BASRA - Iraq has regained partial use of the Al-Basra Oil Terminal after it went offline early Friday due to a leak that spilled large volumes of crude into the Basra Gulf.
Six Iraqi officials, two at the Oil Ministry and four at the state-run Basra Oil Company (BOC), said oil flows to ABOT stopped completely before dawn on Friday because of leaks.
