| 2019-08-17 |
| [ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Oil supply to the al-Haritha electric power station in southern Iraq resumed on Thursday after repairs to a pipeline damaged by a kaboom, the oil ministry said on Friday. Pumping had stopped on Wednesday, after a kaboom on a dry gas pipeline, the ministry said in a statement. Oil ministry officials said on Wednesday the earth-shattering kaboom was caused by scorching summer heat. Most oil exports from Iraq, OPEC’s second-largest producer, come from Basra, in southern Iraq. |
