    Despite the multiplicity of ports in the province of Basra, which is the only outlet of Iraq on the Gulf, but these ports are unable to meet the movement of transport of goods received to the country, in light of deteriorating operating conditions under the influence of government negligence and the control of armed militias.

    "Those who do not pay to liquidate or obstruct the completion of transactions and not allow the imported goods to pass, as well as funds," adding that the money obtained by the militias estimated tens of millions of dollars annually.
    One of the employees of Basra Ports Company in an interview with the "New Arab" that corruption and neglect control the work of ports, which became without control controls, adding that there are no laboratories or examination and checking, while it existed before the Americans occupy the country.
    "We import everything without real scrutiny or good inspection of the imported goods, and there is a return in cleanliness and services, despite the achievement of large revenues, but there are those who share or compete with them and each party claims its priority and right in it," pointing out that the lack of development of sidewalks and deepening the corridors Prevents the reception of giant vessels and a variety of containers.
    The Iraqi Ministry of Transport has recently announced that Iraq is seeking to develop its ports to be able to receive 50 million tons per year of various materials through 2020.
    The port of Umm Qasr, which was established in 1932 and is located near the Iraqi-Kuwaiti border in the north of the Arabian Gulf, is one of the most important ports in Iraq. It is managed by the General Company for Iraqi Ports, but it is currently being marginalized by the authorities. In the Gulf region, according to a company official.
    The port of Basra oil, one of the two ports allocated for the export of oil and through which are being exported millions of barrels of crude, which is the main source of financial resources for Iraq, while reports indicate that the neglect of the work of the port.
    A team of the Iraqi Integrity Commission, revealed in a report earlier this June, the continued imposition of fines on the Iraqi Oil Marketing Company (SOMO) due to delays in the loading and unloading of oil tankers, where the fines imposed during 2017 more than one hundred million In addition to $ 13.6 million in financial penalties for the company in respect of service contracts for crude oil during the same period.
    The Panel noted that its team "noted the lack of compliance with the amounts of crude oil approved for export; the continued disruption of power in the southern ports repeatedly damaged the tables for export and load carriers, and the lack of storage capacity and piping networks and the need to increase capacity, while the addition of pumping equipment and pipes in ports "He said.
    Iraq's oil exports from southern ports amounted to 3.521 million barrels per day on average in June, slightly above the average of May, which saw the export of 3.490 million barrels per day, according to a statement issued by the Iraqi Oil Ministry earlier this week.
