Iraq and Turkey to Resume Northern Oil Exports After KRG Deal

TL;DR Summary
Iraq's federal government and the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) have reached an initial agreement to restart northern oil exports this week, and Baghdad will write to Turkey to request a resumption in pipeline flows. The resumption of pipeline flows from Iraq's semi-autonomous Kurdistan region will still need approval from Turkey. The halted flows only account for about 0.5% of global oil supply, but the stoppage still helped boost oil prices last week back to near $80/bbl.
