Iraq resumes pumping Kirkuk oil to Turkey
A source at the shipping industry said last Thursday that Iraq resumed pumping Kirkuk crude oil at the rate of about 72 thousand barrels a day through the northern pipeline to Turkey. The stocks of Iraqi crude in the Turkish port of Ceyhan on the Mediterranean hit six million barrels. However, the source did not specify when the pumping was resumed through the pipeline. The pumping of oil was stopped on Sunday because the storage tanks were full.
