"Crude oil supplies to India come from Iraq's Basra oilfields which are far from the conflict zone in the **rtheast of the country. Loading of tankers from the Basra oil terminal is continuing **rmally," the official added. Iraq is India's second largest crude oil supplier after Saudi Arabia, supplying about 25 million tonnes (MT) in 2013-14, to meet over 13 percent of India's oil needs.
