Iraq will continue to mostly use oil to meet energy demand until it develops more natural gas processing capacity and pipeline infrastructure. Federal Iraq refers to the political entity that is governed by the central government of Iraq in Baghdad.
About two-thirds of Iraq’s natural gas output is associated natural gas, which is a byproduct of oil production.45 Production cuts from Iraq’s oil fields in early 2020, following the OPEC+ agreement, lowered associated natural gas output as well, and natural gas output was around 260 billion cubic feet per year (Bcf/y).
