ERBIL, Kurdistan Region - Shipments of remaining liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) stored inside the Khor Mor gas field began moving to cities across the Kurdistan Region on Saturday, as maintenance teams continue repairs following a drone attack that halted production three days earlier.

Rudaw has learned that liquid products still held in storage are being emptied, and that the LPG plant itself has not yet resumed operations.

Eight tankers departed the facility on Saturday carrying full loads of LPG to various destinations across the Kurdistan Region, Rudaw’s Arkan Ali reported from the site.

“Today at 9 a.m., we were called to load LPG. Like on any normal day, we went there and loaded the gas,” said driver Yousif Nuri.

Nuri added that maintenance crews are still working to repair damage to the storage facilities struck in the attack.

Khor Mor is the Kurdistan Region’s primary source of LPG and natural gas for electricity generation. The strike caused an estimated 80 percent drop in power production, according to Ministry of Electricity spokesperson Omed Ahmed. There is currently no timeline for full restoration.

Located in the Chamchamal district of Sulaimani province, the field is operated by Pearl Petroleum, a consortium that includes UAE-based Dana Gas and Crescent Petroleum.

The Kurdish and Iraqi interior ministries are jointly investigating the attack and expect preliminary findings within 72 hours. No group has claimed responsibility.

Oil and gas infrastructure in the Kurdistan Region has been targeted dozens of times in recent years, with Kurdish officials blaming the attacks on militia factions formally tied to Iraq’s security apparatus but operating outside government control.
