Oil Production Freeze to Decrease Refinement by 1.3 Mln Barrels per Day
In August 2015, Tehran and six international mediators, including Russia, reached a historic deal with Iran, which was set to ensure the peaceful nature of its nuclear program in exchange for the termination of anti-Tehran sanctions, in particular in oil sector.

In mid-January, the sanctions were removed after the International Atomic Energy Agency verified Tehran’s compliance with the nuclear agreement. The move makes it possible for Iran to pursue the role of an active player on the global oil market.
