Deadline November 4<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The U.S. is pressing allies to end all imports of Iranian oil by a Nov. 4 deadline<\/a> and doesn\u2019t want to offer any extensions or waivers as it follows through on President Donald Trump\u2019s decision to quit the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, a State Department official said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

When Trump announced the U.S. was quitting the nuclear accord he warned that other nations would face sanctions unless they stopped trading with the Islamic Republic. Iran reached the 2015 agreement, which called for it to curb its nuclear program in return for the easing of sanctions, with the U.S., the U.K., France, Germany, China and Russia.<\/p>\n

Saudi Arabia has a maximum production capacity of just above 12 million barrels a day, according to the International Energy Agency. If Iran exports drop more than one million barrels a day, Riyadh is likely to have to pump at maximum capacity for the first time since the late 1960s.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf Saudi Arabia can not offset the loss of Iranian oil, then Washington could always tap into its Strategic Petroleum Reserve. So could China,\u201d said Jan Stuart, an oil economist at consultant Cornerstone Macro LLC in New York.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
