Iraq produced 4.43 million barrels per day (bpd) of crude in December, unchanged from the previous month, data from state-owned marketer SOMO seen by Reuters showed on Tuesday.

According to the production figures, Iraq’s output was again in line with its quota under the OPEC+ agreement for December.

Higher exports from the semi-autonomous Kurdistan Region were offset by lower refinery runs, the data showed.
