Iraq is significantly increasing its gas production with the successful implementation of a recovery project at the Halfaya oil field in Maysan province. Deputy Oil Minister Nasir Aziz announced Monday that the field is now processing 190 million cubic feet of associated gas daily. This development represents a crucial step towards utilizing previously flared gas, contributing to both domestic energy needs and potential export revenue. The recovered gas is being processed and utilized, reducing environmental impact from flaring. This initiative underscores Iraq’s commitment to maximizing the value of its oil resources, including associated gas. Experts believe this increased recovery will play a vital role in the country’s energy independence and economic diversification. Further details regarding the specifics of the processing and utilization of the gas were not immediately available.
