Iraq has approved a plan to expand its oil export routes by adding capacity from its northern fields and building a pipeline to ship oil from southern fields to Ceyhan in Turkey, a government spokesman said.

Hormuz: A pipeline from the south and added capacity from the North would help Iraq if the Strait was closed.
