IRAQ is preparing to halve its official oil production target, forcing companies including BP and Shell to renegotiate their contracts.
The country's Oil Ministry, with backing from the Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, will set a new target to produce between 6.5 million and 7 million barrels per day by 2017, down from original plans to pump 12 million barrels, according to industry insiders.
