Iraq has reached understandings with US to allow oil exports through Hormuz, minister says
Nov 8 (Reuters) - Iraq has reached understandings with the United States to allow Iraqi oil exports through the Strait of Hormuz via a shipping lane near Oman, Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein said in an interview with Al Jazeera.
He said Iraq's losses from the Iran war and disruptions to oil exports had reached $60 billion.
Iraq's oil exports recovered in October after a sharp drop the previous month. Exports rose to about 3.5 million barrels per day from 2.65 million bpd in September, according to Iraqi energy officials.
