About this event
Join the EIC for a Business Breakfast in Dubai focused on Iraq’s evolving energy market, a key player in the global oil and gas landscape with increasing emphasis on diversification and infrastructure development.
As part of the EIC’s commitment to providing market intelligence across the GCC, this in-person event will offer exclusive updates and strategic insight from companies actively operating in Iraq. Delegates will gain a clearer understanding of the current business climate, investment opportunities, and local engagement strategies—directly from experts with first-hand experience.
With the world’s fifth-largest proven oil reserves, Iraq is targeting 6 million barrels per day in production capacity by 2027. Coupled with ambitions to eliminate gas flaring by 2030 and a renewable energy target of 12 GW of solar power, the country presents significant opportunities for companies across the energy value chain.
From power generation and refining to upstream ventures and supply chain localisation, Iraq offers a market full of potential for those looking to build long-term, sustainable operations.
