{Baghdad} Euphrates News Interview: Wafaa Fatlawi .. Revealed Deputy Prime Minister for Energy, Hussein al-Shahristani said company the stricken Mobil will not participate in the licensing round, the fourth, and Maysan province can not have that prevent the oil minister from entering and described its decision which was issued recently by {blank}, stressing that for the Aihdd powers of the minister, oil or electricity, denying any interference On the subject of a regional delay in opening the port and floating with respect to the existence of cases of financial and administrative corruption project in Najaf, the capital of Islamic culture, students provide evidence indicate that cases of corruption.
In the subject company the stricken Mobil and non-participation in the licensing round next said al-Shahristani, in an interview with agency {Euphrates News} "This decision was made and announced by us because the company is eligible to participate in the licensing round, the fourth and even water project shared between the oil companies, which was the focus of company the stricken Mobil have reached the company by cutting out their participation in this work and will cost the Ministry of Oil consultant global specialist to oversee the implementation of this project as we had a successful experience in the development of ports of export oil co-operation using a consultant a foreign specialist and supervised the implementation of the project on time and within the ceiling of costs set forth. "
He added that "Building on this success and after the opening of the first port for export after (35) years we decided to use consultants global Mt_khassaan to oversee this project is very important to get to the roofs productivity that we aspire to it during this short period and that need to be a major effort because what we are doing in Iraq unprecedented on the oil industry of this size to work in the same place and during the short period of time so we need to experience consultants
And what facilities to enter the oil companies to invest in oil fields in Iraq, said al-Shahristani said that "companies contracting with the Ministry of Oil to develop oil fields in Iraq was experiencing difficulty in obtaining {visa is a kind} to the introduction of its cadres engineering for the implementation of these contracts and the entry procedures be delayed for months between procedures and the Ministry of Interior or Iraqi embassy in abroad, so it was a program of implementation lags because of the lack of sufficient numbers of engineers to those companies within the field. "
He added that "what happened to us in the truth of the implementation of these contracts Bmeidha the absence of the elements of engineering and technical fields are sufficient for the implementation of these projects are asked to grant {visa is a kind} for one year for these companies by the Ministry of Oil where the support needs of those companies for these cadres and professions and to prepare and required specifications In turn, demanding the Interior Ministry to approve the granting of visa is a kind of year for those working in these fields and the normal procedure. "
With regard to the company Snair of Iran in the implementation project of the chest species, and the problems existing with the al-Shahristani said that "the Iranian company was responsible for the installation of two units for the production of electric power station in Sadr has lagged in the implementation of this project for reasons Mtadh We hold the Iranian company the bulk of the causes of delay."
He added, "We have imposed fines Takhiria the Iranian company Snair according to what has been agreed in the contract, but I assure that the units are ready to work, and the lack of electricity in the city of al-Sadr does not mean failure of the project because the station-Sadr gas has nothing to do in Sadr City is linked to the national grid and distributed to all parts of Iraq and station is located to give Sadr City Sadr City may be called only gas station al-Sadr, this proportion of the site that created it, there is a station on the good things in station name goods does this mean that the station will be dedicated only have I think that there is a misunderstanding in the matter. "
On the subject of finding Iraq alternatives to the Strait of Hormuz indicates al-Shahristani said that "the Strait of Hormuz is going through it about a quarter of oil exporter in the world market and if the closure of the Straits for any reason, whether military operations or any other activities means that the entire world will be affected, not only Iraq if Iraq had outlets, many of the other countries do not have the possibility of exporting its oil from other outlets such as Kuwait and Qatar, the UAE, which in turn is trying to extend Nbubha across the Sea of Oman. "
He added that "Iraq has other outlets he has a port through the Mediterranean via Turkey and now Iraq is pumping oil through this pipeline by about {400-500} thousand barrels per day and we can increase pumping in the tube almost to double that number in addition to the existence of a new plan to extend the pipeline across Syria to the Mediterranean and we have to bring in consultants to start this project but the events in Syria may have influenced on this subject and we will wait to settle down the events in Syria and begin immediately to extend Balambeshrh pipeline through Syria to the Mediterranean. "
And al-Shahristani said "this does not compensate for the Strait of Hormuz oil because our production is the largest in the South as more than three-quarters of Iraq's oil product exported from the south and so the closure of the Straits will affect us and others and on the world market significantly."
