The KRG has announced that nearly 18 million barrels of oil were exported in May. That’s about 578,000 barrels of oil per day. The rare data was released by Kurdistan’s Ministry of Natural Resources on Thursday. The KRG usually almost never reports on its oil output and exports as it tends to hide such figures from the government in Baghdad, according to past allegations by the Iraqi central government.
