Iran oil exports surpasses 2 million bpd

“Iran’s exports of oil and gas condensate are now at more than 2 million barrels per day,” the minister told the Shana news agency in Tehran on Sunday.

Condensate is a light oil that is typically produced in association with natural gas. 

Senior nuclear negotiator Abbas Araqchi earlier said Iran had raised its crude oil exports to 1.7 million barrels per day (bpd), but it faced challenges for returning to pre-sanctions levels when the country sold 2.5 million barrels.

“Our customers have gone and concluded deals with other countries. We have to find new clients and nobody can expect us to return to former export rates overnight,” he said.

Araqchi predicted Iran’s oil exports to hit 2.5 million bpd within a year.

The Islamic Republic exported about 1 million bpd of oil under sanctions. Since the lifting of those restrictions, the country has been ramping up production in a bid to regain its market share.

The oil market is saturated amid oversupply by major producers such as Saudi Arabia.

The kingdom is currently pushing for a production freeze provided that other oil producing nations stop their output at current rates.

On Friday, deputy crown prince Mohammed bin Salman said Saudi Arabia would only freeze its oil output if Iran and other major producers did so.

Zangeneh has said Iran would take part in discussions on a possible production freeze after its output reached 4 million barrels per day.

The minister had already dismissed the idea of a production freeze by Iran as “a joke.”

“We do not intend to sanction ourselves again after coming out of the sanctions,” Deputy Petroleum Minister Amir Hossein Zamani said in February.

With Iran under sanctions, Saudi Arabia raised its output to an all-time high of more than 10.5 million barrels a day as did other producers, leading to an oversupply which has caused prices to nosedive around 70% since mid-2014.

Bin Salman’s remarks on Friday left the outcome of a meeting between OPEC and other big oil producers in Doha this month in question and sent prices sharply down.

In London and New York, oil prices sank more than four percent after the comments. Brent crude fell as much as $1.78 to $38.55 a barrel and West Texas Intermediate dropped $1.62 to $36.72 a barrel.

Iran’s DM Urges Halt to Fighting between Armenia, Azerbaijan

According to the Defense Ministry, Brigadier General Dehqan called for an immediate end to the military confrontation between the two northern neighbors of Iran.

In the telephone conversations with Azerbaijan’s Defense Minister Zakir Hasanov and Armenia’s Seyran Ohanian, the Iranian general called upon the two countries to exercise restraint and settle the conflicts through dialogue.

At least 30 soldiers have been killed in fighting between Armenian and Azerbaijani forces along the frontlines of the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region. Each side blames the other for the fighting that began overnight.

Azerbaijan said on Saturday that Armenian forces killed 12 of its soldiers and shot down a helicopter.

Azeri troops, meanwhile, killed 18 ethnic-Armenian soldiers, Armenian President Serzh Sarkisian said.

Nagorno-Karabakh has been under the control of Armenian military and separatists since a war between Armenia and Azerbaijan ended in 1994. Years of negotiations have brought little progress in resolving the dispute.

Fighting on Saturday marked the worst clashes since 1994, said David Babayan, spokesman for the region’s separatist president.

 

Iran Urges Restraint in Nagorno-Karabakh Fighting

Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Hossein Jaberi Ansari said the military clashes between Azerbaijan and Armenia cause “serious concern” for Iran.

“While the region is witnessing devastating activities by extremist groups and is in need of calm and stability, the worrying reports of escalated clashes between Azerbaijan and Armenia in the Nagorno-Karabakh region have deeply concerned the Islamic Republic of Iran,” the spokesman said on Saturday night.

He then called on the two neighbors to exercise restraint and avoid taking any measures that could exacerbate the situation.

Jaberi Ansari also asked Baku and Yerevan to put an immediate end to the fighting and do their utmost to settle the disputes in a peaceful manner and within the framework of peace organizations and the UN.

At least 30 soldiers have been killed in fighting between Armenian and Azerbaijani forces along the frontlines of the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region. Both sides blamed the other for the fighting that began overnight.

Azerbaijan said on Saturday that Armenian forces killed 12 of its soldiers and shot down a helicopter.

Azeri troops, meanwhile, killed 18 ethnic-Armenian soldiers, Armenian President Serzh Sarkisian said.

Nagorno-Karabakh has been under the control of Armenian military and separatists since a war between Armenia and Azerbaijan ended in 1994. Years of negotiations have brought little progress in resolving the dispute.

