Repairs, protests halt a tenth of Iraqi oil output
01:35am, Saturday, 26'th Feb 2022 Rappler
LONDON, United Kingdom – Iraq has halted over a tenth of its oil output due to maintenance and protests, in a further blow to the already tight global supply at a time of rising demand and soaring prices . Iraq has temporarily shut down its southern 400,000-barrel-a-day West Qurna 2 oil field until March 2 to 10, two state oil officials with knowledge of the field’s operations said on Friday, February 25. One official said the maintenance included work on new wells and the linking of new pipelines, and added that Iraq would make up for the shortfall in production. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not allowed to give statements to the media. West Qurna 2 is operated by Russia’s Lukoil. Iraq has also halted a further 80,000 barrels per day (bpd) of oil production and exports from its Nassiriya oil field due to worker safety concerns, Iraq’s state-owned Dhi Qar Oil Company said on Friday. University graduates have engaged in violent protests in the southern Dhi Qar province in recent days to demand jobs.
California governor ends 12 emergencies, but not for COVID
01:26am, Saturday, 26'th Feb 2022 New Haven Register
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Multiple California emergencies declared by the last two governors officially ended on Friday — including for heat waves, an oil spill, wildfires and the civil unrest in reaction to George Floyd''s murder — but Gov. Gavin Newsom said the threat from the coronavirus lives on and so does the emergency he declared for it nearly two years ago. In all, Newsom signed an order ending 12 state of emergency declarations, which automatically terminate any associated executive orders relating to those events. But he offered no timeline for ending the statewide coronavirus emergency, meaning he will continue to wield broad authority to change or suspend state laws in response to the pandemic. Newsom has used that authority to issue 561 orders since the pandemic began. Some were relatively small, like delaying deadlines for filing taxes or renewing driver’s licenses. Others were big, like issuing a statewide stay-at-home order that put millions of people out of work. Newsom began lifting many of those orders last summer, when he declared the state had “reopened” following a decline in new cases and hospitalizations.
