据普氏能源资讯6月5日维也纳报道,伊拉克石油部长阿卜杜勒·迈赫迪5日在维也纳表示,尽管巴格达日前把其2020年原油产量目标从此前的900万桶/天下调到了大约600万桶/天,伊拉克仍希望在今年年底前把本国的原油日出口量提高到330万桶。
迈赫迪是在维也纳欧佩克部长会议召开前发表上述讲话的。他还说,库尔德地区今年迄今为止还没有把北部原油日出口量提高到55万桶的水平。
上个月,伊拉克平均日出口314.5万原油,比4月份平均日增6.8万桶,这是伊拉克连续第2个月原油月出口量创历史新高。
迈赫迪说:“我认为我们的原油日出口量正在接近320万桶,也许在今年年底前我们将达到330万桶。”

Iraq capable of crude production of at least 6 million b/d by 2020
Vienna (Platts)--5Jun2015
Iraq hopes to boost its crude exports to 3.3 million b/d by the end of this year, oil minister Adel Abdul-Mahdi said Friday, though Baghdad has revised down its 2020 crude production target from a previous 9 million b/d to around 6 million b/d.
Speaking ahead of a meeting of OPEC ministers in Vienna, Abdul-Mahdi also said the Kurdistan region had yet to boost northern exports to the agreed level of 550,000 b/d in 2015.
Last month, Iraq's crude exports averaged 3.145 million b/d, up 68,000 b/d from April, marking a record high for the second consecutive month.
"I think we are approaching 3.2 [million b/d] and maybe by the end of the year we will hit 3.3 [million b/d]," Abdul-Mahdi said.
