The weekly program: Oil and gas dedicated a special episode about Kurdistan in Iraq. The program shed lights on the oil sector, which is a pillar of the province's economy, after the government enacted a law to regulate this sector in 2007.
Al Arabiya camera passed on the three largest oil fields in the region: Toki, Taq Taq and Khurmala which represent together more than 90% of the oil production in the region, 225 thousand barrels per day.
The episode included interviews with international and local oil companies' officials, operating in Kurdistan, to explain their current and future plans.
The program inquired about the opinions of oil companies on the Interim Agreement between Erbil and Baghdad which was signed at the beginning of the year and which revived the flow of oil exports from the region, after it stopped in 2009.
The discussion focuses on the main challenges facing the oil sector in the region, particularly the disagreement between Erbil and Baghdad over the sharing of the revenues from oil exports, while everybody is eagerly waiting for the federal law regulating the oil and gas sector in Iraq, expected to be promulgated in the end of 2011.
