The Refining Industry in Iraq

Present Installed Refining Capacity


1- Salah al Din Complex – Baiji – 310 mb1/d
2- Doura Refinery – Baghdad – 210 mb1/d
3- Basrah Refinery – Basrah -140 mb1/d +
70mb1/d under construction
4- - 6 small refineries , 30mb1/d – 180 mb1/d
Kirkuk,Syniah-Baiji , Najaf,Samawa,Nasiriyah,Maisan
- 1 small refinery at Diwaniyah – 20 mb1/d
-1 = = = Kasak –Neinewah – 10 mb1/d
-1 = = = Haditha – Anbar – 16 mb1/d
Total- 886 mb1/d
+70 mba under construction
Operating Capacity
The average operating capacity is in the
540 – 600 mb1/d.
The short fall in refining capacity is due to
- Shortage in delivery of crude oil
- Frequent stoppages due to operational
problems
- Accumulation of fuel oil or Naphtha in
small refineries.
Main Projects in Existing Refineries
- 3 Ismerisation Units at Baiji , Doura &
Basrah – under construction.
-2 Gasoline Reformers at Doura & Basrah- Procurement &
Construction Phases.
- Fcc unit at Basrah –FEED phase.
- Fcc unit at Doura–FEED phase.
- Fcc unit at Baiji – Feasibility Completed.
-2Gas Oil Desulphurisation Units at Basrah & Doura-
Bidding Stage .

Ninewa Refinery

Ninewa Refinery is located in the oilfields of Qayarah &


Najma – Ninewa Governorate . It’s a project proposed
by an investor to process the ultra heavy crude of these
fields .The project was adopted by the Ministry since it
will resolve the problem of transportation of the said
crude. The timing of the project shall follow the time
schedule for the development of the fields. The project is
still in the initial stage. The preliminary capacity is
150mb/d . A power station is planned to utilize the heavy
products of the refinery.
Main Features of Law Number
64/2007 for Investment in Refineries

50 years at (FOB) price with discount of 5% provided that the
discount will be between 4 & 8 USD .
2- Ministry can adopt contracts in any internationally recognized form
of investment including participation with no more than 25% of the
investment .
3- The investor has the right to sell the products, at international prices
prevailing in the area, inside Iraq or to export the same outside
