Iraq Oil Exports to U.S. Decline Amid Weekly Market Shifts

Iraq’s oil exports to the U.S. declined during the latest weekly reporting period. The country shipped around 109,000 barrels per day to the United States. This marks a drop from 120,000 barrels per day the previous week. As a result, Iraq’s oil exports to the U.S. declined by about 11,000 barrels per day.

At the same time, total U.S. crude imports from major suppliers also decreased. Imports fell by nearly 947,000 barrels per day compared to the previous week. This broader decline signals weaker overall inflows into the U.S. market.

Canada continued to lead all suppliers with about 3.519 million barrels per day. Saudi Arabia followed with roughly 515,000 barrels per day. Venezuela also maintained strong shipments at around 499,000 barrels per day. Mexico contributed approximately 248,000 barrels per day during the same period.

In addition, Brazil supplied close to 240,000 barrels per day. Colombia added about 138,000 barrels per day to U.S. imports. Nigeria also shipped nearly 136,000 barrels per day. However, Libya and Ecuador recorded no exports to the United States this week.

These changes show a shifting pattern in global crude trade flows. Moreover, Iraq’s oil exports to the U.S. decline highlights fluctuations among key suppliers. Analysts often link such movements to refinery demand and shipping conditions.

Furthermore, market conditions continue to influence weekly import volumes. Pricing trends and logistical adjustments also play a key role. As a result, supply patterns often change from week to week.

Overall, US crude imports remain heavily dependent on a few major exporters. North American and Middle Eastern producers still dominate supply volumes. Still, Iraq’s decline in oil exports to the U.S. stands out within the latest data.
