaded onto ships at Ceyhan port without permission from Baghdad. 

The KRG has not commented on the latest developments. 

The Kurdish government is heavily reliant on its revenues and an inability to sell its crude will severely impact its already struggling economy. The government has failed for years to pay its over a million civil servants on time and in full. 

Talks are ongoing between Erbil and Baghdad to draft an oil and gas law that addresses the concerns of both governments.

The oil ministry said that the court decision will not affect ties with Turkey.
