The oil tanker, Vallesina, has been booked to load 700,000 barrels of Iraqi Kurdistan crude oil at Türkiye's Ceyhan port on October 2, two industry sources said on Tuesday.

It will be the first tanker to load Iraqi Kurdistan crude following the resumption of flows from Iraq's semi-autonomous Kurdistan region to Türkiye on September 27, the sources said, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Iraq's oil ministry undersecretary Bassem Mohamed earlier said that the resumption of Kurdish oil flows will help raise the country's exports to nearly 3.6 million bpd in the coming days.

Iraq's production and export levels will remain within its OPEC quota of 4.2 million bpd, he said.

Iraq, the group's largest overproducer, was among states that submitted updated plans to OPEC in April to make further oil output cuts to compensate for pumping above agreed quotas.
