Speaking at a conference on 21 Nov, Barzani said crude exports from N. Iraq to Turkey's Ceyhan port could only resume once the federal Iraqi government in Baghdad agreed to pay international oil companies (IOCs) operating in Iraqi Kurdistan in line with their existing contracts.

#Baghdad is understood to want to bring these PSCs more in line with its own contracts, which are seen as far less attractive to IOCs.
