    Iraq to set oil price at $32 in 2016 budget



    BAGHDAD, 0 hours, 44 minutes ago

     
    Iraq plans to lower the oil price forecast in its 2016 budget to about $32 a barrel from $45, widening its fiscal deficit by several billion dollars, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and a senior government official told Reuters.

    The new price estimate is based on the continued low level of global oil prices in recent months, said Marwa al-Nasaa, Amman-based IMF resident representative for Iraq.

    "We're setting it closer to $30 based on the climate of international futures prices since November," she told Reuters on Thursday.

    The adjustment is expected to add about $6 billion to the OPEC producer's budget deficit unless offsetting measures are taken, said the Iraqi official, who requested anonymity to speak about ongoing government deliberations.

    Iraq's current budget, which projects oil exports of 3.6 million barrels per day, predicts a deficit of 24 trillion Iraqi dinars ($20.56 billion).

    The drop in oil prices over the past two years has battered Baghdad's finances as it wages a battle against Islamic State militants in the north and west and confronts a political crisis that threatens to bring down the government.

    Iraq, which relies on oil for more than 90 percent of its revenue and sells at a discount to global benchmark crudes, earned an average of $24 a barrel in the first two months of the year and $28 in March, the Iraqi official said late on Wednesday. "We have to rebuild the budget taking this into consideration."

    The revised budget, which has not been finalised, is part of Iraq's negotiations for a standby agreement (SBA) with the IMF, the official added. The SBA financing could be approved as early as June, unlocking $15 billion in international assistance over the next three years.

    "If an SBA is reached, part of that financing gap will be met by IMF and other donor financing, but it will not close the entire gap," Nasaa said.

    "A number of measures are going to have to come from the government itself to increase revenues and bring expenditure in line with the new revenue reality. It has to be a combination of both."

    The Iraqi official declined to specify what measures Baghdad would take to reduce the deficit, but said: "It is a must, otherwise we will have to borrow more and more." – Reuters

    The International Monetary Fund and the senior government official, that Iraq intends to reduce the price of oil is expected in the 2016 budget to around $ 32 a barrel from $ 45, which would increase the deficit by several billion dollars.
    It quoted "Reuters", for "Marwa Alencah," Resident Mission of the International Monetary Fund Representative for Iraq, saying that the new price estimate is based on the continuation of the low level of world oil prices in recent months.
    And it showed "Alencah" resident in Amman, "might make it closer to $ 30 based on the climate of global futures prices since November."
    It is expected that the amendment increases the country's budget deficit OPEC member about six billion dollars in the case of failure to take compensatory measures, according to the Iraqi official, who requested anonymity, "Reuters," in order to talk about the ongoing intergovernmental consultations.
    The current budget expects oil exports of 3.6 million barrels per day and a deficit of 24 trillion Iraqi dinars (20.56 billion dollars).
    The decline in oil prices over the last two years, the financial situation of Baghdad that fights to organize Daash in the north, west and facing a political crisis that threatens to topple the government has been devastated.
    The Iraqi official, said that "Iraq, which relies on oil for more than 90 percent of its revenues and sells for less than the global measurement ore prices had made an average of $ 24 a barrel in the first two months of the year and $ 28 in March.
    And "re-build the budget, taking this into account."
    The official added that the revised budget is not final yet are part of Iraq's negotiations for a loan under the demand of the International Monetary Fund. The funding gets approved by June, which would allow international aid worth $ 15 billion for the next three years.
    She Alencah "in the case to reach a loan agreement under the demand Vsasd Monetary Fund and other donors, part of the financing gap but it will not fill the entire gap, and should be a number of actions from the government itself comes to increase revenue and control spending on the basis of the new reality of revenue. Should blend between the two." .
    He declined to Iraq responsible for the actions they would take Baghdad to reduce the deficit, but said "it is inevitable. Otherwise we will be forced to borrow increasingly."

    So wouldn't this mean the goal of 45 a barrel for 30 days would now be 32?
