Iraq and Syria signed an agreement Friday to rebuild an oil pipeline that would provide an alternative to the Strait of Hormuz.
The pipeline stretches from Kirkuk in northern Iraq to Syria’s Mediterranean coast with a nameplate capacity of 700,000 barrels per day, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration. It has been closed since it was damaged during the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003.
Iraq, the second-largest oil producer in OPEC, has suffered heavily from the disruption to tanker traffic in the Strait of Hormuz during the U.S.-Iran war. Baghdad is reliant on its southern port city of Basra on the Persian Gulf due to limited pipeline options to bring its oil to global markets.
Not going to happen.
Even if, both regimes work together you can not run a pipeline these days when other regimes pay for destroying it.
Ukraine destroyed allied pipeline nordstream.
So you can not even trust the guys you are supporting.
And now operate a pipeline in syria where you have been financing terrorism for the last 10years.
