Halfaya Field is an Iraqi oil field, located east of Amarah. Halfaya is proven to hold 4.1 billion barrels (650,000,000 m³) of recoverable reserve and has production potential of 200,000–535,000 barrels per day (31,800–85,100 m³/d). The China National Petroleum Corporation-led group finished the first phase of development in June 2012, increasing production from 3,000 barrels per day (480 m³/d) to 100,000 barrels per day (16,000 m³/d) 15 months ahead of schedule.

CNPC has started preliminary work on the second phase of Halfaya, which will bring the capacity to 200,000 bpd.^[1]

In December 2009, the China National Petroleum Corporation was awarded a 50% stake in the development of the field and France's Total S.A. along with Malaysia's Petronas were awarded a 25% stake. The consortium plans production at 535,000 barrels per day (85,100 m³/d). ^[2]
