Iraqi Business Council

The oil sector represents the backbone of the economic life in our country, Iraq, as it is the main source of the country’s budget and the basis upon which the country, for its current and future generations, depends.

The derived petroleum products also play a dangerous role in the course of the economy and development in all its forms.

The Iraqi oil sector suffers from great delays due to the difficult conditions that the country went through during the past three decades, and a large area of ​​Iraqi lands has not been explored so far, and the size of the oil and gas deposits in the country is unknown.

For the purpose of upgrading this sector and developing this industry, we review below some of the technical aspects that we think it is necessary to give the necessary attention and work to implement them in the near future.

Attachment is the text of the full study.

The idea of establishing the Iraqi Business Council is based on the common desire generated by a number of elites.
