01 · About us
Twenty-eight years of upstream, midstream and downstream operations — from wellhead to distribution terminal.
Founded in 1997, KURAN Petroleum began as a single wellhead near Erbil and has grown into a vertically integrated producer with seven operational sites across the Kurdistan Region. We serve state partners, international traders, and regional industry with reliable, specification-grade hydrocarbons.
