A production sharing contract has been chosen by the Kurdistan Regional Government as supposedly the most appropriate contract model for the oil and gas resources of the Kurdistan Region, among several other forms of contract. In general, in terms of royalty, cost recovery, and sharing the residual sales as negotiated, the Kurdish model is similar to its foreign model, although the proportions are most likely to differ. The model of the Region specified 10 percent for the Royalty: Up to 45 percent for cost recovery, often between 7-9 percent of the company's share of the profit in the agreement. Investigating Deloitte reports and then comparing the 2017 to 2019 data shows the unstable output with a fair boost and stability at the later date as for 2017. A large contribution from the Kirkuk oil fields to the production of the overall region is noted until 16 Oct 2017. Around one-third of the revenues of oil went to the production oil companies, although as agreed for cost recovery, it is still less than 40 percent. The payment of the companies of Oil production could be explained as a collective sum between 9% of the profit oil and 25-28% of the sales oil's gross values! The cost recovery payment could not have been funded in the contract, which explains the region's claim about the debts of the companies, in its agreed manner.
The use of energy sources in the world is increasing day by day, especially natural gas, and the Kurdistan Region is a naturally gas-rich region that has a rate of 5.6 trillion cubic meters, which can be a source of income and a role in economic diversity. Gas is a valuable source of electricity production and the resolution of electricity problems in the Kurdistan Region-Iraq. The study was used within the framework of the west's path to access information and research, the method of research, and the method of marketing at the local, regional and global levels. also, by marketing the natural gas of the Kurdistan Region and providing a suitable environment for investment.
