Sept 16 (Reuters) - Oil exports from Iraq's Basra Port were halted last night due to a spillage, oil sector sources said on Friday, adding that efforts to contain the spill could last more than a week.
Oil loading operations were halted from the port until it gets repaired, sources added.
The port has four loading platforms and can export up to 1.8 mln barrels per day.
