Baghdad (UPI) May 20, 2011
Iraq's energy chiefs are sticking to their ambitious plans to increase oil production five-fold to 12 million barrels per day by 2017 despite warnings by oil companies and industry pundits that a woeful lack of infrastructure makes it all a pipedream. However, according to the Financial Times and oil industry sources, senior Iraqi officials are now talking about lower target figures.
