Iran's oil minister quoted on Reuters

  • it is not a matter of discussion to limit production of Iran
  • OPEC members have lost so much money it seems we can not change situation in short term
  • OPEC action should not be subjected to non-OPEC members
  • we are capable to increase Iran's production by at least 0.5mln bpd after sanctions lifted, rising to 1mln bpd
