DUBAI - Iran has discovered a new oilfield in the southwest of the country that has the potential to boost its reserves by about a third, President Hassan Rouhani said on Sunday. “Workers and the exploration arm of the National Iranian Oil Company ...have found an oilfield with 53 billion barrels of reserves,” Rouhani said in a televised speech in the central city of Yazd.Iran ranks as the world’s fourth–largest reserve holder of oil, and the second-largest holder of gas reserves, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration .
Iran had an estimated 157 billion barrels of proved crude oil reserves in January 2018, the EIA website said. Since withdrawing from Iran’s 2015 nuclear deal with world powers, the United States has reimposed sanctions to strangle its vital oil trade.
Trump puts marines on standby!
Does this mean gas prices will go below $1? No because it needs to be refined.
Iran just put a target on their back. No worries, America will be there to ‘help out’ soon enough.
I’ve got a funny feeling there is going to be an excuse for war there very soon.
The grammar on this tweet also makes me think maybe it’s like a deep state plant of an article to mess the global economy
Rohani à Trump: même pas mal! petrole Iran sanctions nucleaire
Are you seducing americans? Be careful they really bomb Iran!🤣🤣🤣
Oil scarcity is opec propaganda ; we won’t run out for several more generations , worst case scenario. Best case oil is semi renewable
better hide those poker chips on the way out of the casino
Are they actually TRYING to be invaded by America by announcing this?
53 billion isn’t that much. The world uses 1 billion every 11 days.
Where will they sell? More sanctions will follow.
Oh good. Let’s burn that.
Just leave it there.
Just think our great ex-President Obama gave them 150 billion dollars for what? Like they needed it. The weak passivist Obama tried to buy their friendship when they HATE America. Obama drew a line in the sand and got it kicked back in his face.
That should cover Corbyns election shortfall.
That's just crude!
If world leaders would push harder for sustainable energy these new oil fields would be worthless and this would not matter!
Good for them only were not the know allow them to sell it for a 100 years or so
Shhhhh you will get invaded
GretaThunberg needs to take the fight to Iran 😂

😂😂Sure they did!!
Iran says.....🤔
Just after Saudi Arabia announced new oil reserve discovery. Are both real and independently verified or just like flying?
Should keep them going for a while given that they can’t sell it to the rest of the world JustSaying
Oil may not be what it’s believed to be.The Kola super deep well in Russia detected oil past where any life had ever existed,but since it was Russia during the Cold War it wasn’t considered credible.The theory is called the Abiogenic Petroleum Origin Theory,unrenewable means $$$.
The more oilfinds in Iran means more conflicts there.U S &Gulf nation's don't want them to explore it.Imagine Shah's of Iran still rule that Country other nations will be flocking to Iran & Gulf countries will be nowhere to them.Religious fanatics kills nation's prosperity.
Time to begin operation Iranian freedom I suppose.
S-300 better be up and running
TO VAM BOJO AMERIČANI VZELI Z SABOTAŽO hehehehe
What next with this new discovery
Some oil should flow downhill to India
Dumb announcement. Now Trump WILL start that war he's gunning to have with Iran. For the oil.
Excuse me if I am slightly dubious.
Meanwhile USA :
If the regime stayed in power which i doubt it , it will waste this wealth like what it was doing for the last 4 decades
Leave it there and change your power needs to a non polluting source! Let the towel heads drown in the black death!
They were all getting to leave when he arrived, because they could no boo , shout Lock Him Up
The green new deal just got dealt the Joker.
The US will be like
