Iran says it won’t moderate its plans to boost oil supplies
In 2014, non-OPEC oil producers, including the US and Canada, increased their output, and toward the end of the year, OPEC held a meeting to determine its production quotas.

“From our point of view, it is unlikely that all the countries within OPEC can agree on production cuts, let alone those countries which are not in the OPEC coalition”, the RIA news agency quoted Novak as saying in an interview with RBC TV.
The official also pointed out that the ministry does not consider the possibility of oil prices falling to $10 per barrel.
The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries said the price of a basket of crudes produced by its 13 members was assessed at $25.69 on Wednesday. The short answer: An economic war between oil-rich Saudi Arabia and other oil producers, including Russia, Iran, Canada and the United States.
Iran’s return to an already glutted oil market is one of the factors contributing to a global rout in oil prices, which fell below $30 a barrel this week for the first time in 12 years. With selling its oil to lower prices Iran is seeking to attract more customers.
“There’s still the cloud of uncertainty around how much Iranian crude will come to market and when”, said Mills, Qamar Energy’s chief executive officer.
Slowing investment and construction in China, the world’s biggest energy user, is “sending an enormous deflationary impetus through to the world, and that is a significant part of what’s happening in this oil-price collapse”, Turner, former chairman of the U.K. Financial Services Authority, said in an interview with Bloomberg Television.
With the removal of sanctions that shackled its economy and capped crude oil sales, Iran is targeting an immediate increase in shipments of 500,000 barrels of oil a day.
However, in reality the OPEC production has been running at an average of 31.7 million barrels per day, with Saudi Arabia and Iraq pumping at or near record rates, the IEA said. At present there is about 250.000 bpd of oil, and there is more production over consumption.
Oil prices bounced up Thursday following sharp decline as traders bought the dip.
Rustam Tankayev is convinced that there will be a completely inevitable rise in oil prices: “The price level that we have now does not allow a sufficient amount of oil onto the world market”. Oil stocks and production remain high and global growth continues to falter. More productions would be in favor of consumers.
But concerns over mounting U.S. inventory continue to linger after the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s (EIA) latest supply report.

Slumping prices are a critical signal that the boom in lending in China is “unwinding”, according to Adair Turner, chairman of the Institute for New Economic Thinking.
