On Dec. 3, SOMO Director General Falah Alamri told Iraq Oil Report the average selling price for federal Iraq’s crude exports in November was $41 per barrel. The original story pegged the average price at $40 per barrel. This story, including the higher total revenues, has been updated to reflect this new information.
