…the country setting an all-time record in March at 16 mb/d. While the OECD is set to return to growth in 2Q23, its average 2023 increase of 350 kb/d pales in comparison with 1.9 mb/d in non-OECD gains.Significant outages in Iraq, Nigeria and Brazil were only partly offset by increases elsewhere, with global oil supply down by 230 kb/d to 101.1 mb/d in April.

Contracts are already in place.Will Iraq’s ambitions be realised? And what would the implications be for Iraq’s economy and for world oil markets?

From 2000 to 2023, Iraq experienced an average warming rate of 0.48 °C per decade, exceeding the global average of 0.37 °C. Temperatures are set to continue to rise, and are projected to rise by 2.5 °C in a low-emissions scenario and 5.6 °C in a high-emissions scenario by the end of the century compared with pre‑industrial times. The country's electricity system is already under significant strain with transmission losses ranking among the highest in the world (50-60%) and a significant divergence between nameplate and actual generation capacities, largely due to decades of conflict and war…
