Why Erbil needs drum couplings
Capital of the Kurdistan Region, with its own oil sector and a busy construction and trading economy. Couplings absorb shock and misalignment between motors and driven equipment; their rubber elements and gear teeth wear and are replaced during planned shutdowns.
Iraq holds some of the world's largest oil reserves and is rebuilding power, water and housing infrastructure after years of conflict. Umm Qasr near Basra is the main seaport, with northern cargo often routed through Turkey.
