Lukoil Business Halt

description

Lukoil plans to halt gasoline sales to Iran in the near future. Lukoil is not a major sales partner with the Islamic Republic, exporting only 250,000 to 500,000 barrels of gasoline to Iran every other month compared to Total's monthly shipment of over 1 million barrels. This business halt, combined with Lukoil’s recent withdrawal from a major project in Iran, is a sign that the company has decided to withdraw completely from the Iranian market.