And on the relationship of oil between the government and the Kurdistan region and the possibility of solving these problems through the enactment of the oil and gas shows al-Shahristani, "was supposed to approve oil and gas law and abide by it if admitted he did not observe him and continued to the region the conclusion of contracts without coordination, consultation and approval of the central government, the problems will still exist between the Government Center and the province but the country needs to approve the law of oil and gas. "
"The fact that the government made months before the draft law of oil and gas to the Parliament for review after the government had conducted some minor modifications, and we hope that Parliament enactment of this Act."
Shahristani said "I heard one of the members of the Commission on oil and energy say I am surprised at what the government wants this law, and the fact I am surprised at how not know what the government wants and the government sent a draft law of oil and gas in a clear and explicit and voting in the Council of Ministers and the site and this is a way to mislead the public opinion and especially from the Vice team work in the oil and energy, and he knows full well that the government project is now in the Committee and claims that he does not know what the government wants it. "
And that "there are a lot of brothers the Kurds in the region are sending me letters mention that we hope to be like you here in the province, but the subject that there are individuals in the government of the province crude behavior outside the constitutional framework and outside the powers provided for in the Iraqi laws in force and concluded contracts without the knowledge or participation or coordination with the Iraqi Oil Ministry and we said this is not true to their interpretation and their interpretation of the Constitution is incorrect, they say that there must be coordination .. Ok they have signed oil contracts in the province did not coordinate with the Ministry of Oil has been heard from someone that the Ministry of Oil did not coordinate with us in contracts concluded with the provinces .. and I wonder what the relationship with the region's oil contracts, a local government. "
He Shahristani said that "the contracts concluded by the oil ministry was with the Basra if coordination is with the governor of Basra with the Maysan and also be coordination with the Governor of Maysan and so on with the governor of Wasit and Dhi Qar, there is no relationship to the region as concluded by the Iraqi oil ministry outside the region, but there must be coordination between the Ministry of Oil and the Kurdistan Regional Government in the contracts concluded within the region only. "
He added that all contracts concluded by the provincial government came without consultation and coordination with the Ministry of oil and this is contrary to constitutional and clear even under the interpretation of these constitutional articles.
With regard to the lifting of the provincial council in Basra, a lawsuit over gas project Basra, says Shahristani, "- there was a misunderstanding and was removed after our recent meeting with officials and members of the province of Basra during the cabinet meeting which was held in the province of Basra has had a lack of information about this project and was one of the brothers Not everyone has said I have not seen these contracts it is certain that he had not seen it, because these contracts signed before taking over the responsibility, but the coordination with the officials before him. "
He said that "coordination and consultation exists between the government and the province, I remember that the first oil contract was concluded was one of the contracts signed at the time of the previous regime to develop the Ahdab He held a post in production and we want to be a decade of service, but the Chinese company that signed the contract at the time of the system the former insisting that he continue the contract as it is .. but in all the rounds in Baghdad and China, we ask the governor to come because of a province is the highest executive in the province any sense to have coordination with the governor not to be with the provincial council, which represents the point of legislative and regulatory Of course, consult with the conservatives on these issues. "
He said he can not for the province to decide its own policy of the country, but informed and consult with and coordinate with this is required either type of contracts are standard contracts fixed for all contracts we sign any service contracts can not be changed from one field to another field and from one province to another province to have this Ray and maintain certain that province has a different opinion and even the Ministry of Oil has not been able in spite of its staff to put the giant forms of contracts for Iraq Almairia achieved the highest possible benefit of the elders, but to consult specialists in the world. "
Shahristani said that "all the provinces want to develop oil fields in the diet first, because this will bring it petrodollar but Iraq as a national policy is not of interest to develop all the fields Iraq has {65} field finder and do not want development at once and we are currently working to develop {12} giant field in Iraq and this is an unprecedented effort in the oil industry and this effort a huge how to be our starting the development of {65} field, so we have the national priorities in the report of any field in any place with due regard to the geographical location of the province of the national wealth as well as offering opportunities for all provinces. "
He continued, "We have fields in the province of Basra, Maysan and Dhi Qar, Wasit, Baghdad and Nineveh, Diyala, Anbar, so we tried to accommodate more number of fields in the provinces either other provinces that have not remember now, we and our fields, where for example in the Middle Euphrates field of coral and the field of rump between Karbala, Babil, we put these fields in the licensing round, but the companies did not apply for these tours and we are keen to encourage companies to come and the evolution of these fields "..
