The first unit of the 140,000 barrel per day (bpd) Karbala refinery, which will be the most sophisticated complex refinery in Iraq, is in the pre-commissioning stage and will start up in October, a month behind its most recent schedule.
The first phase will process 84,000 bpd, producing light ends like gasoline and diesel, which will help to alleviate the current shortage of transport fuels in Iraq.
