Ammon News - Jordan imported more than 1.6 million barrels of Iraqi oil during the first five months of 2025.

Iraq’s oil exports to Jordan in January, February, March, April, and May reached 1.64 million barrels, a 10.4 percent decline compared to the same period in 2024, when they totaled 1.84 million barrels, Iraq’s State Organization for Marketing of Oil (SOMO) revealed.

Oil exports to Jordan totaled 309,980 barrels in January, increased to 419,946 barrels in February, fell to 309,765 barrels in March, reached 299,819 barrels in April, and increased to 309,906 barrels in May.

Jordan and Iraq agreed in August 2023 to boost imports from 10,000 to 15,000 barrels per day, or 300,000 to 450,000 barrels per month, representing approximately 10 percent of Jordan’s crude oil consumption.

Iraqi oil exports saw minor variations in the first quarter of 2025, as the country adhered to prior production limitations set by OPEC+, particularly with the increase in export quantities during the first two months of the year.
