Iran's oil trade is unaffected by international banking pressure and the country is exporting just over 2.4 million barrels per day of crude, a senior Iranian oil official said on Thursday.
"We have no problems with transactions for exports of crude or imports of products," Hojjatollah Ghanimifard, international affairs director at the state-owned National Iranian Oil Company, told Reuters. Iran is increasing gas oil imports and has reduced fuel oil exports to meet increased heating needs due to cold weather, he said.
