Iranian oil production has surpassed 3 million barrels per day, Iran’s Oil Minister Javad Owji said, according to the Oil Ministry’s website SHANA.
“Over the last 20 months, Iran’s oil production has reached levels above 3 million barrels per day and natural gas output has reached more than 1 billion cubic meters," Owji said.
Iran pumped 2.4 million barrels per day on average in 2021 and has been under U.S. sanctions since 2018 when the then-U.S. President Donald Trump withdrew from a 2015 nuclear deal allowing Tehran to sell oil globally.