Fighting on Saturday marked the worst clashes since 1994, said David Babayan, spokesman for the region’s separatist president.

 

Speaker: Iran Should Continue Missile Power Development

larijani

Speaking at an open session of the parliament on Sunday, Larijani praised Iran’s ability to confront terrorists in the region, saying that “combative spirit and defense capabilities” are the main factors behind the country’s sustainable stability and strength to crack down on terrorists.

“Although some excuses recently raised by a number of Western countries about Iran’s missile (tests) are flimsy and legally worthless, they are indicative of their (westerners) long-term policy which (shows) that they do not want the Islamic Republic to be powerful enough to ensure regional security,” he noted.

“For this reason, we should insist on strengthening the country’s defense capability, especially in the field of missile,” Larijani added.

In a speech earlier on Saturday, the Iranian speaker had warned against US plots to impose new sanctions against Iran under pretexts other than the country’s peaceful nuclear program, saying it “indicates the necessity for being vigilant, watchful, and cautious in the face of their measures.”

Under current circumstances, the Westerners are seeking to impose new scenarios against Iran, Larijani warned, urging increased unity and solidarity among Iranian parties against the country’s enemies.

After the termination of nuclear-related anti-Iran sanctions in mid-January as per the nuclear deal between Tehran and world powers, the United States imposed new sanctions against Tehran later in January over its ballistic missile program, even as the world hailed the implementation of the historic nuclear deal which had been reached in July 2015.

 

Official: US hindering Iran’s recovery

Some Iranians are frustrated that economic recovery from years of sanctions is slow as banking transactions are still stricken with problems and the return of Iran’s capital from abroad is facing hurdles.

“Here, we are faced with two types of a new problem: one is returning to former conditions which will automatically take time; the other is that American obstructions have made it difficult,” Abbas Araqchi said Saturday night.

US and European businesses are reluctant to do business with Iran for fear of getting tangled in a thicket of US regulations months after sanctions were lifted on the Islamic Republic under a nuclear agreement.

Araqchi dismissed contentions that sanctions on Iran had been lifted “only on paper.”

“All the sanctions which were to be annulled have been canceled and those parts which had to stop have been halted. We are now facing a new situation,” Araqchi said.

“Sanctions were getting their legitimacy from Security Council resolutions which have been totally cancelled,” he added.

However, certain restrictions not related to Iran’s nuclear issue remain in place, Araqchi said, citing “primary sanctions” which the US has imposed on Iran over terrorism and human rights accusations.

“The overlapping of ‘primary’ and ‘secondary’ sanctions has created some problems and the Americans have not had the necessary cooperation in this regard yet,” he said.

Iran, however, has managed to remove some of the problems through pressuring the US, including those related to insurance for oil tankers, Araqchi said.

“Iran’s capabilities brought the Americans to the negotiating table and their obstructions are now normal,” he added.

The US has fined some of the largest international banks for trading for Iran. Araqchi said some of those banks had pledged not to deal with Iran, but Tehran was pressuring Washington to remove the restrictions.

“We knew that we would be facing breach of contract and malfeasance by the Americans when it came to the implementation (of the agreement),” he said.

US President Barack Obama has appeared to take further steps toward easing restrictions on Iran and allowing the country to begin trading in dollars.

Araqchi said Iran had raised its crude oil exports to 1.7 million barrels per day (bpd), but it faced challenges for returning to pre-sanctions levels when the country sold 2.5 million barrels.

“Our customers have gone and concluded deals with other countries. We have to find new clients and nobody can expect us to return to former export rates overnight,” he said.

Araqchi predicted Iran’s oil exports to hit 2.5 million bpd within a year.

As for the repatriation of Iranian assets abroad, the official put the sum above $100 billion, some of which belonged to the government while others were owned by the Central Bank and the Ministry of Petroleum or held in the form of deposits with Chinese banks.

Iran missiles not open to talks, compromise: Araqchi

“During the [nuclear] negotiations [with the P5+1 group of countries], we never allowed them to raise the issue of our country’s missile [program], because no wise individual will negotiate over his country’s security,” Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs Abbas Araqchi said in a televised interview Saturday night.

Referring to recent claims by the US and some European countries about Iran’s latest ballistic missile tests, the official said those countries have already brought up this issue at the UN Security Council twice, but have failed to make the body issue even a statement against Iran.

Araqchi stated that the US and the West frequently resort to the Security Council Resolution 2231 to call for a stop on Iran’s ballistic missile tests, adding, “The resolution calls upon Iran not to test or produce missiles which are capable of carrying nuclear warheads, but Iran has never developed missiles for this purpose.”

