Kurdistan oil pipeline export capacity to double

A Reuters.com article by Humeyra Pamuk and Orhan Coskun from August 19, 2014 claims that "the capacity of Iraqi Kurdistan's independent oil pipeline will almost double to at least 200,000 barrels per day by the end of this month," citing industry sources and officials.

The pipeline runs to Turkey's Mediterranean export terminal at Ceyhan. According to the article, the Kurds have "managed to load seven export cargoes from Ceyhan," citing Turkish Energy Minister Taner Yildiz.
