A fire at Iraq’s Baiji oil complex has been extinguished with no reported impact on refinery output, according to the Iraqi state news agency.
Civil defense teams contained the blaze at the facility, located 180 kilometers north of Baghdad, with no injuries reported.
The incident did not trigger a significant repricing in global crude markets, as traders assessed the damage as contained and non-disruptive to supply flows.
Brent crude remained steady in the session, reflecting the limited operational impact of the event.
Baiji is one of Iraq’s largest refining hubs, and any sustained disruption there could tighten regional fuel supplies.
However, the quick containment by civil defense authorities suggests the incident was isolated and did not compromise broader production capabilities.