The Iranian deputy foreign minister reiterated that there is no evidence to show that Iran’s missiles are meant to carry nuclear warheads and therefore do not violate the Security Council Resolution 2231.

The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) successfully test-fired two ballistic missiles on March 9 as part of military drills to assess the IRGC’s capabilities. The missiles dubbed Qadr-H and Qadr-F were fired during large-scale drills, code-named Eqtedar-e-Velayat.

On March 8, Iran fired another ballistic missile called Qiam from silo-based launchers in different locations across the country.

On March 24, the US Treasury Department blacklisted two Iranian companies claiming that the firms backed Iran’s ballistic missile program. Washington also claimed that the companies are working for an industrial group, which the US alleges is in charge of Iran’s ballistic missile program.

Washington claims that Iran’s missile tests violate the UN Security Council Resolution 2231 that endorsed a nuclear agreement, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), reached between Iran and the P5+1 group of countries – the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany – on July 14, 2015.

Iran, however, has repeatedly announced that the missile launches were not against the Security Council resolution.

Resolution 2231 (2015) provides for the termination of the provisions of previous Security Council resolutions on the Iranian nuclear program, and calls on Iran not to undertake any activity related to ballistic missiles designed to be capable of delivering nuclear weapons, including launches using such ballistic missile technology.

IRGC busts terrorist group in southeast Iran

“In a coordinated operation conducted by the IRGC forces and the Shia and Sunni people of Sistan and Baluchestan, a terrorist group affiliated with Mojahedeen-e Khalq Organization (MKO) has been demolished south of Sistan and Baluchestan,” Tasnim news agency quoted Commander of the IRGC Ground Forces’ Quds Base Brigadier General Mohammad Marani as saying on Sunday.

He added that the terrorist group’s leader, Ahmad Sahouei, along with four other members of the cell, were killed during an operation by the IRGC forces.

The commander noted that provincial security forces were monitoring the criminal group, which has been conducting acts of murder and armed robbery, saying that weapons and ammunition were seized from the armed group.

The MKO has carried out numerous terrorist attacks against Iranian civilians and government officials over the past three decades. Out of the nearly 17,000 Iranians killed in terrorist attacks since the victory of Iran’s 1979 Islamic Revolution, about 12,000 have fallen victim to the acts of terror carried out by the MKO.

The group was viewed by the EU as terrorist until January 2009, when the EU Council lifted the designation under immense pressure from political lobbies. The decision was followed by the United States in September 2012.

Iran Newspaper front pages

Saturday, April 02, 2016 is the first working day in the new Iranian calendar year 1395 which began on March 20. No paper was published in Iran in the past fortnight as Iranians celebrate the first 13 days of the year as Nowruz and enjoy New Year holidays.

Most of the headlines focused on the leader’s speech on the first day of the year in which he underscored the need for materializing policies of the economy of resistance. The Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, also slammed the US for not honoring the nuclear deal by which Iran agreed to curb its nuclear program in exchange for removal of US-engineered draconian sanctions.

The administration’s firm resolution to revamp the economy and expectations about the economic climate in Iran in the New Year were also considered by most papers on the day.

Iran’s oil production up 100k bpd

Figures released by Bloomberg show that Iran’s overall crude output now stands at 3.2 million bpd which is the highest level since May 2012.

In mid-January, a series of economic sanctions that had been imposed on Iran for multiple years were removed after a deal between the country and the P5+1 – the five permanent members of the Security Council plus Germany – was implemented.

The sanctions barred foreign investments in the Iranian oil industry and also limited a low ceiling of 1 million bpd on the country’s oil exports.

Immediately after the removal of the sanctions, Iran both increased its oil output and subsequently its exports.

The country’s oil output rose by several hundred thousand barrels per day to reach around 1.4 million bpd.

Iran’s First Vice President Es’haq Jahangiri said in late March that the country’s oil exports had reached around 2.2 million bpd within two months after the removal of the sanctions on Iran.

Jahangiri said the figure marked a rise of 900,000 bpd in Iran’s oil production capacity.

Iran has already rejected calls by other fellow producers to freeze its post-sanctions oil output increase plans to help stabilize the prices.

The country’s Oil Minister Bijan Zangeneh has repeatedly emphasized that the Islamic Republic will press on with its plans to increase oil production – that had been restricted for several years as a result of the sanctions – to regain its lost market share.
