One of the big problems could be that no one really knows what the oil production goals actually are...

The CS Monitor Report states the goal is 2.5 million BPD:

That need can be seen in the nation's production levels. In the first quarter of 2007 Iraqi crude oil production averaged 1.95 million barrels per day, according to the US Special Inspector General. That's far short of the Iraqi goal of some 2.5 million BPD.
The SIGIR report (on page 39) shows the goal of 2.8 million BPD (based on an April 2006 inquiry to DOS).

The State Department Weekly Status Report shows the goal of 2.1 million BPD on page 17:

The goal seems to be a moving target...
