Basrah - Day Rate for Senior Role

A
#1
Offered $1400 day rate on a 28/28 contract as an expat Engineer in Basrah and I was wondering if this is up to current market rates for expats because I saw earlier posts from 2015 with similar day rates? Surely rates have not remained the same since 2015?

Any advice would be helpful. Thanks!

Hi mate, am an engineer from Baghdad, I may be able to help with that if I know the company so that I can make some phone calls with some friends in Basrah.
