TEHRAN, Mar 12 (NNN-IRNA) – The head of National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC) said yesterday, Iran is ready to supply required oil for the world market and stabilise prices.
The Iranian government has made every effort to regain Iran’s oil share in the market, and to increase it, Mohsen Khojasteh Mehr, the CEO of NIOC said.
“Necessary measures are being taken for the sanctions and post-sanctions time” for Iran to return to the world market, he was quoted as saying.
Iran’s position in supplying the world with oil is special, he said, adding that, European refiners are confident that Iran is a sustainable supplier of energy.
“At the NIOC, we are ready to meet the needs of the European companies, along with other companies,” he noted.
Iran is fully prepared to supply whatever the market wants from Iran’s oil, Khojasteh Mehr stressed.
Iran’s oil industry and its exports have been under U.S. unilateral sanctions, since the summer of 2018, after the former U.S. president withdrew Washington from the 2015 nuclear deal, and reinstated new sanctions against the country.– NNN-IRNA
