Iraq begins project to extend gas pipeline in Basra to feed power plants

3/14/2025

 

The Iraqi Ministry of Oil began, on Friday, a project to extend a gas pipeline in Basra Governorate, which supplies power plants.

The ministry said in a statement today that Deputy Prime Minister for Energy Affairs and Minister of Oil Hayan Abdul-Ghani Al-Sawad visited Khor Al-Zubair port today and supervised the project.

She stated that "the visit comes to follow up on the ongoing work inside Khor Al Zubair Port on the Adhraa platform, which is receiving the dry gas pipeline project supporting the power generation stations. "

The statement continued, "The Oil Projects Company's staff is making great efforts to bring the project to advanced stages and implement it within the specified timeframe and according to the approved engineering and technical specifications, given its importance in supplying power plants with gas."

It is noteworthy that the project extends from the Khor Al-Zubair docks to the Shatt Al-Arab Regulator, with a length of 40 km and a diameter of 42 knots. Work is proceeding at a rapid pace on the project, within the approved standards, and is being implemented by the national effort cadres of the Company for Oil Projects (SCOP).

On Sunday, March 9, the Iraqi Parliament's Oil and Gas Committee revealed the Iraqi government's intention to import Gulf gas instead of Iranian gas following the recent US sanctions. The committee announced a project being rapidly implemented in Basra, in the far south of the country.

The waiver granted by the United States to Iraq from sanctions imposed on Iran expired on Saturday, March 8, 2025. Consequently, the Baghdad government will not be able to import the Iranian gas needed to operate power plants across the country.

Committee spokesman Ali Shaddad told Shafaq News Agency, "The Ministry of Electricity's problem is that it has established stations in Iraqi governorates that rely solely on gas, while the stations in Basra are combined and operate on gas, crude oil, and black oil, which has contributed to the stability of the electrical system in the governorate."

He explained that "the Prime Minister is personally following up on the progress of the gas pipeline project from the floating platform in Basra on a daily basis," noting that "the Ministry of Oil began work on it about 30 days ago and it will be completed at high speed within 120 days."

He added that "the completion rate has exceeded 30% so far," stressing that "the project will contribute to transporting Gulf gas in quantities of up to 200 cubic meters."

The US State Department recently confirmed the end of exemptions that had allowed Iraq to purchase electricity from Iran, as part of the Trump administration's "maximum pressure" policy against Tehran.

Washington emphasized its refusal to provide any economic relief to Iran, stating that the goal is to end the Iranian nuclear threat, limit its missile program, and prevent its support for armed groups.

For his part, Farhad Alaaldin, the Prime Minister's advisor for foreign affairs, confirmed to Reuters that "the expiration of the waiver poses temporary operational challenges for Iraq."

Alaa El-Din added that "the government is actively working to find alternatives to sustain electricity supplies and mitigate any potential outages," noting that "enhancing energy security remains a national priority, and efforts to boost domestic production, improve grid efficiency, and invest in new technologies will continue at full capacity."

For many years, Iraq has relied on importing electricity and gas from Iran, especially during the peak summer months. This relies on ongoing US waivers, which are issued multiple times each year.

In October 2024, Iraq signed an agreement with Turkmenistan to import gas in quantities of up to 20 million cubic meters per day via the Iranian pipeline network, using a swap mechanism to facilitate transportation. However, the agreement has not yet begun due to technical issues, the Ministry of Electricity recently announced.

 You have to be careful on who you read and who you pay attention to because...an article comes out...you don't know who it is and what their agenda is.  You might get sidetracked. 

 But...we know Al-Sudani is at the top, al-Alaq is at the top, Saleh, advisor is at the top... there are a few others...Taking in the good and throwing out the bad...You need to be able to decipher on who's who and what's what...

Opinion pieces are tough because some of them are quality and some of the are well written and you have to take in the good, throw out the bad.

MNT GOAT: "RAMADAN REVIVES THE IRAQI DINAR AND OFFICIAL EXPECTATIONS OF A CONTINUED DECLINE IN THE DOLLAR", 15 MARCH

"RAMADAN REVIVES THE IRAQI DINAR AND OFFICIAL EXPECTATIONS OF A CONTINUED DECLINE IN THE DOLLAR"

 The exchange rate of the US dollar in the parallel market in Iraq declined significantly during the first and second weeks of Ramadan, recording 1,480 dinars per

dollar, or less than that, from 1,520 dinars before the beginning of the month. The decline is due to several factors, most notably the strict measures taken by the Central Bank of Iraq to control imports and electronic money transfers, in addition to the decline in

economic activities of the Iraqi citizen during the month of Ramadan.

"strict measures" My advice today is just stay focused and do not give up. Listen to reality not fake news. We have to watch this RV Saga all play out.

Choo-Choo! Enough said....

Their words not mine.....
