中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社1月5日巴格达报道,伊拉克石油部长阿里?卢艾比周四(5日)在巴格达表示,伊拉克已经开始按照欧佩克的决定实施减少本国石油产量的措施。
卢艾比在一份声明中说,伊拉克重申其对欧佩克在维也纳举行的上次会议上作出的决定的承诺,从新的一年开始从本国的油田减少石油产量。
欧佩克在去年11月份同意从2017年1月起每天削减120万桶石油产量来支持油价。欧佩克第2大产油国伊拉克同意把本国的石油日产量削减20万桶至435.1万桶。
本国大部分收入依赖石油销售的伊拉克曾反对削减石油产量。伊拉克当时说该国需要收入来资助与在2014年已占领本国三分之一领土的伊斯兰国武装分子进行战斗。

Iraq Begins Reducing Oil Output In Keeping With OPEC Decision
Reuters
Thursday, January 05, 2017
BAGHDAD- Iraq has begun implementing measures to reduce national oil output in keeping with an OPEC decision, the oil minister said on Thursday.
"Iraq affirms its commitment to the OPEC decision which was taken in the last meeting in Vienna to reduce production from the country's fields from the start of the new year," Jabar Ali al-Luaibi said in a statement.
OPEC agreed in November to cut output by 1.2 million barrels per day from January 2017 to support prices. Iraq, OPEC's second-largest producer, agreed to reduce output by 200,000 bpd to 4.351 million bpd.
Reliant on oil sales for most of its income, Iraq had resisted production cuts, saying it needed revenue to fund a war against Islamic State militants who seized a third of the country's territory in 2014.
