Oil Exports Continue to Rebound

By John Lee.

Iraqi oil exports rose for a second consecutive month in May, according to a report from AFP.

Exports of crude oil averaged 2.58 million bpd last month, up from April's 2.50 million bpd, raising $8.68 billion in revenues.

All of the shipments were made from southern export terminals, following persistent attacks on the Kirkuk to Ceyhan pipeline.
