BAGHDAD: Iranian gas supplies to Iraq have resumed at a rate of five million cubic meters per day, the Iraqi electricity ministry said on Saturday, according to the state news agency.
Flows had been halted after Israel attacked Iran’s main gas field, South Pars, on Wednesday.
The current five million cubic meters is a fraction of the contracted 50 million cubic meters. Iraqi officials say volumes will increase gradually, but have provided neither a timeframe nor details of the damage to the Iranian gas facilities.
“Following the resumption of Iranian gas supplies, the national grid has recorded stability in production at 14,000 megawatts,” Ahmed Moussa, an electricity ministry spokesperson, was quoted as saying by the state news agency.
