After elimination of sanctions in 2016, based on nuclear agreement, Iran resumed its oil exports.
The country’s crude oil export stood at 2.115 million barrels per day in last fiscal year.
Iran’s crude oil and condensate exports currently stand at about 2.6 million barrels per day (mb/d), including 2.3 mb/d of crude oil and 300,000 b/d of condensate.