And on the decision of the provincial council of Maysan prevent the entry of the oil minister to maintain indicates al-Shahristani, "- with due respect to all this nonsense because there is no province sees itself as the state and needs of the Iraqi citizen a visa to enter it, and this may not be at all eight oil minister, was in the Maysan province two days ago when will has been declared thus not taken a decision preventing the oil minister from entering the province of one of the members of the Council and confirm that the Provincial Council is the point of legislative and regulatory monitoring the performance of the executive power in the province and the limits of his powers control and legislation of laws in the province has nothing to do with politics of oil in Iraq, but coordination is only with the Governor when needed. "
And the extent of coordination between the Government and the Commission on oil and energy parliamentary shows al-Shahristani said there are meetings ongoing between us and the Parliamentary Committee for Energy and Oil In every meeting we send one of the deputies of energy for the participation of the meetings of the Energy Committee of Ministers, as well as there are calls from the Commission to the Minister of Oil and cadres of the ministry going, but unfortunately there are statements in The media people were far from our specialty Fidela remarks like a movie with everything and this is the method of bidding in Iraq to comment any person on any subject, as if this is the core competence .. So some of the statements is considered not express the viewpoint of the oil and gas, but according to my knowledge that there is enough communication between the Ministerial Committee on Oil and Energy Commission and the Ministry of Parliamentary oil. "
He denied Shahristani prevent general managers in the oil ministry of the statement to the media and restrict media office that "this is not true, I do not run the Department of the oil there is an oil minister in the Ministry of Oil and I'm not familiar with the measures taken within the ministry and absolutely did not stop anyone from giving his comments to staff in my office I did not stop them because they have the right permission when they want, but I hope to those who work in the office and the ministry that verified the authenticity of the information, because this Municipality when the authorized person to the media and reach the ears of the citizens and therefore Citizens believe and trust, he should be the people of this trust by giving correct information are either incorrect information is documented and serve as to mislead the people and this is claimed by myself and also works with me and does not work with me to stick to the credibility. "
With regard to the statements of some lawmakers who say you are the Minister of Oil and file oil does not come out for Anzark indicates al-Shahristani said, "This is not true never the contrary, we are lucky to have oil minister was rewarded and his long experience, the son of the oil is doing his job correctly, and said these words he came and apologized me and the minister of oil and said to me, so I told him I heard if you have not heard this to come to the oil minister and ask him is there a limit of permissions required for your business and individual Omarcetk we do not, I asked and I found the opposite Maglt.
He called anyone who tries to Altcol or permit statements like these to go and ask the Minister not only oil, but all that can ask the Department of Energy as Minister of Electricity and the Minister of Science and Technology Are there set your power and Mamrasatkm at work? And I assure they do not only find us support and support for Atakdhuh of correct decisions.
With regard to the statements indicated the existence of regional pressures have led to delay the opening of the port float between al-Shahristani said, "This speech was written by one writer in the journals of oil and because luck has not inappropriately been the opening of the port pontoon, three days after writing this article if this writer assigned to himself and went to the site work in the port and asked one of the workers in the companies in charge of the construction of this port or from the Ministry of Oil McCann suffered this setback put a bad impression in front of readers for us to what it says is like him does not matter much because we know very well what is happening in Iraq, but he must maintain its credibility in front of the read to him ".
