Our production and development activities in Iraq are regulated by a technical service contract. Production comes from the Zubair field, while development relates to a further phase of the Zubair project ERP (Enhanced Redevelopment Plan) (Eni’s interest 41.56%), which will allow a production plateau level of 700 thousand barrels per day to be achieved. The programme also includes the use of associated gas for electricity generation. Production capacity and the main facilities to reach target production have already been installed. The reserves in the field will be progressively put into production with the drilling of additional production wells over the coming years. The production capacity and main facilities to treat the production plateau target have already been installed; the field reserves will be progressively put into production by drilling additional productive wells over the next few years.
Products and Services

We create energy
Every day we work towards creating development and stability in Iraq, supporting the country by improving the services of the health system of the city of Basra to allow it to reach international standards. We also launched some initiatives in support of schooling in the area, inaugurating the Al Burjesia High School which will host up to 900 students and in 2020 we started up activities for the construction of a new school in Zubair City. Finally, in 2021 to meet Basra's high energy demand, the national company and Eni expanded the Permanent Power Generation Plant project (which was originally intended to meet the electricity needs of the Zubair plant), with the construction of a new line to connect to the Iraqi national grid, transferring 420 MW and reaching 2.4 million people. The PPG has a total capacity of 500 MW, with a possible extension to 750 MW. The initiative also promotes capacity building and job creation.
The development of the Iraqi health service
In 2017, we launched initiatives to support the Health Directorate of the Governorate of Basra. Among the objectives of the project are the development of specialist services, in particular cancer diagnostics, and the improvement of infrastructures for the care and training of staff.
