BAGHDAD, Iraq - Iraq's sabotage-prone northern pipeline has been shut down for maintenance, halting crude oil exports from Kirkuk oil fields to Turkey's Ceyhan port, the oil minister said Sunday.
Hussein al-Shahristani said the flow is expected to resume in two to three days at an average of 400,000 barrels per day."
