Oil has been produced at Rumaila for well over 60 years. A Technical Service Contract (TSC) was signed in 2009 to establish the Rumaila Operating Organisation (ROO) to transform the oilfield into a sustainable world-class oilfield for Iraq and its people. The TSC extends to 2034 and provides a strong foundation for the continued progress of Rumaila for the next 13 years.

The ROO partnership between Basra Oil Company (BOC) and Basra Energy Company (BECL) is an excellent example of how NOCs (national oil companies) can work alongside IOCs (international oil companies), retaining control and re-building capability within country to sustain their oil industry’s success for future generations.
