ARBIL: Iraq’s largely autonomous Kurdistan region opened a new oil refinery yesterday, with a projected capacity of 40,000 barrels per day (bpd), the director of the group that built the refinery said. The refinery near the Kurdish capital Arbil is run by private Kurdish group Kar, which will process crude from the Khurmala Dome oilfield, its Director Baz Karim said. “The (Kurdistan Regional Government) will pay us for what the refinery produces,” Karim said.
