Iraqi Oil Report (1 April 2021)

 

Iraq's Parliament passed a 2021 budget Wednesday that preserves a recent currency devaluation, projects a record-setting deficit, and outlines a vague but hopeful compromise for oil and revenue cooperation between Baghdad and Erbil.

The budget anticipates 81.17 trillion Iraqi dinars ($55.98 billion) in federal oil revenues this year, based on a projection that the government will sell an average of 3.25 million bpd of oil * at $45 per barrel ** — including 250,000 bpd from the semi-autonomous Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG), according to multiple MPs, a senior official involved in negotiating the budget, and copies of the draft law obtained by Iraq Oil Report.
