Iran Raises Oil Reserves, Retains Spot Ahead of Iraq, IRNA Says

By Ali Sheikholeslami - 2010-10-11T10:02:48Z

Iran’s proven oil reserves have reached 150.31 billion barrels, state-run Islamic Republic News Agency said, citing Oil Minister Masoud Mir-Kazemi.

The figure is set to increase by the end of the Iranian year, or March 20, he said. Natural gas reserves have topped 33 trillion cubic meters, Mir-Kazemi said in a news conference today, according to IRNA.

The increase comes after neighbor Iraq bolstered its oil estimate Oct. 4 to 143.1 billion barrels, overtaking Iran as home to the world’s fourth-largest petroleum deposits.

Iran’s reserves was previously at 136.6 billion barrels, according to BP Plc’s Statistical Review of World Energy.
