“However, the ministry has not stopped developing its production capacity, but it is committed to the interests of Iraq, the Organization and the countries outside it,” he said. “Therefore, the reduction of 140,000 barrels has been committed to keeping prices from sliding into the abyss.”

Al-Ghadhban revealed that “the next few days will witness the establishment of three conferences, the first will be held on the 18th of this month, where will see the accession of Iraq for the first time in the Ministerial Committee to control the production of members of the Organization (OPEC) and its member states from outside, which is a positive for Iraq, Pointing out that in April next, the organization will also see a meeting between the oil ministers to assess compliance with the agreement to reduce production and will see the declaration of a pact of non-binding and voluntary cooperation between the Organization (OPEC) and countries outside of the Agreement on mechanisms for cooperation between these countries as an exchange of information and coordination roles and common points and the exchange of experiences, and then the usual ministerial meeting, which is usually held in the month of June.
