President of LUKOIL Vagit Alekperov, on business trip in Baghdad, had a meeting with Prime Minister of Iraq Adil Abdul-Mahdi. The meeting was attended by the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Russian Federation to the Republic of Iraq, Maksim Maksimov.

The parties discussed the current status of projects, among them the geological exploration at Eridu field (Block 10) in the south of Iraq.
