Situated in the Thi Qar province, approximately 5km northwest of Al-Refaei city and 85km north of Nasiriya, the Garraf oil field has an onshore location. Discovered in 1984, this oil field contains oil reserves within Cretaceous reservoirs. Spanning 17.5km in length and 5.5km in width, it is estimated to harbor 1.3 billion barrels of oil. Upon reaching full production, the field’s production capacity is projected to escalate to 230,000 barrels of oil per day (bopd). Transportation of the oil field’s products is facilitated through a 13km pipeline to the Gharraf-Badra tie-in area (GBTA). Subsequently, it is conveyed via a 28-inch, 92km pipeline to the Nassiriyah storage depot.

The JGTP Capacity Enhancement Project is an expansion and upgrading project for the Jordan Gas Transmission Pipeline, aimed at increasing transmission capacity to meet growing domestic demand and support regional gas trade. The project includes pipeline upgrades and the addition of compressor facilities to allow the system to operate at higher pressures and transport larger gas volumes. The Jordan Gas Transmission Pipeline has a 36-inch (914 mm) diameter and an ultimate transmission capacity of approximately 10 billion cubic metres (bcm) of natural gas per year.
