About
Tiraz Works is a one-person studio in Erbil. It makes Iraqi oil, gas and contracting companies look as good as their work in front of international companies, in Arabic and English.

You deal with me directly, from the review to delivery. Two languages, a technical background, and knowledge of what oil companies and EPC contractors ask of their suppliers.
I take one full project a month, because every file is written from scratch in both languages.

The name
A tiraz was an inscribed band woven into official cloth to carry a name and a seal. We make the same thing for your company: an official mark that says who you are, clearly and with confidence.
Our logo sets three rhombic nuqtas, the calligrapher’s unit of measure, between the two rules of a tiraz band, beside «طراز» in square Kufic. Kufic was born in Kufa, in Iraq.
How we work
01
Numbers and names, not adjectives
No “integrated solutions”. We write what the reviewer looks for: the figure, the date, the issuer.
02
Two languages, each written natively
No translating one into the other. Arabic is never a small line under English.
03
One fact sheet
Your legal name, numbers and certificates in one sheet you sign off; every file is built from it.
04
We never make a certificate or a figure
If a document is missing we tell you plainly, and recommend who can fix it.
05
No public criticism of anyone
Your review is sent to you alone.