With regard to the ability of Iraq's export of oil this year between al-Shahristani said "export capacity provided to balance the federal in 2012 is two million and {600} thousand barrels per day of {175} thousand barrels must be delivered from the oil produced in the province of Kurdistan and the rest are people of color and {425} thousand barrels is to produce the rest of the oil fields in the center and south, and is currently work underway to develop these fields as planned and will be InchAllah production and export covering these figures as we expect from the brothers in the province to hand over to the central government {175} thousand barrels per day.
And the power crisis between al-Shahristani said "the right of the Iraqi people to ask and I salute the patience and tolerance to the development of electricity and power, but the contracts signed with major international companies specialized in setting up the stations now total contracts signed with these companies the world over fifteen thousand megawatts."
"Now our production around seven thousand megawatts and the need for Iraq to electricity of about thirteen thousand megawatts that there is no shortage of six thousand megawatts of contracts signed but fifteen thousand megawatts, equivalent to double the letter from Iraq, he needs electrical energy.
He confirmed that there will be increases in energy for this summer in addition to the signing of other contracts by five thousand megawatts of the total contracts signed twenty thousand megawatt is enough for Iraq for many years to come, but even these large global corporations need between eight months to twenty-four months for completion of projects .
He said the projects are introduced in more than a year for contracts signed, is expected to enter service a significant number Beah them during the summer of 2012 and could even be before the summer of 2012 and there will be new stations to improve the reality of power in Iraq, especially as electricity minister has promised to Alan is trying to be born nine thousand megawatts by next summer, compared to six thousand to seven thousand megawatts in the last year and this particular will be a significant increase in addition we will take the same measures taken in the last year, providing the owners of generators textured kerosene free of charge and commit the owners of generators on Despite the improvement in operating hours to provide the national citizen breaks for a few hours until the entry that I mentioned stations into operation.
And on cultural affairs there are conversations confirm that there is the intention of moving towards abolition of the draft Najaf, the capital of Islamic culture, said al-Shahristani, "We decided to postpone the project Najaf, the capital of Islamic culture at the present time, not revoke it after a delay in the implementation of the project was announced in a statement that the draft Najaf, the capital of Islamic culture when the side of the infrastructure, which is a Paving streets and building networks of streams and the delivery of electric power and the restoration of the roads leading to the shrine-Sharif and to the airport and building a cultural center, which is in fact a chief and a teacher of culture and build a hotel suitable large and is now being constructed and there T_khassaat huge for this project , so it was our decision until after the postponement of the conference follow up the implementation of infrastructure positive contracts and complete Bmeidha do not accept any delay, regardless of the postponement of the conference and others, Vanajaf Najaf need to monuments and cultural venue for conferences so these things are going according to plan for it. "
He continued that "the vocabulary related to the Conference of the printing and distribution of books in addition to the conference were frozen by the decision to postpone the decision until the conference was held for the benefit of that there is no exchange of money now, and the creation of cultural issues and the conference did not decide on a particular contract.
He said al-Shahristani - I hear also hear you that there are signs of financial and administrative corruption in some contracts concerning the project Najaf, the capital of Islamic culture did not give me so far, any file corruption defined in a particular contract and the evidence in them and you've called in more than one occasion this, But on the occasion of my meeting with your agency and this is I have a good opportunity, I crave from which all citizens and has one piece of information on cases of corruption in these contracts and other offices in Najaf or in other provinces wish to provide me with if you are not on this and I'm not in charge of the integrity and I am not responsible for these files, but I speak as an administrator in the Iraqi state and citizen, I committed myself if I know the existence of a file corruption anywhere up to my knowledge I am I will make him hold a notice of the integrity that and Atalibha to investigate this matter and also will proclaim the ministry concerned about it mandated the Office of Inspector General investigated and the investigation in that subject.
