<p>The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child, everywhere, in everything the organization does in programmes, in advocacy and in operations. The equity strategy, emphasizing the most disadvantaged and excluded children and families, translates this commitment to children s rights into action. For UNICEF, equity means that all children have an opportunity to survive, develop and reach their full potential, without discrimination, bias or favoritism. To the degree that any child has an unequal chance in life in its social, political, economic, civic and cultural dimensions her or his rights are violated. There is growing evidence that investing in the health, education and protection of a society s most disadvantaged citizens addressing inequity not only will give all children the opportunity to fulfill their potential but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries.

It is estimated that some 17 billion barrels of recoverable oil are still contained within Rumaila’s reservoirs.</p> <p>The field is located 50km to the west of the city of Basra, southern Iraq. The Basra region is home to all six of Iraq’s ports, including the deep-water facility at Umm Qasr.</p> <p>Rumaila encompasses a vast area of 1,600 square kilometres, extending approximately 80km north to south and 20km west to east, with the main anticline consisting of two domes, South Rumaila and North Rumaila.</p> <p>Rumaila is part of the Iraq Basra Oil Company (BOC) family of oilfields. It is the largest producing field in Iraq, responsible for producing over 33% of Iraq’s oil. Oil has been produced at Rumaila for well over 50 years. A technical service contract signed in 2009 and extended in 2014, between BOC and BP, Petro-China and the State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO) is now driving the transformation of Rumaila into a sustainable world-class oilfield for Iraq and its people. This 25 year contract (to 2034) has laid the foundation for the long-term renewal of the field.</p> <p>This demands significant investment in infrastructure, technology and people. Progress is already visible and the oilfield is returning to full efficiency. Average daily production has increased by over 40% since mid-2009. World-class training and safety standards have been introduced. Around 7,000 people work at Rumaila and over 22,000 contractors support Rumaila’s activities through a large supply chain. The vast majority of these people are Iraqi.</p> <p>The next stage of Rumaila’s development is to access previously untapped reservoirs to extend the life of the field and deliver increased production.</p> <p>Our people are key to all of this. We are aiming to create an exemplary record for safety. We are building skills and capabilities. We are developing a culture built on respect for each other, with an ethos to behave responsibly in everything we do – be that in our corporate governance or in the way we safeguard our environment. This is how we will build a reputation as a great place to work and with whom to do business. Most importantly we want to ensure we are a good neighbour to the people and communities.</p> <p>Working together as one team under the technical service contract, the Basra Oil Company (BOC) and the State Oil Marketing Organisation (SOMO) along with contractors, BP and PetroChina, bring a range of different expertise and skills in modernizing this supergiant field.</p></p><p></p>
