Bomb cuts Iraqi oil pipeline deliveries to Turkey
AP
BAGHDAD -An Iraqi official says a bomb has damaged a pipeline exporting crude to Turkey, temporarily cutting deliveries.
Oil Ministry spokesman Assem Jihad said late Tuesday that an explosion targeting the pipeline forced a halt in deliveries to the Turkish port of Ceyhan late Saturday.
Jihad said technical teams are repairing the pipeline and hope to resume pumping within days.
A similar bombing on the same pipeline caused a nine-day cut in exports last month.
Oil sales account for about 95 percent of Iraq's total revenue.

"Iraq's Oct. oil exports drop due to attacks"......................................Oh boy, I can see it now. At least blaming Iraq would be a fresh new excuse to raise prices unlike the lame sh*t we have been hearing. Other than the scumbags on wall street, there is not one single fundamental reason in the world for oil to be at $77.75 right now. I guess now every time we hear of a roadside bomb in Iraq, oil will rise, even though this has been a constant occurence for the last 8 years. Hyenas have no scruples and so here we go again.
