The Minister of Oil, Hayan Abdul Ghani, stated that this project is a strategic initiative and aligns with the government's plan to ensure the stability and flexibility of crude oil export operations from southern Iraq's ports. The pipeline will allow for crude oil exports from three locations: Basra Port, Khor al-Amaya Port, and a floating platform. It will also include two offshore platforms, one at Basra Oil Port and the other at Khor al-Amaya Port, as well as a floating buoy for crude oil export.
