According to Hart Energy's World Refining & Fuels Service forecast, global petroleum product demand in 2030 will grow by 27 million barrels a day and Iraqi oil production will be key to meeting this demand. Most analysts think that Iraqi oil production may eventually approach 12 million barrels a day, but the timeframe is very uncertain and deploying the necessary US$200+ billion investments, both physical and human, to produce and move Iraqi oil to markets will be a monumental undertaking. Although Iraqi government developed legal contracts that attracted International Oil Companies to invest in eases to produce oil, infrastructure investment appears to be lagging. As a country which has been in conflict for much of the past 25 years, Iraq faces an enormous challenge.
