In recent months, Iran has consistently announced that it is increasing its oil production and exports despite maintaining US sanctions.
A review of monthly reports from the Organization of the Petroleum Producing Countries (OPEC) also confirms this question.
OPEC announced in its latest report that Iran was able to take third place in oil production among the members of this organization.
This is despite the fact that the country's oil production has declined due to sanctions imposed by previous governments and Iran has reached fifth place in OPEC.
Now, as Javad Oji, Minister of Oil, said, Iran is no longer obliged to reduce its production of oil and gas condensates, but it also exports its oil to any part of the world.
According to him, oil production reached 3.3 million barrels per day from around 2.3 million barrels per day at the start of the 13th administration, representing an increase of 43% in this regard.
The increase in Iran's oil production and exports has also had a positive effect on the country's economic indicators, as the country's economic growth this spring was 6.2% with oil and 5 .2% without oil, according to Central Bank statistics.
This means that the presence of oil in this economic index has had a positive effect.
Comparing this year's figures with economic growth in the first quarter of 2022 shows an increase more than three times the country's economic growth.
Although all groups reported positive economic growth this spring, oil was first in this regard.
Oil economic growth this spring was 16.4%, an increase of more than 368% compared to spring 2022.
Growth in this sector was announced at 3.5% in the spring of last year.
The services, industries and agriculture sectors also grew by 6.2%, 3.7% and 2.2% respectively in spring 2023.
The share of oil groups, services, industry and agriculture was 1.5, 3.6, 0.8 and 0.2 percent respectively of the 6.2 percent growth achieved in the first quarter 2023.
The important point is that according to these figures, 24% of the country's gross domestic product growth this spring was achieved through increased oil production and exports, while this spring's non-oil economic growth by compared to this figure in A 205% increase Last spring shows that statistics indicate a 226% increase in economic growth, including oil, this spring compared to 2022.
This also highlights the positive effect of oil on increasing GDP.
