BASRA (The Thursday Times) — Iraq rozana dairh lakh barrel tak kacha tel sehra ke raste trucks par Syria ki Bahira-e-Room ki bandargah Baniyas bhej raha hai, jis se woh zameeni bar-amadi rasta phir se zinda ho gaya hai jo dahaiyon se bari had tak istemal nahin ho raha tha, kyunke Abnaye Hormuz se jahaz rani badastoor mutasir hai.
Basra Oil Company ke director general Bassem Abdul Karim ne bataya ke pichhle maah se Qatari tawanai group UCC Holding sarkari tel marketing idaray SOMO ke sath aik muahiday ke tehat Iraqi kacha tel Baniyas muntaqil kar raha hai, aur trucks ki dastiyabi ke lihaz se rozana aik lakh 20 hazar se dairh lakh barrel tel bheja ja raha hai.
Basra ke qareeb Tuba storage depot ke bahar saikron tanker tel bharne ke liye qataron mein khare hain. Depot ke manager Luay Jawad ne bataya ke 26 October ko muahida nafiz hone ke baad se UCC taqreeban 16 lakh barrel tel load kar chuka hai. Aik driver Ishaq Mohammed ne kaha, “Hum Tuba storage se kacha tel load kar ke Syria ke shehar Baniyas le jate hain. Tuba wapsi samet aik chakkar mein paanch din tak lag jate hain.”
Maghrib ki janib mehenga rasta
Is intezam se waqif afraad ke mutabiq yeh rasta Khaleej se jahazon ke zariye bar-amad ke muqable mein mehenga hai, lekin Syria mein barson ki jang khatam hone ke baad yeh phir se qabil-e-amal ho gaya hai. Muahiday se mutaliq aik dastavez ke mutabiq UCC 14 October se teen maah ke dauran 50 lakh se aik crore 40 lakh barrel bhari kacha tel 38 dollar fi barrel riyayat par load karne ka irada rakhta hai, jabke taqreeban 12 dollar fi barrel trucks aur Syria se transit par kharch hote hain.
Muahiday se waqif aik shakhs ke mutabiq UCC ke paas chhe hazar trucks ka bera hai jise is raste ke liye barha kar das hazar kiya ja raha hai, aur Baniyas se yeh kacha tel Greece, Italy, Turkiye aur Bahira-e-Room ke deegar mumalik ki refineries ko bheja jata hai. Is shakhs ka kehna tha ke trucks ki kami ki wajah se miqdar mein jald izafe ka imkan nahin.
OPEC ke sanwi zaraye ke mutabiq OPEC ke doosre sab se baray paidawari mulk Iraq ne October mein rozana taqreeban 45 lakh barrel tel nikala, jo September ke muqable mein taqreeban paanch lakh barrel zyada hai. Iraqi hukkam ke mutabiq October mein bar-amadat September ke 26 lakh 50 hazar barrel yomiya se barh kar taqreeban 35 lakh barrel yomiya ho gayin.
Pipeline ke mansoobay
Zaidi ke daftar ke mutabiq Wazir-e-azam Ali al-Zaidi aur Syria ke sadr Ahmad al-Sharaa ne haal hi mein Damascus mein Baniyas tak aisi pipeline ke zariye Iraqi tel ki bar-amad par baat ki jis ki gunjaish rozana 20 lakh barrel tak ho, taham lagat, technology ya waqt ki koi tafseel nahin di gayi. Zaidi ne Iraqiyon aur Syrians ko “do mulkon mein aik qaum” qarar diya.
Dono hukoomaton ne July mein maghribi Iraq ke Haditha se Baniyas tak pipeline ki bahali ke liye aik yaddasht par dastakhat kiye thay, aur tawaqqo hai ke Amriki company Chevron yeh kaam karegi. Baghdad ne do bar-amadi raston ke mutalay ki manzoori bhi di hai, aik Basra se Haditha hote hue Baniyas tak, aur doosra Basra se Haditha aur Kirkuk hote hue Turkiye ki bandargah Ceyhan tak. Hafte ke roz wizarat-e-tel ne Basra-Haditha-Baniyas pipeline par muzakirat ka jaiza liya.
Wazir-e-kharja Fuad Hussein ne aik interview mein kaha ke Iraq ne Amrika ke sath Oman ke qareeb aik bahri raste se Hormuz ke zariye tel bar-amad karne par mufahimat kar li hai, aur jang se mulk ko 60 arab dollar ka nuqsan ho chuka hai. Jang 28 February ko Iran par Amriki aur Israeli hamlon se shuru hui thi, aur us ke baad se Irani afwaj Tehran ki ijazat ke baghair abnaye se guzarne wale jahazon par hamle karti rahi hain.
