Iraq has the fourth-largest oil reserves in the world. A 2012 assessment from the International Energy Agency said Iraqi oil production could expand exponentially over the coming years. The IEA said Iraq could eventually pass Russia as a major oil exporter.Disputes over national oil laws, however, have cast a shadow over the Iraqi energy sector. The central government in Baghdad says it may be illegal for the Kurdish government to make its own deals, bypassing Baghdad.
