Commissioning has begun at Technip Energies’ Karbala refinery PMC project in Iraq.

Located approximately 100 km (62 miles) from Baghdad, Iraq, Karbala is Iraq’s first new refinery in decades and is the first refinery in Iraq to meet Euro 5 fuel standards, which will greatly reduce emissions. The project is moving ahead and is scheduled to reach its full capacity of 140,000 barrels per day by the end of July.
