Iraq’s oil ministry says that Schlumberger, Baker Hughes and Halliburton will not apply for new energy projects in Iraq’s Kurdistan region after a federal supreme court ruling.

In February 2022 Iraq’s federal supreme court deemed an oil and gas law regulating the industry in Kurdistan to be unconstitutional and demanded that Kurdish authorities hand over crude supplies.
