Lukoil peksti Iraagist välja

Lugejale meeldib ilmselt - nagu mullegi - lugeda, kuidas karu meejahil nõelata saab, nii et siin New York Timesi link.

West Qurna, mapped by Soviet geologists in the 1980s but mostly untapped, is one of a dozen or so supergiant oil fields in the world. They are known in the industry as “elephants,” fields so large they can tip the fortunes of companies or countries.
The field will produce one million barrels of oil a day after four to five years of development, according to both Iraqi oil officials and Lukoil; that is the approximate equivalent of the current output of the North Slope in Alaska.
