石油设备网讯 据Arab Times网站5月27日科威特城报道，科威特和卡塔尔时下正在寻求使用伊拉克的石油和天然气管道作为他们通过库尔德斯坦向北运送石油和天然气到土耳其一个港口出口的替代路线，但目前还没有敲定任何协议。
科威特Al-Anba日报援引油气360网站的话报道说，日益混乱的石油贸易可能会推高油价，从而使美国人加满油箱的成本更高。
限制霍尔木兹海峡的原油运输是这一战略的一部分。根据美国能源信息署(EIA)的统计数据，2016年，每天有超过1850多万桶石油和石油液体从阿拉伯湾通过霍尔木兹海峡，使其成为世界上最大的海上石油咽喉点。

Kuwait and Qatar looking to use Iraqi pipelines
Kuwait and Qatar are looking to use the Iraqi pipelines as an alternate route for oil and gas shipments north through Kurdistan to a Turkish port for export, but nothing has been finalized, reports Al-Anba daily.
The daily quoting oilandgas360.com said 'Disrupting the oil trade could send oil prices upward, making it more expensive for Americans to fill up their gas tanks.
Hampering crude oil shipments in the Straits of Hormuz as part of that strategy. More than 18.5 million barrels of oil and petroleum liquids per day moved through the Straits of Hormuz from the Arabian Gulf in 2016, according to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), making it the world's largest maritime oil choke point and vulnerable to bad actors.
