Gas production resumes at Iraq’s facility after war disruption

Operations resumed on Monday at a major gas facility in Iraq’s Kurdish region, the Emirati company running the complex said, after more than a month of disruption due to the US-Iran war.


Dana Gas announced “the resumption of production of the Khor Mor gas facility in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, following a period of intermittent operations”, according to a statement published by the Abu Dhabi stock exchange.


On February 28 the UAE company suspended natural gas supplies from the complex as war broke out, authorities in Iraq’s autonomous Kurdistan region had said.


Kurdistan’s electricity and natural resources ministries said the decision was made “due to the extraordinary circumstances and ongoing events in the region, and to protect employees at the Khor Mor field”.


The Khor Mor complex, which supplies most of Kurdistan’s power stations, has been hit several times in recent years in attacks blamed on pro-Iran armed groups in Iraq.
