Oil Production Up 15% ???
When I see reporting like this from the media and looking at what’s happening on the ground especially in Basrah, you have to step back and analyze the report. We already know the “Oil Mafia” control the oil in the south and are smuggling the oil and funneling the proceeds for their illegal activities.
How do we know the report is true especially coming from possible smugglers and corrupt officials and oil company employee’s who possibly could be involved in the smuggling operation.
If I knew in the future I was going to make concessions to the central bank of Baghdad in regards to the oil assets in the south inflating or deflating the production figures probably wouldn’t be a bad idea. How would central bank of Baghdad ever know what the true production level was?
I could be wrong will just have to wait and see.
