约旦将恢复对伊拉克石油的进口

据彭博社9月7日报道，约旦将于本月恢复从其中东邻国伊拉克进口原油——此前由于疫情进口暂停。能源和矿产资源部天然气与石油司司长哈桑?希里(Hassan Hiari)表示，本月将重新开始每天进口约1万桶石油。他在电话采访中指出，由于疫情，整个8月份的运输都停止了。

约旦和伊拉克当局已同意将石油供应协议延长到11月，并将很快就在此协议基础上延长一年的事宜展开讨论。

约旦自身石油资源很少，根据2019年2月签署的初步协议，约旦每天从欧佩克成员国伊拉克进口1万桶石油，这足以满足该国7%的石油需求。

Jordan to Resume Iraqi Oil Imports Halted By Pandemic

Jordan will resume imports of crude oil from its Middle East neighbor Iraq this month after suspending shipments due to the coronavirus.

Imports of about 10,000 barrels a day will re-start this month, according to Hassan Hiari, director of the gas and oil department at the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources. Shipments halted for all of August as a result of the pandemic, he said in a phone interview.

Jordanian and Iraqi authorities have agreed to extend their oil-supply agreement through November and will soon discuss renewing it for an additional year beyond that, Hiari said.

Under an initial deal signed in February 2019, Jordan has imported 10,000 barrels daily from OPEC member Iraq, enough to meet 7% of its needs. Jordan has negligible oil resources of its own.
