Iraq asks BP to study developing Kirkuk oilfields

Iraq asks BP to study developing Kirkuk oilfieldsIraq has asked British energy giant BP to help bolster production at oilfields recaptured from the Kurds in northern Kirkuk province, Oil Minister Jabbar al-Luaybi said Sunday. Luaybi told AFP he wanted to discuss a request for BP to draft a study on increasing output when the company's boss visits Kirkuk in the coming days. BP is the biggest foreign player in Iraq's oil sector, running the Rumaila field in the south of the country which produces 1.5 million barrels per day (bpd) -- almost a third of Iraq's output.
