  • Iraq total oil exports, should stand at an average of 3.4 million barrels per day in September
  • Warned any future lockdowns or a decrease in oil prices could affect any decisions at next month’s meeting.

OPEC and its allies will try to keep oil prices at $70 per barrel in the first quarter of 2022, Iraq’s oil minister said, adding the group is expected to stick to its current production accord when it will meet in October “if prices remain stable.”

Iraq total oil exports, including those of the Kurdistan region in the north of the country, should stand at an average of 3.4 million barrels per day in September, the minister, Ihsan Abdul Jabbar, told a news conference in Baghdad on Sunday. 

However, he warned future lockdowns or a decrease in oil prices could affect any decisions at next month’s meeting.
