Iran has managed to increase its crude oil and gas condensate exports over the past 20 months by adopting active energy diplomacy despite international sanctions against its petroleum industry. National Iranian South Oil Company (NISOC), the largest oil producer in Iran, has recently brought its output to a record 2.45 mb/d. Gholamreza Nourani, the acting director of production at NISOC, tells “Iran Petroleum” the company increased its oil production by 47% in two years.
