Russia Country Analysis Brief

(Mon, 29 Apr 2024) Russia was the world’s second-highest dry natural gas producer and exporter, the third-highest crude oil and condensate producer, and the third-highest coal exporter in 2022. After Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine that same year, G7 economies, the EU, and other countries, began imposing sanctions including targeted measures on Russia’s energy sector. These sanctions expedited a shift in Russia’s trade toward Asia, relying more heavily on seaborne shipments because of limited eastbound rail and pipeline infrastructure.

Congo (Brazzaville) Country Analysis Brief

(Thu, 04 Apr 2024) The Republic of the Congo, or Congo Brazzaville, is a significant regional hydrocarbons producer in sub-Saharan Africa. Most of Congo Brazzaville’s hydrocarbons production is located offshore. Congo Brazzaville holds sizable proved natural gas reserves but only a small portion of the reserves is commercialized because of a lack of natural gas infrastructure. Congo Brazzaville exports most of its crude oil production, and revenues from crude oil exports play a large role in its economy, making its economy vulnerable to crude oil price volatility.

Iraq Country Analysis Brief

(Wed, 14 Feb 2024) Iraq holds some of the world’s largest oil reserves and is the second-largest producer in OPEC after Saudi Arabia. Although Iraq intends to increase its crude oil production capacity, Iraq’s export infrastructure is constrained and midstream projects are often delayed because of insufficient investment and bureaucratic hurdles. In addition, Turkey stopped crude oil flows from northern Iraq through the Iraq-to-Turkey pipeline in March 2023, which has severely limited northern Iraq’s crude oil exports.
