The crude oilpipeline in Kirkuk province that supplies Turkish port of Ceyhan has resumed pumping on Wednesday after being exposed to sabotage operations, a source in the North Oil Company said.
"The engineering and technical staff in the North Oil Company was able to repair the line carrier of crude oil in Kirkuk to the Turkish port of Ceyhan, which has stopped for one day after targeting it by a roadside bomb that led to serious damages in it" the source told "Shafaq News".
That line was targeted early on Monday, by a roadside bomb explosion that led to stop its supplies; this is the second attack within one month.
It is worth mentioning that gunmen attacked the oil pipeline that transports oil to the Turkish port of Ceyhan on the 6th of May, which halted crude supplies and resumed pumping last Sunday.
