Tehran has become the fourth largest oil exporter within the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) due to a surge in oil production and sales, according to a report.
Iran’s oil and gas condensate exports have now reached their highest level since 2018, when the United States withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal and introduced tough economic sanctions against the country, targeting its oil sales in particular, according to a report by Vortexa, which provides data on the global energy sector.
The report emphasized that Iran’s oil and gas condensate exports now account for 9% of OPEC’s total crude oil and gas condensate exports.
Iran exported 1.56 million barrels of oil per day from January to May of this year, 250,000 bpd more than Kuwait and Nigeria. This has elevated Iran’s ranking to the fourth spot among OPEC’s largest crude oil exporters.
Despite Western sanctions, Iran managed to increase its crude oil and gas exports to 1.7 million bpd in May, the highest level in the past five years.
The report cited the rise in Chinese oil demand and the expansion of Iran’s oil tanker fleet as the main factors contributing to the surge in Iran’s oil exports.
