The Iraqi Federal Government Iraq, the holder of the world’s third-largest oil reserves, has opened nearly 90% of its reserves to international oil companies for development. Iraq with at least 115 billion barrels in reserves, plans to add 4 million to 4.5 million barrels a day within four to six years to help build its infrastructure and develop its economy.

“ I’m confident that this will be an important year for Iraq’s oil industry, as production and export continues to rise significantly. The resulting increase in revenues will underpin the acceleration of the country’s economic reconstruction programmme. ”
