If I recall correctly it was the loading onto the ships which was the issue.

Ok guys looking to use the bigger brain here to get the answer. The ICC ruling that stopped the exports was around the 1973 agreement for the pipeline and it said only Iraqi could manage that. So for that mean the Kurds can sell their oil via say trucking or would that need to get injected into the pipeline at some point anyway.

I guess i am trying to understand, can the Kurds sell their oil independently it’s just they don’t have a pipeline to do that, hence the problems?

Ultimate control of "Greater Shaikan"--potentially one of the world's largest Oil resources may have something to do with it imo.

Iraq Pariament 2nd Legislative Session will end 9th May 2024. The Budget and its Schedules need to be submitted by that date in order to qualify for a time extension of up to 1 month for discussion/voting by Iraqi Council Reps.; otherwise, no time extension.

Everything about this "situation" is dodgy .Including the ICG response. IMO

[fairenough11] 24/4/2024 05:57

The "TIMINGS" of the "NEWS RELEASES" were impeccable imo.
Bad actors.

Probably the case Eddie. 4 days ago they were waiting for Sudanis return to enable modification to the budget. https://www.kurdistan24.net/en/story/34635-Iraq-preparing-to-amend-its-budget-law

Hopefully.....the pressure is on them now.

[eddie47] 24/4/2024 05:25

Highlander. Maybe it has not yet entered into force as they are waiting for the budget amendment. Fingers crossed.

Morgan Stanley on Friday raised its outlook for oil prices on the back of a "triple deficit" for the commodity — low inventories, low spare capacity, and low investment.

A note from the bank's commodities strategist and head of European oils, Martijn Rats, said it now sees Brent crude, oil's international benchmark, jumping to $100 per barrel by the third quarter of this year, updating its $90 per barrel forecast published on January 6.

Apparently an agreement has been reached.

Delegation of #KRG and #Iraqi government reached an agreement, but it did not enter into force. There is no excuse for not resuming #oil exports.

Disagree, I feel the Kurds will be energised from this and will be determined now more than ever to go it alone, will be a long drawn affair, not all will survive

Many of the IOCs operating down South regard the Kurdish Area almost as another country - they see very few carryovers between what Baghdad decides to do about the problematic KRI "foster children" (although foisted children might be a better expression) and their own lucrative agreements.
I doubt very much that investment in Iraq by the western companies mentioned in the MOUs will be affected.
As for the US cutting off Iraq, whether financially or militarily, that's not going to happen as the US will want to continue use IR as a buffer state and the Kurds are, relatively speaking, not all that important any more; their time has come and gone.
At the end of the day the Barzani hegemony will wither, IR Federalism as we are tempted to understand it will be greatly curtailed and the KRI will be fully re-absorbed into Iraq.
The well-rewarded Kurdish Lobby in the US & UK will huff and puff, as will the honourable judges here and there, but the world is moving on; sovereign is sovereign.
It will be painful - for some, rewarding for others and of no consequence for many.

[fairenough11] 23/4/2024 19:04

The thieves of Baghdad could also get rather thirsty come mid summer.It'll get sorted imo and THEY probably all already know it.

[shortsqueezer] 23/4/2024 18:28

Absolutely Eddie

If Iraq fails to honour the IOC contracts Sudani can kiss goodbye to his international investment initiative. All his MoUs will just be worthless pieces of paper. There is a lot of pressure for Sudani to make this work, including the prevention of the break up of Iraq.

Good of you to stop buy Adam, enjoy the dunny.
