Iraq is interested in energy cooperation with Azerbaijan

Baku, September 27 - Neftegaz.RU. Azerbaijan´s President Ilham Aliyev has received Iraq´s Minister of Oil Ihsan Abdul Jabbar.
Azerbaijan is an important partner for Iraq in the energy sector.
Minister Jabbar expressed Iraq’s interest in the participation of more Azerbaijani companies in his country's economy.

The Iraqi minister highly appreciated the support provided by Azerbaijan to regulate the oil market.
Azerbaijani Energy Minister Parviz Shahbazov said:
  • The high level of relations between the 2 countries and joint work to regulate the world oil market are the basis for our future cooperation
  • Azerbaijan can consider prospects for expanding energy cooperation existing within the framework of the OPEC+ format and supplying the world market with crude oil and petroleum products of Iraqi origin through SOCAR

During the negotiations, the routes for the supply of Iraqi oil through Azerbaijan were not named, or information about this was not indicated in the messages.
