LONDON: Exports of Iraqi crude oil through the Kirkuk-Ceyhan pipeline to Turkey have still not resumed following a bomb blast on Monday night, a shipping source said on Friday.
An Iraqi oil ministry spokesman had said repairs to the pipeline would be completed by Thursday afternoon.
Six tankers were at anchor waiting to berth on Friday and some are expected to wait up to 13 days before they can load oil.
The pipeline transports Iraq's smaller crude stream, Kirkuk, to the Turkish port of Ceyhan in the Mediterranean. (Reuters)
